Rating:  Summary: Very useful - for standing up for yourself, in a daily life Review: I found this book, very useful. To some extent, it helped me to shape my character. I feel stronger now, while dealing with tricky issues, both at work and with friends. Try to finish the whole book and be patient. You should try to use some of the techniques in real life, to see any change. You will have a chance to understand that being humble, all the times, doesn't necessarily make you are a nice person. You should respect yourself first, before expecting some one would respect you.
Rating:  Summary: Better Solution Review: If you really want to develop a backbone, do some pushups. Don't waste your time searching for excuses.
Rating:  Summary: Good eye-opener! Review: One of the books I read in my beginning of professional life to improve myself. The inspiration was my room-mate that time (I forgot his name) who was having this book. As I was a soft guy (now also I think), I was finding it difficult to survive sometimes in a tough environment. Indeed the book was a good eye-opener and I could find myself getting improved. Certain thoughts were really astounding: You have to be assertive and aggressive depending on what the situation warrants.The practical application of what was discussed in the book was when I went to the canteen in my company to have food when I was working late hours. Although it was my mistake to go late for food, the cook said that the curry got over but I was really aggressive enough to demand for an alternative. I patted my shoulders myself for my behavior. Really a book worth reading once. Good eye-opener.
Rating:  Summary: Buy it!! it is very good Review: The issue is that there are times when we say yes when we really want to say no. The example given clearly falls in place if you have personally felt the pinch of saying yes when you wanted to say no. It takes a little time to practise it. The handbook should have been with it to make a practical book a part of a daily routine. Buy it since you will need to be reminded about it!!!
