"I think this book is geared more to people who need to develop self-confidence as opposed to people who just need help with letting others get to them. For someone who's already secure - I'd recommend a CBT-based book like Being Happy."
"I admit I wasn't at all that impressed with this book, as I found it frustrating to read through in certain sections. But now that I have reread it, I find it much more helpful now... only after finding ways to be more responsive versus reactive to other people (I had to hear it from someone else in order to get it; the book wasn't enough). You'd be amazed, though, how you can tick off others so much more by just letting things go and walking away from drama. It's a great feeling to not be able to take these people seriously. People like this are always fishing for a reaction from you it seems. Not getting caught up in it often wins you favorable outcome. Of course, if you're very emotional like I am, that's not always easy to do. I had to go on an antidepressant in order to see this. I couldn't do it before without it. I'm not necessarily saying if you're emotional this book won't work, but what I am saying is that for my case, I needed a little bit help in order to see and understand it.
This book does have some funny examples though I admit."
"I enjoyed this book. It was an easy reed and provided my with a few tools to prevent myself from getting overly angry, frustrated, etc. The book gets a bit repetitive, but I suppose this helps drive the point home that practice makes perfect. Great read for anybody looking to leave behind their unneeded stress."
