On this episode of BMC Radio, the podcast where I help you supercharge your charisma and people skills I have my friend Paul Sanders (@PaulSandersSCP) from Get The Friends You Want. Paul Sanders is a friendship & social skills coach, and author of the "Get The Friends You Want" book. He helps people overcome social hesitation, master conversation and social skills, make friends and build a social circle.

In this conversation, we talk about how to build a friendship circle, how to easily connect and build rapport with many different types of people, books on social dynamics, and much more.

Any time you're learning a new skill, it can be tempting to dive in head first and consume ALL the information. Often this leads to analysis paralysis. This is the opposite of action.

Lately, I’ve been thinking about the concept of taking action without overthinking. (Something I struggled with for years)

In this (solo) episode of BMC Radio I'll give you frameworks for:

  • How do you get just ENOUGH information to act without hoarding information and overthinking?
  • How can you quickly act on the information you consume?
  • How does Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos view the push/pull of information vs. action?
  • And more...

If you're an ambitious overthinker, you'll hate this episode at first. But give it a few minutes, it will change the way you view taking action forever. ---

I used to think time travel would be awesome...until I read an 1883 etiquette book. Life in the 1880s:
  • 17 drinks before breakfast.
  • Waiting for the automobile to be invented.
  • Some light assault of service people.
  • More drinking.
Grab your powdered wig, dust off your top hat, get in your horse and buggy and let’s learn some Victorian-era etiquette!
