Greatest pep-talk ever!

This is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the best self-help books ever. The message is clear that the reader must not only listen to what the book says, but then must go out and actually implement the tactics in everyday life. And that's the problem with most self-help books. They aren't that persuassive.Well, this one is. Mr. Weber convinced me so rapidly of trying to change my normal routine and break out of 'who I was' I can't thank him enough. Like the other reviewer of this book, I wasn't scared to change, and this book was one of a few that confronted the problem. Therefore, it seems to me that Mr. Weber has taken his time to dig deep in the psychology of shy people. As one myself, let me tell you he hits the nail right on top of the head.

The only book I have found to be of any help

The biggest problem with most personal advice books is that they tell you to just ignore your problems - if you're afraid of something, just don't care, go out and do it. This kind of approach doesn't always scare me off more, but it's definitely not encouraging either.At the first glance, one could say that this is just what the authors are doing in this book. The message of the book is very clear from the beginning - go out and do it. On the other hand, however, this book is incredibly motivating. I really can't tell you how they do it, but the more I read the book, the more I started to feel the readiness to go into situations that would normally have scared the hell out of me. I noticed a significant attitude change in a few days. It's still much less than what I would need, but at least it's some kind of a beginning. Though this book doesn't contain a final solution to your shyness, it's the only book I've seen that has been of any kind of help at all. I advise every shy person to try this book first. Maybe you're also interested to know that several other books by Eric Weber I have seen (including the don't-know-why famous How to Pick Up Girls) are quite useless, failing to deliver what is promised.
