Daniel M.

Wide variety of related topics covered in this video series. Well presented, great stories that effectively illustrate key points, practical tips and tricks, and exercises to push folks out of their comfort zone. Very informative and interesting.

Ben Gregory J.

Made a huge difference in me. Jimmy is not just a great tutor but also someone whom we can look up to. He literally uplift my stress during these days and made me think there are a lot other things that I can do instead of wasting time just by stressing. I'm sure I'll be among the first in line to attend his new courses.

Rekha D.

It was one of the most insightful and empowering experiences I've had in a long time. What I loved most about Jimmy's course was that it wasn't just about "fake it till you make it" or putting on a false persona of confidence. Instead, he taught us how to cultivate genuine self-confidence from within, by embracing our strengths, learning from our failures, and taking action towards our goals.

Thanks Jimmy!!! It was truly an amazing experience and I truly loved every minute of the course!!

Stacy M.

I have always believed that I had tremendous self esteem but while learning the ropes in a new position I have wanted to expand my professional development and this course gave me a new way to look at work and life.

Sandra T.

The strategies presented in this course were very helpful in assisting me with tools to help myself and others develop better communication skills, inner confidence, how to start conversation with anyone, networking with business people, and other social dynamics. Thank you for equipping me with new and important social skills!

David P.

Highly recommended course for those wanting to improve skills i really liked the ideas discussed and concept of preparing elevator pitch.

Mirjan R.

I don't know if it's this course or my life who has changed me almost 30% the last 2 months, and it's quite a good percentage for me.

Thank you Jimmy, thank you my friend!

Popescu C.

Very pleased with my purchase. The course is filled with important techniques that help a person gain trust of others and interact with them. Learned and practiced some of them in real life and it really works. Jimmy is a really great public speaker and does a great job. Good work and keep it up.

Mariel A.

This course was just great!

I'm not a huge note-taker during the courses, but near to the end of the course I still decided that I just write down some of my key takeaways so far - just to be sure that I remember then also a year after.

I ended up writing down 15 key takeaways that all were so relevant and important - while not being even finalised the course. Thanks a lot Jimmy, it's a value for money.

Paweł J.

Over the last few days, I watched every single video made by Jimmy and I can now say with confidence that this course has exceeded all of my expectations! Each video contains relevant material presented concisely with great examples, very helpful advice that can be applied in everyday life straightaway (the phone trick completely blew my mind!), all presented with such confidence and professionalism. The videos were filmed in beautiful locations and settings which sometimes even made me feel as if I were just hanging out with a friend and listening to his useful advice over a drink or dinner. Definitely feels like time and money well invested. I'm forever grateful to you, Jimmy!

Mycole E.

I absolutely love this course. It teaches everything I hoped it would and so much more. I was able to apply what I have been learning as I have been learning it and I am already seeing great improvement in my social skills. Highly recommend.

Jody Z.

A lot of experience connecting with people all over the world. Who can do a better course? Usefull for all the people. I've looked for social skills for months, but anyway, i found new (cool) materials also in this course. And i have just started

Justyna B.

Very interesting and engaging course! I found there a lot of practical tips. It made me reconsider my unconscious behaviour - I realized how often I make mistakes in my social life and how easy it is to eliminate bad behaviour when you are aware of it.

I definitely recommend this course.

B L.

Fantastic course again by Jimmy, amazing teacher and top quality content. Highly recommend!

Volkan A.

The video "Be that ACTOR" was very inspiring.

After watched "How To Get Free VIP Treatment" I went to the coffe shop. I chatted with Employee and he introduced me with Founder of software Company and I'm going to start working at Monday!

Thx Jimmy! Good Luck everyone!

Dingding M.

Very engaging speaker with useful stories and tips. Brings the content in an understandable way and keeps your attention by being energetic enough.

Vince G.

It's rare you find a course that talks about topics like this (social dynamics) which has a perfect balance between general aspects and the practical, specific solutions. What I love about this instructor is he'll talk about the necessity of a general topic, such as being confident or having high self-esteem, and then he'll follow up with a specific action plan or blueprint that will get you where you need to be. It's these specific techniques I look for as a learner with a very systematic mindset. If you're like me, you'll be very pleased. Additionally, I like how he's "full" with his explanations of the "Why" behind everything.

Michelle G.

Great concepts, impactful and presented very clearly and succinctly. Really enjoying the course.

Kelly P.

