transformational, and lightning, and deeply healing! every relationship in your life, including the one you have with yourself, needs this book. The author has a very listenable voice, has honed his craft of validation through years of experience and experimentation, and this volume is well worth your time and learning from. I was sad when my audiobook came to an end. give yourself the gift of better communication in your business, with your family, with yourself, and with the world as a whole. You will be forever changed! I am a mental health counselor, and I'm recommending this book and Michael's e-course to all of my clients. highly recommend!

How to really listen to people

Don't you hate it when you're telling someone how upset/frustrated/worried you are and that person responds:
* Don't worry. Things will work out.
* You'll be fine.
* It could be worst.
* It's not that big of a deal.

This is an excellent book on how to listen to people, validate their feelings, and give reassurances, like:
* What happened? What are you going to do? Yeah, that makes sense....
* Really? Tell me about it.
* Why do you feel that way?
* Why do you say that?

Short + Straightforward = Awesome

this worked well for me as it is short and straightforward. I am quite impatient and getting to the bottom of things since these things matter a lot for me and I love acting right away. because this awesome book, it gave me clarity and understanding what I can do to be a better partner and person to the people not only for people who mattered to me but also to people who needed validation and acknowledgement. communication is key, and ti's true that we are indeed socially inclined individuals, hungry for human-social communication. thanks for this awesome book! and i truly highly recommend it for people like me in search for straightforward and clear answers. :)

Best book on validation!

This book details a simple yet profound skill. Michael has crafted a masterpiece of self help guidance. I love his concise accurate step by step process of learning and applying, one of the most profound principles in human relations. That we all long to be heard and seen. This book may look on the outside like a basic box of 8 crayons, but when you unwrap it, you’ll find you can paint a whole new world! Well done Michael!!

Vaery basic important info we shoukd all have

Validatiin has got to be the most important skill we all need to masters. Lack of validation is exactly what led us to believe we are not enough. If we cut the cycle, and start validating, maybe our children and future generations will grow up feeling validated and enough... and that alone will fix most of humanities problems as a domino effect.

Profoundly simply in all the best ways

I was so happy to feel like I was able to take away everything the author had to offer instead of feeling like there was so much clutter I could only hold in to a few bits a pieces. The content was direct, easy to digest, and refreshing. I love that the concepts were simple but meaningful and tangible. The author wrote in such an approachable manner that anyone from any walk of life would be able to take something new away. Some of the material felt familiar but was still engaging. I appreciated that the author uses multiple examples for each step given. I highly recommend this book.
