How to be Street Smart

Street smart is one of those phrases we hear a lot but rarely think about. Everyone wants to be street smart, but as Yaser Qandeel discovered in his experience and research for this book, it means many different, even contradictory, things to different people. How to Be Street Smart clears up the confusion and shows anyone who really wants to be street smart how to go about it step by step.

For Yaser, being street smart is more than just a term in the dictionary or a trendy catchphrase. It means having self-respect, confidence, skills, knowledge of people and what motivates them, and a no-nonsense understanding of how the real world works. It is about finding your own way in life, overcoming challenges, and winning other people to your side-whether in the world of business and entrepreneurship or in dating and relationships.

How to Be Street Smart is a practical guide to success in your own business or side hustle and on the dating scene and every aspect of life. If you're tired of working for others in the 9 to 5 treadmill and getting friend zoned or ghosted in the online dating scene, this book is for you. Yaser Qandeel lays out-in an honest, straightforward style-the hard-headed, go-getter mindset you need to develop and the pragmatic steps you can take to put that street smart mindset to work in your life today.

Being street smart means being always ready to learn new skills and ideas in order to be exceptional, not ordinary-a winner, not a loser. It's about never taking no for an answer, picking yourself up and trying again when you fall short, and learning to use your hard-earned street smarts and problem-solving skills to make things work for you rather than accept what others are willing to give you. If you have these qualities, people will see you as a leader. You'll be able to go as far as you want.

Most people live their whole lives unable to achieve their dreams. But using the street-smart mindset taught in this book, the sky will truly be your limit.