Worth the money once again! Learnt some great tips for social interactions in life and business! Thanks again Jimmy!

Rachel B.

I enjoyed this instructor and the content. It is focused, fun, and engaging, all of the information is relevant and easy to apply.

Francisco I.

I really feel like I am learning a lot on social dynamics with this material. As usual, Jimmy's delivery is captivating, and the quality is truly top-notch, this time especially so for having been filmed in so many exotic locations. This course is truly gratifying in that it lives up to its name: Jimmy has long had exposure to all sorts of people from different backgrounds and different countries, and met thousands of people all over world, so I surely feel like he's one to listen from when it comes to connecting with others. I'd definitely recommend this course.

Dr. Roy N.

Only a man with guts can walk into a restaurant and record a video.

Only a man with genuine social skills can stand on a bridge and speak in front of a camera, unperturbed by the passersby.

Only a man with the ability to instantly connect with people can deliver a speech on a yacht.

I can go on endlessly. However, it all boils down to one thing: Jimmy has proven in this course that he is indeed the master when it comes to interacting with others. Thank you Jimmy for taking me on this educational journey, feeding me with knowledge and at the same time exposing another part of the world. I highly recommend this course to everyone

Jamie G.

This course for sure is my favorite. So genuinely taught and interesting, at the same time entertaining and exciting. The duration of each video is just perfect. Changes of location as well as various beautiful landscapes make you want to watch the next video and the next one…it never gets boring watching the course. Also the content of this course is high-quality. Jimmy presents many interesting, surprisingly effective and easily applicable techniques. I very much enjoyed watching the Haters-Video 🙂 Everyone has them. Thank you for giving advice how to deal with those people. Also the Scarface-Reference was nice. This course is just wonderful! Well done, Jimmy.

James T.

Yet another Awesome course..

Would love to see a video on "Attraction" Especially attracting woman. haha

Jorge U.

A very fun and enjoyable class, easy to follow and worth every penny. It was everything I expected, and I recommend to all.

I just started listening to this course. The material is uplifting to me, subjectively speaking. Mr. Navaraine (sic) is addressing issues that are important to me. This is the reason I decided to rate his class five stars. I hope anyone wanting to improve social skills will try his course. Thank you.

Sergey B.

This course was exactly what I needed in order to prepare for my presentations for graduate applications. In this course, Jimmy introduced me to necessary tools on how to become more relaxed and concentrated at the same time, interactive and open to conversations. Packed with loads of helpful tips and advice, this course will definitely encourage anybody to get in touch with whoever, whenever, wherever! 10/10 - Jimmy is getting better from course to course, very excited to even think of what Jimmy will produce next!! Many thanks!!!

Female A.

Have been a subscriber to Jimmy's YouTube channel for some time, and enrolled in some of his courses, this is particularly excellent. Not the cheapest course, but content is very good quality.

Suraj

It is a very good experience as I have learned so much about body language to present myself in a confident way.

Jeanette B.

I am the poster child for not being assertive and lacking confidence. I love this course and the messages for improvement.

Marc B.

Great video with constructive tips to boost confidence! Seems like common sense info but it’s actually things you never think to focus on, however when you do it makes a big difference in how you walk around through your day to day.

Anna M.

Great course, lesson 31 was so inspiring I've almost cried. Highly recommended.

Stephanie F.

This course was perfect for me! The confidence tools and challenges are steps that anyone can do to create a better version of themselves - no matter if you're an introvert, extrovert, or anything in between. It was also a pleasant surprise to see that Jimmy is a Spartan which made his story and his suggestions super relatable since I also enjoy challenging myself to Spartan obstacle course events. #aroo

Thilanga L.

One of the best short courses available under the mentioned topic. Instructor clearly explains the stuff which touches the pain points of an introvert. Thank you very much for this course and it really useful.

Gitiim O.

Dzien dobry! Good tools for everyday life. I have attempted some of the actions on my own in the past, but didn't know I was trying a technique! It's good to be able to relate to your teachings and be able to identify the actual tools, so I can be more aware of my behavior. Dziekuje bardzo!

Godswill O.

Dear Jimmy,

Your course is the bomb!!! The first thing i did after competing your course was to go researching how old your are, i found out we are same age. Which is very inspiring, i wish to be operating at your level of swagger right now.

I am a budding Technoprenuer based in Nigeria, but has had very difficult background growing up.

Your course is fantastic, I have been able to have a different look at how becoming successfully is, and have been able to evaluate my current state, what should be done and how i should go about doing it.

