Book Reviews of The Art of Influence: Persuading Others Begins With You
Book Review: Influence is who you are , not what you do!
Summary: 4 Stars
With a nod to The Ultimate Gift,The Ultimate Gift (The Ultimate Series #1) Chris writes a book that is very readable and inspirational. He helps us sort out that education, though important, is not ultimate in developing a life of influence.
I quote one of Chris' mentors and mine, Jim Rohn. 7 Strategies for Wealth & Happiness: Power Ideas from America's Foremost Business Philosopher"Your education will get you a job, your self education will make you a fortune".
I hope Chris writes a sequel that will develop more fully the 7 area of excellence mentioned in the book. Each could stand as a book to themselves.
This book will join The Richest Man in BabylonThe Richest Man in Babylon as a standard gift from me to high school, trade school or college graduates.
Congrats to Chris and keep up the good writing!
Summary of The Art of Influence: Persuading Others Begins With You
From Chris Widener, the author of the breakout bestseller The Angel Inside, comes an inspiring new parable on the power of influence.
The Art of Influence will make you think twice about everything you've ever learned about influence. As Chris Widener’s inspiring story reveals, it’s not something you "do" to other people but rather something that starts with how you shape and transform your own life. Forget about manipulation and slick fast-talking; The Art of Influence teaches that your ability to influence others begins from within.
