Publisher's summary
Do you want to be able to walk into a room of strangers and instantly befriend everyone?
How do some people end up with friends anywhere they go and make amazing impressions on everyone? What really makes people connect, open up, and just...click with others?
It's something we never learn in school...a shame because connecting instantly with others just might be the most important skill you'll ever learn.
The first minute of an interaction is the gatekeeper of friendship and relationships.
It determines whether people will invest time and energy in you...and simply care about you. Nail it, and you'll be given the benefit of the doubt in any situation.... Fail to click instantly, and you'll fall into the dreaded zone of apathy and "who cares about them?" We don't get second chances in a reality that deals largely in snap judgments.
Connect Instantly was written specifically to deal with those crucial first moments of interaction and make sure that you control 100 percent that you click and make a great impression and reap the rewards of it.

Expressing what you want isn’t selfish, it’s prioritizing yourself. The need to please is powerful, but it causes anxiety, stress, and resentment. Time to change your patterns. Stand Up for Yourself is direct and no-nonsense. That’s because the way you prioritize others and let them stomp all over your boundaries isn’t working, so you need a change. This book teaches you how to reverse these mini-decisions, and internalize the belief that you are worth it, you are valuable, and you deserve it. Because you are, and you do.

Why have history's greatest minds - from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson along with today's top performers, from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities - embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

These ladies know what they want and take what they want by beating men at their own game. Utilizing the secrets exposed in this book, these women gain power, money, and status. Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

Models is the first book ever written on seduction as an emotional process rather than a logical one, a process of connecting with women rather than impressing them. It's the most mature and honest guide on how a man can attract women without faking behavior, without lying and without emulating others. A game-changer.

IDK what this book is about...
What would have made Connect Instantly: 60 Seconds to Likability, Meaningful Connections, and Hitting It Off With Anyone better?
The author doesn't go into much detail. This is a very odd book and gave me no insight on how to make powerful connections.

meh...
It's written for an audience of young men or highschool boys probably too help them talk to girls. If you want a twenty-something who talks to lots of girls but has no experience closing big deals or conducting meaningful business then this might be the title for you.
The author stresses storytelling, to which I agree with, and there is lots of information and advice but very few examples and stories of that advice in action! It makes the content feel dry and lifeless. Either the author lacks experience or doesn't take his own advice about being a good storyteller! Kind of funny really.
The narrator has a pleasing voice, which lacks all forms of enthusiasm. He should narrate for meditation tapes! This book I do not recommend listening to while driving so you don't doze off.
I've read and listened to much better titles about developing a pleasing personality. There is nothing here not already covered in any other title. Apply your money to a book like How To Win Friends and Influence People.
I give it two stars because this book is indeed useful. About as useful as digging a ditch with a spoon, though. Other then being a waste of money it doesn't get one star because there is nothing in it which I find offensive.