The part that inspires me the most is section 2 & 7. The messages are what i really need at this point in my life.

I actually sent you a linkedin friend request.

Best regards to you.

Pamela Nations-Weissman.

I love You! Ha ha _ I mean I love your course. As I was taking this course I got a text of a person needing to talk, to which I said sure I take a half-hour break at 12 noon and I can talk to you, but have to begin the course again t 12:30 sharp.

she said ok, but kept texting me and I thought to myself that this better be in lieu of the phone call. But at 10 of 12 she texted and said she was taking a nap and wanted to call me at 12;30 instead.

I texted- SURE! immediately I became angry with myself and I was on the self-assertive portion of the course and you said something which made me grab my phone and text back- actually, as I said earlier, I really need to begin the coursework at 12:30 so if you want, we can talk tomorrow at some point. (So how's this for a good review Jimmy! Thanks so much!

Edmund P.

I've been following Jimmy for quite a long time and he never fails to over deliver, even when it comes to a free course. Success leaves clues and these strategies will give you the results you want and deserve, no matter who you are and what you want to achieve. But enough talking, GET this course now 😉

Ramzi H.

Rimgaudas M.

Ravi V.

Every single point made in these videos make sense. We can correlate them with our life. I think if we can incorporate the techniques mentioned in these set of videos then be assure that we would be much better in many areas what we are today.

Ken H.

This course will give you plenty of great ideas on how to achieve the type of life you want. The instructor is enthusiastic and encouraging in his presentations. He encourages you to explore your vision and to set goals to achieve that vision. He shares many great quotes to encourage you along the way. He discusses the importance of pushing your comfort zone and challenges you to view obstacles or setbacks as opportunities to grow and learn. Sign up today, your time will be well spent!

Antonio Giancarlo A.

He explains with passion and transmit energy in all the lessons. Also Jimmy shows the big picture to be successful and recommendations in each video. Greetings!!!!!!!!

Great and Amazing course

Veronica J. K.

This is a sort of "sampler" of Jimmy's other courses, which go way more in-depth on the topics of Goal Setting, Productivity, Confidence, etc. It's produced in a style similar to "The Secret," so if you're a fan of that movie, you'll love this course.

As opposed to The Secret, Jimmy goes more into the practical application of the skills it takes to manifest your goals, rather than the abstract idea of just "putting it out there in the universe" and being "receptive" to the results.

If you don't already have the skills it takes to realize your goals, he'll teach you how to improve your skills in several key areas, and then how to apply those skills to get the results you want.

And if you're considering creating your own Udemy courses, Jimmy's courses are a great example of how to put together a winning curriculum and how to produce training videos that people can really connect with, while building your brand.

Martin G.

Knowing a little bit about Jimmy's story, I can say that he is a man who is striving to live all of those principles. Even in difficult situations, he tries to reframe and focus on the positive. And his determination and willingness to push himself out of his comfort zone is just off the scales. Very inspiring individual in person and on camera. You won't regret taking this course and even others from Jimmy. High class production!

Anna P.

The course helped me improve my time management strategy and also reassured me that I'm on the right track. THANK YOU, Jimmy.

Milciades A.

The instructor provides a very valuable information and he transmit confidence.

Taylor G.

Another great course. Top Quality and presentation. Great info. Some overlap with a couple of his other courses, but they are on similar topics so that is expected. Love the clear and straightforward​ actionable steps that are given to help drive us towards success. Thanks!

Иван

I went through this course and must say it has some gold nuggets in there. Very helpful tips and ideas that can improve many areas of life. Thank you for great course!

Vickie H.

I enjoyed learning how to boost my confidence. I have shared this with everyone I know.

Remi P.

Engaging, interesting guy to listen to. Once you start viewing the videos its hard to stop. I highly recommend, thanks!

Samuel M.

I really love the way Jimmy presents, he tells a story in each one of his lectures and makes everything really relatable. I've already introduced a lot of the topics like having a morning ritual and working on my grand vision. I always recommend his courses. Take it now if while you can!

Damaris P.

There’s a lot of good points he mentioned it gives you an idea on how to get yourself organized with your life and to set your goals. It is easy to follow with the training he’s providing.

Monica Nicolle D.

The course was very useful and presented in a very friendly approach. well done, Jimmy!

Mark P.

Great words to live by and practice daily! Highly recommended for literally everyone!

Tuan Anh T.

