Read, Think and Act on It! The Best Written Book, Ever!!

If ever you must read one book, pick your choice between this one or the other one written by Florence Littauer, Personality Plus. While Personality Plus is more "textbook", this one is more "popular" reading with stories of people. Your life will significantly change and be 100% happier if you: read, think and act accordingly. In my line of work, I met hundreds of new people every month, thus, I need a way to suffice all these different people. Some are extremely talkative, some are totally mysterious, some are very laid back and others are just plain dictator. Actually, I already wrote four hints in my last sentence. Personalities differ from one person to another. Once you understand the key of it, there is actually nothing to it! Conflicts within families, aggression to other people, etc. can be minimize, well, it depends on the reader him/herself to apply knowledge obtained from this writer. I recommend this book to at least 20 other people already. A must-read book, for it will make your life more understandable and lead to a happier future.

Very useful in understanding people and behavior.

Interesting book. It helped me to understand my family, and not try to mold them into my way of thinking. I don't believe we can "label" people so readily though. People are complicated, and there are many reasons why we think and act the way we do, our basic temperment is only one factor. However, this book is extremely insightful, and I highly recommended it.

A practical relationship enhancing tool for all professions.

If you are a leader in any area of your life, then you must read this book. And, once you read it, keep it where you keep your other reference books. I believe it is an essential tool just like your dictionary. I have been trained in both the secular and Christian arena obtaining Bachelors' degrees in both. This should be required reading in all secular academic and seminary classes.Florence and Marita's consistent teaching and practical instructions permeate this compilation where we often have many roles from mother to board president (as in my case) and need a tool to make ourselves more effective. This is a dynamic tool and the practical application presented is second to none. I read this book after I read Personality Plus and Your Personality Tree and I suggest you read these in that order as well. A must read and then keep for future reference!
