With his more than forty years' experience observing people and
politicians in our nation's capital-ten of those years on
"Hardball," five nights a week-Chris Matthews has learned from the
pros what it takes to be a success. Now Matthews shows us what we
can learn from the world's most accomplished people and, more
important, how we can emulate their best habits to improve our own
lives.
In The Hardball Handbook, Chris Matthews focuses on four
areas-friendship, rivalry, reputation, and success-and shows how we
can cull the best traits of others and use them ourselves. Matthews
takes us on a raucous road trip through political history and
points out the best-and worst-behaviors of some of its most notable
characters. Written in the assertive, good-natured style that is
Matthews's trademark, each chapter has something to teach us. Here
are a few truths from The Hardball Handbook:
- People would rather" "be listened to than listen.
- People don't mind being used; what they mind is being discarded.
- People are more loyal to the people they've helped than the
people they've helped are loyal to them.
- Not everyone's going to like you.
- No matter what anybody says, nobody wants a level playing field.
Once you understand these and other universal truths-and how to
make them work for you-you'll be ready to win at life.