Great course to boost your motivation and confidence. I watch it during study breaks to remind myself why I'm doing what I'm doing. It helps me remind my purpose.

I haven't learned anything new honestly, but the course is so well put together that it's worth every second of your time watching it. I love the quotes Jimmy uses at the beginning and the background music. It really gets me pumped 🙂

Nichol B.

I really like how Jimmy has you take action right off the bat by posting discussions about your goals & fears & not waiting until the end of the course to get started. I am really enjoying it so far & am learning a lot of new things.

Anthony G.

So I was at direct selling company which have so many motivation event. And after few years I quit from that company, I almost never found good motivator. Motivator who speak clearly, and have a good material that can change our life. Whoever you are, if you want change your life i reccomend you to watch his lecture. Not just this topic, but all of his topic.

Anthony D.

Very simple and clear instructions, and not over complicated. Good length and very positive!

Claire T.

No judgments, everything is clear and this will definitely help to be a successful person!

Gloria J K.

Very interesting and informative course.

The instructor was congenial and engaging and was very knowledgeable.

David P.

I am a bid manager by profession, so am involved with many online meetings, however I've always struggled with self-esteem and self-confidence (i.e. I have none!). When expected to speak on team calls, I always feel very self-conscious and clam up.

I found this course very enlightening, and I'm actually surprised to feel that I'm looking forward to my next calls as a chance to put my new-found knowledge and attitude into practice!

Gareth P.

Great Material! Definitely feel equipped to be more confident in my virtual meetings, Thanks Jimmy!

Vladimir Z.

I went for several job interviews in my life and fail couple of those. Now I got this course and learned a lot, really a lot. I followed the course, worked hard, practicing, etc and it worked! It's allowed me to feel confident and very important to avoid mistakes that are clearly described in this course. Well done Jimmy!

Mirza Faraz B.

amazing course. gives you a 360 degree view of the interviewing recruitment process.I am up for more of these courses other than interview.

Milciades A.

I think this video should be in schools and library. It is a great tool. I am very satisfied. The instructor is fantastic.

Jon B.

I bought the course because I am looking for a new job and thought this might help. I've definitely gained a lot more valuable from this material than what I expected. I highly recommend for anyone looking to improve their work situation.

Khalid Ayman Ibrahim S.

It is an amazing and a well-structured course. I really like how the instructor kept changing the scenes so the videos don't feel boring. Also the videos are made short to be able to rewatch any of them easily later on.

Chinemerem O.

This was the best course i have ever completed on udemy. i love, love it. thank you so much

Taylor G.

This really helped me get my first job straight out of college. Thanks for the awesome course.

Stephen B.

My mother-in-law recommended this course for me. As Jimmy mentions in the video, a lot of people will watch this and not do many of the prep activities he recommends. This is a mistake, they really do help. I'm not a fan of networking with people but it absolutely helps you obtain a better attitude about getting that new job. It's uncomfortable at first but if you have strong motivations (I have my baby girl) it helps drive you to success.

Colin B.

Well delivered and relevant information. Some crossover from Jimmy's other courses, but everything he repeats here is worth hearing a second time!

Oluyemi O.

Great course. I love the choice of location. It's inspiring and encouraged me to want to get closer to nature. Throughout the course, I loved that Jimmy used relatable scenarios and examples. At some point, it felt so real that I often said, "You are talking about me, Jimmy"

Lauren K. C.

I got the job 🙂

There were a few precious tips in this course that I hadn't heard before and I don't think would be easily found on the internet. One of the questions came up that I wouldn't have prepared for properly, but thanks to this course I nailed it!

Pranav Y.

Awesome work and I like the fact that the instructor takes his job very seriously and is really concerned about sharing useful practical knowledge. Love it!

Amy L B.

I absolutely LOVE this course.

There was so many things that I realized I did, but NOT consistently, and I needed to be more consistent with.

I do love the content. I have MANY pages of notes, and I can't wait to get started on a weekly journal (for a few different points in this course).

Anita C.

It is my second course with Jimmy. I am really enjoying his style, materials and message. It is easy to follow and pleasant to see.

I am taking notes and getting ready for my upcoming interviews.

He also gives great tips on salary negotiation.

Silvia E.

It has been a great investment so far. The author is clear, concise and direct to the point. The examples provided have been very useful and interesting.

Tara M.

This course is very well organized, very well presented and has awesome content that has been very helpful to me. Also, the change of scenery helps to keep me engaged.
