Confidence: The Art Of Getting Whatever You Want
16 Jul 08

As one of life’s most important skills, confidence can help you land the job of your dreams, find your soul mate, stand up for yourself and generally achieve more from life. However, nobody is born confident and most of us have experienced moments when a boost confidence would have been very welcome.

The good news is that it is a skill we can all learn to master, which is where Dr Rob Yeung comes in. His new book reflects the best of what psychologists and neuroscientists know about confidence right now. Using this collective wisdom, combined with his years of personal experience working with hundreds of clients, this book will help people increase their confidence and make the most of what life has to offer.

In it he will show how to develop confidence in all areas of life from dating and socialising to job hunting and public speaking. It will also help us to say “no” to people and situations that aren’t good for us and to be brave enough to say “yes” to the opportunities that come our way.

His drive to help everyone become more confident comes from personal experience:

“When I was at school I was so petrified of speaking in front of even a dozen other kids I’d pretend that I had a sudden doctor’s appointment to get out of it. But I trained myself to get over it. And now I get the biggest buzz being interviewed on live television, speaking to a global audience. In fact now if you get me up on a stage and you practically can’t get me off. I honestly believe that, if I can conquer my fear and gain more confidence, anyone can. I want to help people conquer their nerves over anything from finding love to being more assertive with their boss.”

Dr Yeung is available for interview or to offer expert comment on current news or celebrity stories or for topical articles. To arrange an interview please contact Elie Ball 07803 392 710 or email elie.ball@pearson.com. Elie can also arrange for you to receive a review copy of the book.
