  Despite his much-hyped culpability, Steven Paul Jobs was not devoid of creative vision. It was his sheer aptitude to foresee the future in the perspective of things that contemporaries even did not guess, that had transformed Apple from the darkest corner of a garage to the pinnacle of commercial glory.  
  It is also quite paradoxical that when the maiden iPhone was launched to the inquisitive sight of the larger audience, Steve Jobs was even himself skeptical about the supreme success of the gadget he had brought about. 
  The spur of technological evolution in itself is not intuitively decent or dreadful. The cause of concern is the basic human adaptability with fast-paced technological growth. Saving an exceptional calamitous incident in the offing, the super-fast journey of technological furtherance will proceed to the infinity.  
  In the realm of this reality, the modern rationalist human outlook is gradually disappearing from the philosophical scene of technological affinity, that was originally addressed to serve mankind.  
  This is what the relevant author and computer science faculty at Georgetown University, California viz., Calvin C. Newport speaks about in his much talked about book, Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World.

  Authentic influence is about more than creating a strong initial connection--it’s about sustaining professional relationships long after an agreement has been reached. 
  When others sense they are being pushed, their guard goes up. In business interactions, even if the person you are pitching to does comply with your requests, lingering resentment may undermine the relationship forever. So why do most books on influence still portray it as something you do to someone else to get your way? 
  Based on their commitment to listening, genuine engagement, and the pursuit of win-win outcomes, doctors and authors Mark Goulston and John Ullmen share a new method that business leaders can utilize to persuade others. 
  In Real Influence, Goulston and Ullem teach you how to:examine priorities,learn about the needs of key players,earn others’ attention,motivate others to hear more,and add value with question and actions. 
  Outdated approaches that portray influence as a means to get your way invites resistance and cynicism from those who recognize the techniques. Manipulative tactics fail to produce the mutual trust that sustains successful relationships. 
  Complete with examples of the steps in action and insights from real-world “power influencers,” Real Influence is a one-of-a-kind guide that showcases how being straight with everyone means winning for all.

  Summary of Never Split the...

  Negotiation is the heart of any collaboration. In his book Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It, Chris Voss through his research and experience in the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) as a negotiator, explains the best way to approach and win any kind of negotiation. 
  Each chapter begins with a fast-paced story of a hostage negotiation, which is then dissected to explain what worked and what didn’t. After explaining the negotiation theory and the tools, he describes real-life case studies from him and others who’ve used the tools to prevail while negotiating a salary, purchasing a car, or working out nettlesome problems at home. 
  Chris describes the principles and practices he deployed in the field into an exciting new approach designed to help the reader disarm, redirect, and dismantle his/her counterpart in any negotiation. And to do so in a relationship-affirming way. 
  Negotiation serves two distinct, vital life functions; information gathering and behavior influencing and includes almost any interaction where each party wants something from the other side. 
  What this book is really about, is getting you to accept negotiation and in doing so learn how to get what you want in a psychologically aware way. You’ll learn to use your emotions, instincts, and insights in any encounter to connect better with others, influence them, and achieve more.
