Be a Man : Book 2: Social Skills
Overview
A Complete Guide to Social Mastery Every friendship, romance, adventure, career break, open door, and unexpected turn that made your life worth living started with the courage to talk to someone new. The man who creates a great impression before he speaks, can talk to anyone, be liked and respected, lead a group, entertain an audience and make people laugh gets more out of life than one who can't. Most men live small because they don't have the confidence to stand up and be seen. They fail to connect, to understand and appreciate those around them. They don't take the reins. They open their mouths, then beat themselves up in their heads on the drive home. Most men learned their social skills at school. This is the PhD.
