Every day, you have an opportunity to use your voice to have a positive impact - at work or in your community. You can inspire and persuade your audience - or you can distract and put them to sleep. Nervous, rambling robotic - these presentation styles can ruin a talk on even the most critical topics. And with each weak performance, career prospects dim. To get ahead and make an impact, you need to deliver well-crafted messages with confidence and authenticity. You must sound as capable as you are.

Story
The relentless pursuit of high self-esteem has become a virtual religion - and a tyrannical one at that. Our ultracompetitive culture tells us we need to be constantly above average to feel good about ourselves, but there is always someone more attractive, successful, or intelligent than we are. And even when we do manage to grab hold of high self-esteem for a brief moment, we can't seem to keep it. Our sense of self-worth goes up and down like a ping-pong ball, rising and falling in lockstep with our latest success or failure.

In 2015, Arlan Hamilton was on food stamps and sleeping on the floor of the San Francisco airport, with nothing but an old laptop and a dream of breaking into the venture capital business. She couldn’t understand why people starting companies all looked the same (white and male), and she wanted the chance to invest in the ideas and people who didn’t conform to this image of how a founder is supposed to look. Hamilton had no contacts or network in Silicon Valley, no background in finance - not even a college degree. What she did have was fierce determination and the will to succeed.

In How to Get Sh*t Done she shows how even the most perfectionistic among us can tap in to our inner free spirit and learn to feel like badasses rather than drudges.

Game theory means rigorous strategic thinking. It’s the art of anticipating your opponent’s next moves, knowing full well that your rival is trying to do the same thing to you. Though parts of game theory involve simple common sense, much is counterintuitive, and it can only be mastered by developing a new way of seeing the world. Using a diverse array of rich case studies - from pop culture, TV, movies, sports, politics, and history - the authors show how nearly every business and personal interaction has a game-theory component to it.

While racism is important subject the title on the book creates an expectation that it will be more about fashion.

Politically Charged
Although I'd love to hear the book, it is FULL of politically charged comments. When you are trying to learn something there is no place for politics, especially when it's about something as everyday as fashion. Her examples include AOC, President Trump, Melania Trump, and... I honestly had to stop there because it is not worth listening to anymore. It's garbage. Her comments are so biased you can't glean any helpful information from this unless you are of her political persuasion. If you believe the mainstream media, enjoy constant political inferences, and want to spend your free time filling your head with more of the same division we are faced with daily in this country, then this is going to be for you! Enjoy.

The narrator sounds like Siri
This book is really great information that truly changed how I dress! It’s very informative and I highly recommend it. The narrator however is barely listenable. My husband heard me listening to it one day and said “it’s sounds like a robot that someone programmed to try to be human”. If I were the author I would pay to have this re-recorded and I’ve made an audio book before and know what a big job that is. It’s seriously so distracting to the great content.

I don't like it
I think watching her Ted talk might be enough. I didn't even watch it but later I saw she had one. I just feel that the essence of this hours long book can easily be summarized in 20 minutes, so Ted talk should suffice.
You might enjoy it much more if you're a black woman or enjoy reading about race so very much that you're not upset when you buy a book about fashion and it turns out to be a book about racial issues in America.
Narration is good. Book is worthless for me. It's so fun to hear that she invented fashion psychology. Really? I love how you can invent science by slapping a label on some common sense.
