Steven shares the book that has had the greatest impact on him. The book he shares is How to Win Friends and Influence People. He gained great value from the book, including the advice to take time to learn and memorize names.
He also loves the line from the book about the fact anybody can criticize, complain and most people do but it takes a real individual of character to compliment and find the good.
