The deepest craving of human nature is the need to feel valued and valuable. The secret of charm is therefore simple: Make others feel important. The more important you make people feel in your presence, the more charming they will perceive you to be. Fortunately, we know how to make people feel wonderful about themselves. These key behaviors can be summarized in the five A's: acceptance, appreciation, approval, admiration, and attention.

For a long time, I found myself possessing the majority of those traits. I thought, "This is just who I am. I can't change that." Wrong. So Wrong. Most of these traits were handed to me, and probably you too, without request. With the way our society is organized (media, school, parents, etc.), these character traits proliferate.

Mouthpiece is a brutally told biographical sketch of an incarcerated pimp in prison for human trafficking. Raw boasts and brazen inner-city tales litter the story’s violent, unrepentant landscape. Like a marked man, Mouthpiece keeps after the listener with a cold perspective. Money is the aim, and young women are the product.

In his early 20s, Curtis Jackson, known as 50 Cent, rose to the heights of fame and power in the cutthroat music business. A decade ago, the multi-platinum selling rap artist decided to pivot. His ability to adapt to change was demonstrated when he became the executive producer and star of Power, a high-octane, gripping crime drama centered around a drug kingpin's family. The series quickly became "appointment" television, leading to Jackson inking a four-year, $150 million contract with the Starz network - the most lucrative deal in premium cable history.

A blueprint. A bible. What Sun Tzu’s Art of War was to ancient China, Pimp is to the streets. As real as you can get without jumping in, this is the story of Iceberg Slim’s life as he saw, felt, tasted, and smelled it. It is a trip through hell by the one man who lived to tell the tale—the dangers of jail, addiction, and death that are still all too familiar for today’s Black community. By telling the story of one man’s struggles and triumphs in an underground world, Pimp shows us the game doesn’t change; it just has a different swagger.

A large part of Goines' 39 years of life was spent being a successful pimp, a heif, an operator of corn liquor houses, an armed robber, and a small-time dope dealer. He lived the life of the streets, and out of that experience he created Prince, the anti-hero of Black Gangster. It's the story of the shocking underworld of Black organized crime and the fledgling Black "godfather" who goes from teenager ganglord to powerful Detroit mobster. Like the gangsters of the 1920s, he begins with bootlegging and branches out into every known crime.

Bad and egotistic retelling of first book!
This is more or less the retelling of pimpology.
90% the material what's recycled, one dimensional and the egotism throughout the book distracts from the narrative.
The main flaw was that they did not allow mr. Gates to read at his natural style. The entire piece sounded slow and mechanical.

not good
Okay im going to be honest this book can't offer you much. I'm being serious in saying I came into it with an open mind and this dude gives a lot of stories and little content. Most of it is bragging on himself or others. I would instead read the books he recommended. just save your money or credit and get the 48 laws of power.

Seems to me he read all the books mentioned such as the 48 laws and the art of war , then added some stories from personal experience. ok. But I checked some of the people mentioned and he's making them bigger than they are. I did still enjoy as it did have some good advice...but overall it was just ok.
