Dale Carnegie "How to Win Friends"
Who has read this book and what did you learn from it? What rules did you apply in practice and how did this book help you? An ingenious best-selling book by an American specialist in the field of human relations. Let's talk about it, write, I will be very grateful. I myself have not yet read it to the end, but I already understood a lot from it. I think about such a book it is worth creating a topic.Z.Y. Moderators please don't delete this thread.
eldar566 You're right, for sure, but you can still heed some of the advice in this book.
In Russia, this book does not work... But in the EU or the US, her advice goes with a bang... Superbook!
Certainly. It just doesn’t fit the Russian mentality, for example, the advice to smile more often, this doesn’t work in Russia, everyone just shied away from a constantly smiling person ...
This book also says "First make your interlocutor want something. The one who can do this will conquer the whole world, and whoever can't will be left alone."
This means that before telling the interlocutor about what you want, you need to think about what he wants, and without saying a word about your goal, based on what he wants to bring him closer to your goal. His sense of self-expression will be satisfied, and he will perceive the idea as his own, he will somehow comprehend it himself, he still needs to make it so that he wishes it and he understands that it is very beneficial for him and in his interests.
"If a wonderful idea comes to our mind, then why shouldn't we, instead of being proud of it in front of the interlocutor, let him think of it himself? Then he will perceive it as his own and will be happy to use it."
I read it, it was curious, minus, as in many American self-development books I read, everything is repeated many times, and the examples are interesting and the recommendations themselves are not bad. The main thing to remember is sincerity, the author emphasizes this a hundred times
