SMALL TALK: 2 BOOKS IN 1

HOW TO TALK TO ANYONE
OVERCOME DIFFICULT THOUGHTS, SHYNESS, SOCIAL ANXIETY AND LOW SELF-ESTEEM - COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY, COMFORTABLY AND CHARISMATICALLY IN ANY SOCIAL SITUATION
For most people, talking is as important as breathing. Verbalizing our thoughts and feelings with other human beings is so central for our survival, that even in our attempts not to communicate, we still "say" something.
Although we all communicate, the ability to do it proficiently and with purpose is something we develop with knowledge, practice and experience. Good communication is about the way we give our thoughts a voice and listen what others has to say.
We are social creatures and hugely dependent on our ability to talk to make our way through the world. But for some people, social interaction and talking to people becomes an anxiety filled experience. Many people don't feel comfortable speaking at all in any sort of public situation. But speaking anywhere with confidence can improve every aspect of your life- it can get you the best jobs, more respect and authority in workplace, finest spouses and greatest friends. It can make you a leader among your peers. Your ability to speak effectively with people can work as the stepping-stones to success in your personal and professional life.
This book is here to explain the audiences how to overcome the fear of conversation and talk to anyone with confidence.

EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION
HOW TO EFFECTIVELY LISTEN TO OTHERS AND EXPRESS YOURSELF - DELIVER GREAT PRESENTATIONS, BE PERSUASIVE, WIN DEBATES, HANDLE DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS & RESOLVE CONFLICTS
Communication is the most important aspect of our daily lives, yet most of us are not very good at it, and it takes a back seat in academic study. We learn history, science, and math, and we learn to memorize the spelling of words and their meanings as well as how to put them together in sentences through proper punctuation. However, we receive little instruction on how to use those words and sentences to express adequately our ideas, create consensus, resolve conflicts, and improve our alliances.
In the end, we are left pondering why our interpersonal relationships fail, our great ideas never get off the ground, and our careers stall. Additionally, isn't it ironic that we live in the "information age", yet as a society, we are poor at communicating messages?
Believe it or not, everyone has this ability inside of him or her, and that includes you. If you want to communicate effectively, your desire will lead to practiced habits and behaviors that will carry you there. This requires that you listen to everyone around you, understand your audience and deliver believable messages that are accurate, have impact, and are built on a foundation of integrity.
Let's get better.
