Summary: You Don't Learn It From A Book (Or Tape)
Review: A painfully shy friend let me listen to part of this, and it's not worth the tape it's recorded on. I was "painfully shy" until my 22nd year (oh, boo hoo hoo!), when I moved into a place of my own and, after awhile, realized that other people simply were not thinking about me as much as I thought they were. After I quit caring what others thought, I completely lost all shyness. Life is short, get out and have fun!If you always worry about what others think of you, you would be astounded to realize how infrequently they DO think of you! Shyness is the result of your own inflated self-importance. You are NOT the center of the world, princess. Get over it.

Summary: Seems out of touch with the painfully shy
Review: The book has a few tips for what to say in various situations. Maybe they would be useful (or at least good for a laugh) for a person who doesn't have shyness problems. But the book doesn't address anything at all about overcoming the problem of shyness. Shy people experience pain and sometimes even panic in social situations. Simply telling them to "have a positive attitude" doesn't solve the problem - we need to know how! So I'm still looking for a good book on the subject.

Summary: Very bad
Review: This audiobook was definitely a waste of time to listen to. Everything is commonsense, and not inspiring at all. Personally, I like books and tapes that pump you up, but in an intelligent way. This has none of that, and the ideas contained in this tape aren't worth spending your time on (ie. everybody already knows them, and it doesn't take a person with a university degree or PHD to explain them to you).
