bailedIn the earlier portion of the book I found many good points but unfortunately as I progressed through the book, I found myself not being able to engage any further as it was becoming increasingly repetitive and redundant. I bailed at page 59.
pickDale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People continued to amaze me with its simple but riveting points. Carnegie would use light praise or questioning instead of ordering to be more likable. Carnegie used personal and historical anecdotes throughout the book to convey his points. Unlike the beginning, which I already posted about, many of the suggestions became more complex compared to the first few.
“Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, ‘I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you.”
pickThis book has transformed me from a socially immature person to a more socially skillful person. At first, I didn‘t know how to settle an argument and believed that winning an argument can earn my pride. This book tells me I‘m totally wrong. Winning an argument loses others‘ faces and takes away their precious self-pride.
Highly recommend if you want to polish your social skill. It‘s my life saviour.
