As an athlete, I’ve always focused on physical training and discipline but over time, I’ve learned that mental strength and awareness are just as important. This book caught my attention because I wanted to better understand how people influence each other, both on and off the field. I’m glad I gave it a listen. There were a few moments where the points felt a little repetitive, but overall, that just helped the core lessons sink in. If you're someone who wants to sharpen your mental game, become more self aware, and communicate more confidently, I’d recommend this. Whether you're in sports or not, there’s a lot here that applies to everyday life.

Solid listen for building mental strength

It helped me realize how subtle manipulation can be in everyday life—and more importantly, how to spot it and handle it. I liked how the book used real-life examples and kept it all grounded. It didn’t feel preachy or too technical. Just honest, practical advice that made me feel more confident in how I communicate with others. Definitely recommend it!

As someone who works in an industry where appearances and first impressions mean everything, I’ve learned how easily people can try to influence or even manipulate you sometimes in ways that aren’t immediately obvious. It was eye-opening for me because it helped put words to things I’ve felt but didn’t always know how to explain. It takes a deep dive into the psychology of influence without making it feel too clinical. I appreciated how the book starts with a relatable story it really pulled me in and made the rest of the content feel more grounded. This is a great listen if you’re in a space where your image or presence matters and you want to keep your boundaries strong while still being able to connect with people authentically. I’m glad I gave it a chance it gave me a new sense of confidence and awareness that I didn’t know I needed.

I love how the author is also the narrator. Who better to present the content of the book than the person who wrote it. He does an exceptional job of giving the listener an entertaining, yet informative, outview of influence, mainipulation and human psychology. Definately worth your time to listen.

This audiobook is an insightful and easy-to-digest guide for anyone looking to understand influence and protect themselves from manipulation. The storytelling approach makes it relatable, and the advice is practical enough to apply in everyday life. I especially appreciate the focus on ethical influence rather than just gaining the upper hand. That said, if you've already read a lot on persuasion and psychology, you might not find much new here. Still, it's a great starting point for anyone wanting to sharpen their social awareness.

Eye-Opening and Practical
