Instant Influence and Charisma: master the art of natural charm and ethical persuasiveness with multi-million-copy bestselling author Paul McKenna’s sure-fire system Paperback – 31 Dec. 2015

One of his best books in my book to date :D what ever happens we are all influential in one way or another this book helps to be more influential in the ways yo choose.It is an easy read as always and the exercises are very strait forward, simplistic and rapid in their outcome which you can download online in just a few clicks. I love this element as you can go through the exercises with Paul as if you were in a private session.I love how simple it is in its wisdom and delivery making it very easy to understand and utilize. This system gives a great insight into Influence. (1) In how we can spot others trying to Influence us and (2) In how we can In even in everyday context's, learn how to become more influential like family, friends and relationships.You can help people more, they may need advice, to calm down in a stressful situation and see things differently. I have become more helpful as a person and learned to connect to people and communicate more efficiently which is great for me as I like getting to know new people go on dates ext.It can help with things like job interviews, If you are in sales you will learn how to increase your sales and become better in work place. Maybe you need that promotion or that bank loan and much much more i'm just outlining some aspects.Charisma; well i'm feeling much better in myself which helps with everything else in the book. I'm more confident which allows me to use the magic tools inside, to communicate with more ease and to think and feel better about me and my life.It is amazing and for the price I mean you would be silly not to buy it ;D the book can last forever and for the wisdom contained within the pages it really is priceless. Believe me you will be repaid many times over or you can go waste the fiver on something else. :(

I've read a few of Paul's books and I like them all. Out of the audios in all the books, this is the one that has the most effect. For best results, I have a role model that I want to emulate in mind before listening to the audio. I usually watch them on Youtube before, if you are struggling for ideas there is an excellent Youtube channel that you can learn so much from called Charisma On Command.There are also video exercises that are good however my favourite video exercise is the role model one from his other book "The 3 Things That Will Change Your Destiny Today!". Personally I think he should have added the exercise from that book into this one as well.But anyway I recommend both, after listening to the audio I find myself cracking jokes with strangers and being really charismatic, I also find I can sense and feel when people are trying to influence me, whether is an advertisement, sales pitch or just someone who is trying to persuade or manipulate me in some way, the system in this book can open your eyes so you can protect yourself from these influencers you may not always be aware of when going about your everyday life.

Arrived on time and in perfect condition

I love Paul McKenna books. I found the videos and audio really helpful and effective and have already noticed some improvements in my confidence. You do need to persist and stick at this as you should really do the audio at least once a day which is around 30mins and there are other exercises you need to do as often as possible. It can be time consuming but the results will be worth it.Only thing I have to say is towards the middle of the book it does seem to get a bit rambly which I struggle to force myself to read. Other than that I would definately recommend.

I have only read the first chapter and practiced the 'Havering' technique a few times prior to a gruelling high profile university interview that was seriously causing me stress and bought the kindle edition as a hopeful quick-fix. I was sceptical as let's face it; giving yourself a cuddle whilst counting to 20 stroking your upper arms looks bizarre! It's supposed to relieve the fear and anxiety of a situation if done enough times and I listened to the trance video download accompanying the book for the five days before my interview.I literally walked the presentation and five person panel questioning without an ounce of nerves and amazed myself that for the first time, I did not get any anxiety, in fact I was excited and ready to go!So I'll continue to read and practice and finish the book and it will hopefully embed the theories and promised outcomes. Highly recommend. Only one little criticism...I can't do the 'Superman' pose for two minutes without laughing at myself :)

I've never been disappointed form one of McKenna's books. With his previous work I quit smoking, I improved my self confidence, I am generating ideas to improve my financial status and life in general (though with no success yet I have to admit).This book is also fascinating. It is heavily inspired from Cialdini's work ("Influence:....") but it has so much more information and ofcourse the coplimentary videos / hypnotic track that add to the subconscious level.I am really happy I got it and looking forward to any new work he is publishing in the future!

I like Paul McKenna and use his CDs on and off when I need them. I saw this and thought, why not try it out who doesn't need bags of charisma and influence in life.So I got the kindle version as I already have a lot of books and to save time I would download it to my phone. The book part is great but the audio part is fiddly. You have to get the download reference number to get it. Once I got it I thought it would either go to my music folder and I would just pop it in a playlist for bedtime listening or embed itself in the book, but no, I have no idea where the zip file is on my phone.In a previous book, the audio parts where actually at the beginning of the book so all you had to do was go back to a set page and bobs your uncle.All in all its okay. I haven't influenced anyone but it takes time and persistence. Its a 3 out of 5 for me for not being straight forward.
