IMPROVE YOUR SOCIAL SKILLS: Overcome Shyness and Social Anxiety, Increase Your Self-Esteem and Improve Your Conversation Skills

Written by benjamin p. barnes

Narrated by David Martin

Often, when we were children, we are taught not to think about something to say, but simply to accept whatever we are told. In school and in the family, adults are educating us not to do this and not to do that, they are giving us instructions about "good manners" and things like that, but in most cases they haven't taught us in detail how to build good and long-lasting relationships with our counterparts. Growing up, we get used to rebelling, threatening others, or we started shutting ourselves in. 

The good news is that there are simple skills that we can learn and that can change our difficult relationships in a positive way, and that at the same time can help us build new and successful connections.

If it is true that we are' social animals,' it is essential to learn the skills that give us the opportunity to improve our social life.

Reviews for IMPROVE YOUR SOCIAL SKILLS

[Olivia Rose · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The author writes simply and is very encouraging. I now have a better understanding of conversational skills and am putting to use what I learned here. My only complaint is that this book, as well as many others I have read lately, needs better proofreading! Years ago you never saw mistakes in a book. Now I find mistakes all the time. What's going on?

While many guides promote tricks and gimmicks to put people down and artificially project confidence, Improve Your Social Skills stresses the importance of respect and relationship. I don't have to pretend to be someone else or put on airs or play a part. Instead, this guide encourages me to be my best self and make fruitful and lasting friendships with others to help them be their best selves, too

This is a fantastic book for getting started on social skills. I work as a mental health counselor in Portland, OR and I often work with individuals with disabilities. And whether there's the presence of a disability or not, this book has served as a great resource for clients looking to work on their social skills

[Elizabeth Lucia · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Although the target audience seems to be young adults, I found that it was very appropriate for my daughter. I was a little nervous about the chapter on relationships, but was relieved that the author's values align fairly well with my own and I felt comfortable with my daughter reading it.

A lot of the books out there about improving your social skills are either too clinical, aimed at younger kids, or are meant for professionals looking to network better. I read this through before giving it to my daughter. I like the author's overall approach and the constant emphasis on sincerity and kindness in relationships. He presents social skills in terms of fairly easy to remember principles, rather than a lot of theory, abstract ideas, or case studies (there are some personal examples though).
