Personal Magnetism

The Art And Science Of Personal Magnetism

Rate this book
It is a strange and almost amusing fact that there should be at the same time, on the part of the general public, such a general acceptance of the existence of personal magnetism, on the one hand, and such an ignorance of the nature of this wonderful force, on the other hand. In short, while everyone believes in the existence of personal magnetism, scarcely anyone possesses knowledge of the real nature of the same, much less a working knowledge of its principles of application...

A couple of interesting points, but it had a strange atmosphere of the occult around it. People of a rational/logical bent of mind will need to take a leap of faith in order to follow this book. Some familiarity with Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" will help, as both authors use the same concepts and some of the same terminology as well.

Aku tidak mengerti, kenapa buku rumit yang sukar dipahami dan cenderung diberikan rating rendah (karena terjemahannya mempusingkan) bisa membuatku menyukainya. Topik-topik berat, kemudian disusul kalimat keseharian membuat buku ini nyaman dibaca. Cover buku di series ini sangat bagus, bahkan harga yang affordable sangat memungkinkan kita memiliki semua serinya. Buku ini bisa jadi terapi untuk orang yang punya masalah dengan sosialnya. Banyak penyadaran lainnya untukku, seperti untuk mengategorikan hal positif dan negatif, dan hanya melakukan yang positif, kemudian jika kita tidak bisa memberikan pengaruh daya tarik kuat, kita bisa menyangkal bila tak bisa mempengaruhi. Semua juga sesederhana jika kita melawan balik kalimat atau tindakan buruk yang selama ini kita lakukan.

Aku hanya menyayangkan kutipan profesor atau riset yang terlalu sukar dibaca sehingga kepala jadi makin pusing. Namun, bisa diatasi dengan melewatkannya ke kalimat berikutnya. Kemudian, fakta bahwa ada hal yang tidak bisa kita lawan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari: orang berbadan besar, punya senjata, daya Tarik dan mental ini akan mudah ciut dan tidak bisa dipraktekkan, kecuali hanya menyangkal.

Dubious claims,confirmation bias, and placebo are littered throughout, but certain aspects such as the “flash” exercise (self-affirmations repackaged) are worth hearing described in a different manner than usual.

idk, at first i was really interested in this book. but with time goes on, it's getting boring and there's just smth weird with the occult and stuff, so i just stopped reading it. also there are several words which were hard to understand for me.
