Too short and too basic for my needs!

Very clear, short and to the point. But I would of want more ideas about how to stop the stress of the toxic person get to me. I wish the author would of elaborate more on this book.

I can sure sure the advice here.

Yes, we all got some people around us who do not wish us well. Who want to pull us down and all. And I’m not sure how to deal with them. I can sure use some of the useful bits of advice and some techniques.

decent strategies

I finally had been able to understand the real meaning of a difficult person’s negative behavior. Come to think of it, the strategies I extracted from this pretty short book are decent and smart ones. Offering them the compassion and killing them with kindness is working well for me.

goody

I read a lot of self-help books and find most of them silly, formulaic, and/or unrealistic. This is perhaps the best self-help book I have read and was one of the first of the modern eras.

Excellent ideas here.

This book told me that I shouldn’t get those difficult people get to me. I think he has excellent ideas here and it brought me great relief to find an author who perfectly understands his readers’ needs.

Realistic!

The aim of this book is to extend help to uncooperative people without them affecting us. It’s a very short book but its purpose is big! It’s one realistic audiobook!

Brilliant content

Book gets right to the point, defines each type and techniques to use for it. Having stories to each type and the technique to use would greatly help cement the knowledge.
