THE WORD OF MOUTH
Original Hacker News comments, in the readers’ own words.
Sounds like the right way to go! For further reading, look at: Models - Mark Manson No More Mr. Nice Guy - Robert Glover What also helped change mindsets to positive-by-default interactions with potential partners, I recommend The Alabaster Girl by Zan Perrion. Very flowery book, but an enjoyable read and at worst a decent mode of mind to consider.

The most important book I have read currently is “The Anatomy of Peace” by the arbinger institute. This book teaches me how to stay out of interpersonal conflicts and become a person pthers want to be together with. “Crucial Conversations” is another really important book that teaches how to safely deal with very hard conversations. For my own personal development/relationship with women I must say that “No more mister nice guy” and “the way of the superior man” has both helped me. Lastly the letting go e-book by Leo Babauta from zenhabits also is really good.

As a christian, I found parts of No More Mr. Nice Guy a bit less worthy, but I can highly recommend the book as a whole if you find yourself unbalanced. The author isn't recommending anybody to be a jerk, but his admonitions to being more forthright, up-front, and a bit less scheming will help people find balance. And in consequence actually treating people with respect rather than project a somewhat false "nice-guy" facade.
Practical skills are easily acquired. Personal skills and greater self-awareness are what really fast-track you. 1) Scott Adams 'How to fail at almost everything' for life strategy. 2) Robert Glover's 'No more Mr Nice Guy' for assertiveness and being your authentic self no matter what. 3) As cliche as it is, 'The Power of Now' is a great source to return to in times of personal and professional woes. Good luck and Godspeed in your career(s).

I've read No More Mr Nice Guy and helped me big time with my emotional development as well.
"48 Laws of Power" and "No More Mr Nice Guy". Laws of Power: Not for everyone but the book is damn useful if you're ambitious and can translate examples and vague concepts into your own situations in life. No More Mr Nice Guy: Not very far into it but it's almost cathartic if it applies to you and I feel like its a huge step in social/emotional development for me.
