Reddit reviews Never Lose Again: Become a Top Negotiator by Asking the Right Questions

What type of negotiation? Asking a kid to clean up, getting a job, buying a car, making love, making war? There are so many different things to negotiate about. I found this to be a nice book about negotiating bussiness deals: https://www.amazon.com/Never-Lose-Again-Negotiator-Questions/dp/0312643489/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1483884030&sr=1-1&keywords=never+lose+again ( it used to be on kickass torrents)

So you cant get a job in the local industry & you got dumped..
hm, it sucks.. It's a reality of life though and now you are a free man !

Ok, that does sound like a sob story to me. People survived the holocaust & after they got liberated they picked up on life as well. People in Rwanda got raped & their limbs got cut of by people with Machettes. Yet they moved on and carved out an existenc for themselves. You know why

They had no other option.
Here are some quotes: https://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/2782.Viktor_E_Frankl

Right now you feel like bad, the things you went through were shit and if you stay depressed they your whole life will be shit and that would be a waste of your life. A good place to start is to change the ideas that you have.

Watch stuff from Bob Proctor, go and see Bob Proctor he lives in Canada if im not mistaken ! See Tony Robbinson on Youtube, watch stuff from Brian tracey (in short get inspired)

Work on getting passionate about stuff again, watch motivational video's, investigate the things that previously made you feel passionate. Heraclitus (old greek philosopher) said that there is only one constant in the universe and that is change.
From personal experience i think that a psychologyst can not really help you in getting you there with questions that make you zoom in on your uncertainties. If you pay to attention to that then your uncertainty's will grow on the inside of your mind. In turn i sugest that you try to pay attention to what you want to manifest in your life.

You mentioned an ambition to get into IT, is that software developement ? If it's programming then you can self teach yourself by regulary taking time to study this topic. There are many good (and free) courses available online.

Sales is also a good job, also a field in which you have to educate yourself in order to get better at it.
I found this to be a good book: http://www.amazon.com/Never-Lose-Again-Negotiator-Questions/dp/0312643489

Other than that, you can watch videos that discuss the type of mentality that you need to propperly do sales on youtube. (google Zig ziglar & sales training etc) The "you need this sofa" arguments would be insulting to anyone with an IQ above roomtemprature. But what about :"In my opinion this sofa could be a good choice for you considering the space in your house and your budget" (thats of course after you asked questions at that customer in order to get an idea about what they need) Sales is about helping people to make a purchase decision (Zig Ziglar is quite religious about this) i think though that it can be a wonderfull job! And you can also go a long way if you really do it well & you dont need a degree for it.

(although getting a degree against a favorable loan would be a good investment) 8% study loan is not a favorable loan though and neither is 4 %. Education is getting really expensive on your side of the globe (although i dont know how this is aranged in Canada)

You fell from your horse, get back on it.

I hope that helps,
