Cómo ser un imán para las personas
¿Te sientes incómodo cuándo estás con más personas? ¿Realmente no sabes qué decir o cómo iniciar una conversación en un evento de Networking? ¿Te gustaría mejorar las relaciones con tu jefe o tus empleados? ¿Deseas mejorar las relaciones personales con tu pareja o tus amigos?
¿O simplemente te gustaría mejorar las relaciones personales en general y tu capacidad para causar una primera impresión impactante y establecer relaciones duraderas con todas las personas con las que estás en contacto?
En su nuevo libro "Cómo ser un imán para las personas" el escritor bestseller internacional y consultor de desarrollo personal Marc Reklau te revela los secretos y la psicología para tener relaciones exitosas con otras personas.
Tu éxito y felicidad en la vida, en el hogar y en los negocios, dependen en gran medida de cómo te llevas con otras personas. ¿Eres capaz de influir y persuadirlas? Aunque el éxito puede significar algo diferente para cada persona, hay un cosa en común que influye mucho: otras personas.
Las personas más exitosas, con bastante frecuencia, no son las que tienen una inteligencia superior o mejores habilidades, y las personas más felices no suelen ser más inteligentes que nosotros, sino las que tienen las mejores habilidades humanas.
En esta guía práctica y simple, aprenderás principios específicos que te ayudarán a establecer relaciones más poderosas, conexiones más sólidas y dejar una impresión positiva y duradera en todas las personas con las que te pones en contacto. La mayoría de estos principios son de sentido común, pero siempre es bueno tener un recordatorio, porque como se suele decir "el sentido común es el menos común de todos los sentidos". Cómo ser un imán para las personas te dará las herramientas que necesitas para lograr los resultados que necesitas.
Aprenderás...
...y mucho más...
Las buenas habilidades con las personas muchas veces hacen la diferencia entre perder el trabajo o conseguir un ascenso: entre ganar la venta o perderla; entre un cliente feliz o un cliente que no quiere trabajar m&aac

This is 62 ways of saying “Be Nice”
Most of them are common sense and are almost condescending. A handful might pop out at you - the ones you know you need to work on or insecurities.
Personally I found his discussion on “thank you notes” to be the most interesting, and it’s just a throwaway paragraph at the end of the book.
It’s a nice coffee table book or something to cheer you up if you’re having a bad day.

Nada especial si ya se ha leído antes el famoso libro de Dale Carnegie : Cómo ganar amigos e influir sobre las personas

I thought I would read through this book for laughs, and boy, did I have a good laugh. The 62 tips are either obvious, repeated, stretched, or stupid.

i’m not the right demographic for this !!! it lost me when the fourth tip is you need to agree with people for people to like you …

I picked up two of these books about dealing with people. After only 3 minutes, the first one I attempted to listen to was an instantaneous DNF. The narrator was so annoying in that audio...so I put this one in instead. Much better audio in my opinion.
But as far as content, I think it fell more into the "commen sense" realm rather than the "life changing" realm. Now with that being said, there are certainly people who could use a little common sense in their life.
A good reminder is always nice. So 3 stars.

"Wayne Dyer once said to accept that 50 per cent of the people you meet in your life won’t like you, no matter what you do, no matter how nice you are, no matter how good you are."

Great tips to emerge a positive people magnet.
Last but not least the third ingredient, Appreciation. Next to love, appreciation is probably the most critical force in the universe. Why do our marriages and jobs go sour? When we don’t appreciate them anymore. When we don’t appreciate what we have. And how do we make happiness and success grow? Appreciating what we have. Appreciate your spouse, your children, your employees, your boss, your clients and the most important thing—let them know that you appreciate

November 6, 2024Generally insightful for those priming their reading taste for psychology, but definitely not for comprehensive reading as it lacks mindfulness and practicality.

Viene a ser el clásico de Dale Carnegie actualizado a este siglo. Se salva porque, pese a lógicos, incluye ciertos consejos que no viene mal tener en cuenta y está escrito de forma llana y directa, consiguiendo una lectura fluida. Por lo demás, casi nada sorprende: el motivo del libro se puede reducir más o menos en tratar bien a la gente. Mostrar amabilidad, hacer cumplimientos, dejar de lado rencores, ser puntual a las citas... Otras recomendaciones son muy cuestionables, como la de mostrarse de acuerdo con todo lo que dice tu interlocutor, bajo pretexto de que no vale la pena discutir. La versión para Kindle en español presenta varios errores ortográficos.

Very short book. Lots of very basic tips that I’d heard before! Some of it was a bit too suck up, like everything needs to be dictated by what the other person wants not what you want, let them think they came up with your ideas etc.
Best advice from this was more mindset focussed, such as noticing other people’s strengths, only by liking yourself better will you like others better, you must surround yourself with people that motivate you - not those that drain you as that will eventually make you cynical like them. And focus on being an optimist (and smile) as you’ll lift peoples spirits around you.

For a book that promises to teach you to attract people, it seems very insecure in its own ability to attract readers, with the writer constantly and rather obnoxiously seemingly asking for your approval.
It also claims it's not a book about people pleasing, and yet so much of it teaches you to do exactly that– by the time you reach its fourth chapter (which won't take long, considering each chapter is generally just two pages of frankly obvious advice) it outright tells you to agree with people as much as possible and “[o]nly disagree with people if you have absolutely no other choice”. Yet this fact is swiftly contradicted, where in Chapter 16 the book says: “The worst thing you can do is say things or agree with people just to please them.”
This is not the first, nor shall be the last, contradiction in this book– it is almost 150 pages of tips that are surface-level, contradictory and, worst of all, repetitive. I don't know if there needs to be a book with 62 variations of one solution: be nice to people. One could have reached the same conclusion 10x faster by just reading the contents page.
I read the book for a laugh, but it was more effective at either annoying me or lulling me to sleep. How to Become a People Magnet might be useful for those completely inexperienced in social niceties, but I didn't find this book particularly magnetic. But hey, at least my edition had a nice cover– thank you, Sourish Mitra, whoever you are.

This was insightful and motivating. I think anyone looking for a short and sweet supportive look at ways to carry on conversation and shifting the spotlight onto others will appreciate this one.
I enjoyed this as an audiobook, narrated by Greg Douras, who was excellent.
The Story
The book highlights self-improvement techniques when it comes to building interpersonal relationships, focusing on various ways to ease into conversation, maintaining discussion, developing stronger connections, improving listening skills, reciprocating, influence, genuine kindness, humility, and humor.
There were a few parts of redundancy and some rather common sense notions, but not overly distracting.
The Writing
Organized well.
Positive tone and outlook great for self-reflection as well as inspiration.

I listened to this one. A lot of it was common sense to me for how to be a good/kind person, but I took away a few nuggets.

Such a great read. A fun opportunity to learn how to be a kind and selfless person who is genuinely interested in those around you. I enjoyed each chapter and there were so many great insights.

Turned the last page of this master guide " How to become a people magnet"
Its such a life lesson. Every minute we deal with people. But we often don't understand that when we do, we are dealing with emotional minds and not with analytical bots.
We are least bothered to understand how to deal in a right way...
Good Read...
Simple things in life will make huge differences ... 👍
