STFU: The Power of Keeping Your Mouth Shut in an Endlessly Noisy World [9781250850331]

Overview

Named Book of the Week by Maria Shriver's The Sunday Paper

“Entertaining, illuminating, and inspiring! More than a book, it’s a public service announcement that we’d all do well to―well, STFU and listen to!”―Sarah Knight, The New York Times bestselling author of Calm the F*ck Down

The New York Times bestselling author Dan Lyons is here to tell you - and don't take this the wrong way - that you really need to shut the f*ck up!

Our noisy world has trained us to think that those who get in the last word win, when in fact it’s those who know how to stay silent who really hold the power. STFU is a book that unlocks this power and will change your life, freeing you to focus on what matters. Lyons combines leading behavioral science with actionable advice on how to communicate with intent, think critically, and open your mind and ears to the world around you.

Talk less, get more. That’s what STFU is all about. Prescriptive, informative, and addictively readable, STFU gives you the tools to become your better self, whether that’s in the office, at home, online, or in your most treasured relationships. Because, after all, what you say is who you are.

So take a deep breath, turn the page, and quietly change your life.
