Story
As an adult, it's harder to make friends, let alone keep them, or perhaps all your former friends drifted apart. Many of us are obsessed with work or occupied with family. Simply put, we don't have the time for friends, yet have the need for friends. We can't stay away for long without needing human contacts, whether that is a friend or family member. Eventually that feeling of loneliness will creep in causing depression, lack of purpose, and even mental sickness affecting our physical well-being.

This audiobook, has practical and easy to follow tips on making friends. The author seems to be someone who knows how to make friends, influence people, and how to become part of an online community.
I’ve have learned some useful information on how to construct conversations, especially since I have difficulty starting conversations with people I do not know. It gives you a basic framework that is useful enough to boost conversational skills, as well as some specific techniques to do so. The author stated to change your mindset when walking in a room, seeing people as potential friends and not strangers, which was something I believe to be very important and never thought of when making friends.
Nice book and it is helpful to those who find making friends difficult. This book also teaches how to gain more friends and know how to keep them. There are easy ways and tips to develop your social skills and I find it really helpful especially in business.
This book is worth recommending to anyone, nicely done.

This was an interesting audio series. The author is correct by saying that people tend to gravitate towards those who have a sense of humor. This audio tape is not about how to become a stand-up comedian, although some of it may apply. It is more about adding humor to the most upsetting situations or breaking the ice in conversations. The number one rule in being funny is to always make fun of yourself. Being funny, makes someone more approachable and likeable. Everyone wants to be charming and funny but instead end up being ridiculous and silly. The author has helped me understand what a good sense of humor means and how to avoid common mistakes.
He talked about being yourself and finding your own brand of humor, knowing your audience and what will make them laugh. He encourages us to listen, watch, and be in situations where we can be funny and help us get inspired to be funnier and practice. Most important parts of humor per the author is length of routine and timing. He gives us some type of activities to participate in to become funnier. If an attempt was made to add humor to a situation does not work, then turn it around and make fun of yourself. I will try some of these tips when meeting my friends next time.

Story
By being witty you can always come up with the right things to say at the right times; by expressing yourself clearly, concisely, and convincingly in an instant - with a few short words - you establish authority, credibility, and trust. That's the power of having a razor-sharp wit! If the pen is mightier than the sword, then the wit is sharper than the knife. However, let's be honest, being witty doesn't always come naturally, especially for those who are less creative and more logical. The good news is that your wit is like a muscle and, like any muscle, it can be trained and built up.

Any additional comments?
I was never able to quickly think up some witty sentences right on the spot, but would think of witty sentences after the fact. I have always wanted to be quick when it comes to being witty and this audio tape as exceeded my expectations. When it comes to being witty, it doesn’t mean only being funny. It’s about on how to start interesting conversations to say on the spot, instantly, and not 15 minutes later when the moment has passed. Being witty, people would be able to listen to you more, allowing you to break the ice in conversations and people love being around fun and witty individuals. People who are witty easily get their message across even though others may not agree with them. In some instances, a witty person might be able to change their mind so this is beneficial to politicians and great leaders. This audio tape is one of the few that I have found to fully covers this in a detailed manner. I was able to pick up a lot of helpful tips for becoming more interesting, which the presenter stresses how much it is important to be interesting then being able to make ironic and quick biting remarks. Most of the audiotape contains exercises and examples, making it a useful tool for easy learning of the fundamentals of how to be witty in your conversations. Topics include why certain people are identified as witty, what being witty means, and how to incorporate wit into your daily life in order to take your relationships and conversations to a whole new level. This auto tape was easy to follow and I recommend it for people wanting to improve their witty skills.
