The foundation to success for any human being in life, in a
holistic way, is his personality. Personality is not a
unidimensional phenomenon but is multidimensional in character. The
author has gained deep insights into the various principles which
drive human success, through deep research spanning over hundreds
of articles, numerous websites and books, and more importantly
through meeting with many leaders and keen observation of many
successful personalities. He has penned them methodically, which
will be easily accessible and digestible to all those who are
desirous of achieving success. In fact, author's own journey from a
small village to a feted General has been the living embodiment of
these principles, as are the lives of those eminent and greater
personalities that you will meet in these pages, as also in the
daily walk of life. One will come to realise that personality is
like a diamond, which shines only when polished. This book is a
must-read for the people in multiple walks of life to lead a
meaningful, peaceful and successful life.
Communication is crucial to success in life and business. However, it
is not just big speeches that matter: it is also those critical,
spur-of-the-moment situations for which we cannot prepare.
A prospective client asking unexpected questions during a sales pitch,
a teacher singling you out for an answer during a class, a
high-pressure meeting with senior executives at work, or even a
heartwarming toast to deliver on the spot. All are fraught scenarios
that might cause you to freeze up. The pandemic has only boosted this
fear, by stripping the spontaneity from communication during lockdown,
and then changing the communication landscape.
In this invaluable guide, Matt Abrahams – Stanford University lecturer
and creator of the hit podcast, Think Fast, Talk Smart – provides a
six-point methodology that will enable you to manage these stressful,
impromptu circumstances to create and deliver crisp, compelling and
calm communication. Think Faster, Talk Smarter is an energetic,
engaging resource for anyone who wants to speak out, spread their
ideas, and ultimately share their story.
Live by your own rules - Robert Greene, the 'modern Machiavelli'
debunks the prevailing mythology of success and presents a radical
new way to greatness. Around the globe, people are facing the same
problem - that we are born as individuals but are forced to conform
to the rules of society if we want to succeed. To see our
uniqueness expressed in our achievements, we must first learn the
rules - and then how to change them completely. Charles Darwin
began as an underachieving schoolboy, Leonardo da Vinci as an
illegitimate outcast. The secret of their eventual greatness lies
in a 'rigorous apprenticeship': by paying close and careful
attention, they learnt to master the 'hidden codes' which determine
ultimate success or failure. Then, they rewrote the rules as a
reflection of their own individuality, blasting previous patterns
of achievement open from within. Told through Robert Greene's
signature blend of historical anecdote and psychological insight
and drawing on interviews with world leaders, Mastery builds on the
strategies outlined in The 48 Laws of Power to provide a practical
guide to greatness - and how to start living by your own rules.
