It's I was in Sunday school again
This book will bore you out of your mind with archaic ideas of how to treat other people. Very well-meaning but ultimately fails to get to the heart of anything. a shallow listen that even a talented narrator couldn't bring the life. The last 10 minutes is a conversation with the author and I almost vomited listening to him.
Gain empathy dude.. Stop judging other people. You don't know what people are going through. You don't know why they're acting the way they are. Being a gentleman is giving others the benefit of the doubt even when their behavior isn't ideal.

A basic need for good behavioral education
.... but the problem is that in Ch 10, the interview part, I was disappointed by the way that he actually talks.
I am sorry, is not my intention to be mean but I hoped to hear a gentleman speaking, witty words, clear and concise answers.
Overall, the book is a very good start for a gentleman in making.
Thank you.
