| Hiya! It's Nik. This time, I'm already in Japan, yet still traveling—on a Shinkansen, a bullet train, this time! Whatever your vacation plans this year, I hope learning is always part of the schedule. For this weekend, I've managed to pack 3 awesome summaries into this email, as usual! Crucial Conversations by Kerry Patterson Every day, we have conversations with many people. People we love, people we work with, and people we only interact with briefly before continuing with our day. In this communication classic, compiled by Kerry Patterson and 4 other authors, including the world-famous Stephen R. Covey, you'll learn how to keep your cool while talking to others. So-called "crucial conversations" are discusions "between two or more people where the stakes are high, opinions vary, and emotions run strong," according to the authors. The book will help you avoid conflict in such situations and come to win-win conclusions with everyone. It'll also help you be an effective communicator in general, both in your personal and professional lives. Here's what you'll learn in today's video:
If you'd like to get better at not talking yourself into a corner and cruising smoothly in and out of any social interaction, watch this video. Not your cup of read? Here are 2 other titles you might enjoy:
That's it for this week! It doesn't take much to learn something new, you know? Read a summary. Open a book. Take a personality test and find your true colors. Whatever you choose to do, I hope you'll have a wonderful time. Happy reading,
