How To Win Friends And Influence People

Summary: Awakening
Review: October 29th, 2003 I discovered this book by Dale Canegie. I believe that was the day my fortunes turned. In the week and half that i've read this masterpiece, I sense a new me emerging. I"ve been putting into action many of the principles in human relations outlined by this book and it seems to be working miracles for me. I still find it difficult putting everything Dale says into play, but with time and perseverance it can only get easier. I find myself to be in better spirits and generally more confident around people. People really do respond to genuine kindness and go out of their way to reciprocate. I have recommended this life saver to my family and friends. Let me add, they sensed a change in me. It was too great to keep a secret. This book has been around since the 30's but for me it's tantamount to the discovery of a planet.

Review: Dale Carnegie's "How To Win Friends And Influence People" is one of the all time best known books on the human relations aspects of leadership. As an instructor in the Dale Carnegie Course for years, I always recommend it to my present day clients who come to my consulting firm for advice on the practical how-to's of leadership. During the years, I sought an easy-to-read, easy-to-understand companion book on the philosophical basics behind leadership, in general, and, Dale Carnegie's thinking, in particular. Now, finally, I have a book that I have been recommending to clients that is probably the most little known, most extensively researched book on leadership philosophy ever written, "West Point: Character Leadership Education" by Norman Thomas Remick. Please understand that I have nothing to gain by recommending these books. My only interest is in having satisfied, successful customers.

Summary: Practical wisdom
Review: This is the only book I know of that gives you step-by-step instructions on how to start ensnaring the weak with the power of your own charisma, turning your friends and loved ones into blindly obeisant sheep willing to cater to your every whim without a second thought.

Still, I didn't lose any weight. I recommend "Siddhartha."

Summary: Golden rules that forever true
Review: Although Dale Carnegie wrote this book in the early 30¡¦s, the rules are still applicable in today¡¦s world.
When I read this book it was surprise that I have those characters, criticize, think myself interest¡K and these are the common mistake.
After reading this book, I learned how to duel with others and make people like me. I think the most powerful technique is ¡§Smile¡¨ it is because there are numerous advantages when you smile such as make you look friendly, reduce the tense feeling and create happiness¡K
This book is highly recommended to everyone because you will find that we are performing a common mistake that we don¡¦t know. And if you want to be more successful in dueling with people, read this book.

Summary: Wisdom never changes
Review: If we read other "How To" books on subjects like gardening, cooking, and business, why not one on how to interact with people? Unless you are a hermit, this is something that you are going to have to do the rest of your life! The principles in this book work because they are based on truth. I highly recommend it.
