你無法忍受的人是指那些不按你意思去做的人、做你不想要他們做的事的人，而且你不知道要如何應付的頭痛人物。現在，你再也不用受他們的氣了！雖然你不能改變頭痛人物，不過，你可以用一種能讓他們改變自己的方式來和他們溝通，你就能在他們有不好的行為時，知道該怎麼應付他們。

本書將幫助你辨識並組合有效的溝通要素。

其實，和問題人物的溝通，就好像打電話一樣，如果想要電話接通，你撥的號碼順序就必須完全正確。即使只漏掉一個數字，你的電話就無法接通。如果事後才想到撥區域號碼，你的電話就會接錯線了。要是知道電話號碼、撥號的方法也正確、和你無法忍受的人進行完全的互動是可能的！

不幸的是，總有一些頭痛人物，無論你怎麼做，就是不願意接你的電話。面對這些並不多見的情況，你可以把應付無法忍受的人，想成是到了溝通健身房，頭痛人物會幫助你鍛鍊出溝通肌肉，並激發出你的溝通潛能，也許以後，這可能正是你在另一個時空，維持一次更有價值的關係所需要的力量。

面對人際問題，我們希望你的注意力能集中在以下四個主要領域：

１．首先，我們要看一下使人變得難纏的各種原因，碰到有人大吼大叫時，有人會不發一語，有人會發動反擊。這些有趣的差別正說明了不同的行為動機導致的差異。一旦你了解這些差異，就比較不會把這些棘手的行為當作是純粹個人的問題了。

２．再來，我們將檢視基本的溝通技巧，這將有助於化衝突為合作，轉情緒為理性，將暗中的計劃變成開誠佈公的對話。其實，在你平時與人相處時已經用上了這些基本技巧，但是在應付頭痛人物時，卻往往未能使用出來。我們會把溝通的過程說明白，讓你在遇到人們表現最糟的時候，可以活用這些技巧。

３．接下來，我們把焦點放在處理你無法忍受的十種棘手行為特定策略上，你將學會正確使人停止發牢騷、攻擊，發脾氣和不守信用。

４．在本書接近尾聲時，我們將論及如果你受不了自己時又該怎麼辦。到那時候，也許你已經看出自己也有些令人頭痛的行為，這一章會幫助你辨識並改變自己難纏的行為，因為你愈容易與人相處，要應付的棘手人物就愈少。

…When it comes to innovation, Apple CEO Steve Jobs is legendary. His company slogan "Think Different" is more than a marketing tool. It's a way of life--a powerful, positive, game-changing approach to innovation that anyone can apply to any field of endeavor.

These are the Seven Principles of Innovation, inspired by the master himself:
1. Do What You Love.
Think differently about your career.
2. Put a Dent in the Universe.
Think differently about your vision.
3. Kick Start Your Brain.
Think differently about how you think.
4. Sell Dreams, Not Products.
Think differently about your customers.
5. Say No to 1,000 Things.
Think differently about design.
6. Create Insanely Great Experiences.
Think differently about your brand experience.
7. Master the Message.
Think differently about your story.

By following Steve Jobs's visionary example, you'll discover exciting new ways to unlock your creative potential and to foster an environment that encourages innovation and allows it to flourish. You'll learn how to match—and beat—the most powerful competitors, develop the most revolutionary products, attract the most loyal customers, and thrive in the most challenging times. Bestselling business journalist Carmine Gallo has interviewed hundreds of successful professionals--from CEOs, managers, and entrepreneurs to teachers, consultants, and stay-at-home moms—to get to the core of Steve Jobs's innovative philosophies. These are the simple, meaningful, and attainable principles that drive us all to "Think Different." These are The Innovation Secrets of Steve Jobs.
