BOOK MARK |
|
| "How to Win Friends & Influence People" |
|
Authors: Dale Carnegie
Price : 8.5$ |
|
More than just getting along well with people
I think the title of this book may be misleading in that just about everyone can get along with people, and win friends. The part of the title that most people have the ability to influence others especially in a way that makes them happy and willing to do what you ask.
As a supervisor for a department of 50 people, I found it was easy to get people to do what I asked them because I was the boss. After reading How To Win Friends and Influence People, I was able to get people to do what I asked not because I was there supervisor, because they wanted to.
In addition, I have always found that there are always some people (many times my supervisors) who completely lack people skills. Dale Carnegies book taught me how to work with those people as well.
I highly recommend How To Win Friends and Influence People to anyone who wants to significantly improve their people skills and especially their ability to positively influence people.
Great book!
Develop an interest in other people
Road to success: develop a genuine interest in other people. This book has been in print for 70 years for a reason - absolutely everyone should read it. I you ever wondered how to make yourself more 'interesting', friendly, or turn yourself into a leader, I think you may be genuinely surprised by the contents of this book. I know I was. It's not about you, it's about 'them' - you can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you. I read the book, I took notes, and now I'm going to read it again.

How to play to your Strengths |
|
There is a
common mistake many people make when they want to improve their
people skills. You may even make the same mistake at times
without noticing.
This mistake involves focusing so much on your apparent
weaknesses that you neglect your strengths and dis-empower
yourself even further. Self improvement then becomes a painful
introspective experience that never improves your life.
How to know if you make this mistake...
Are you overly aware of your so called weaknesses while tending
to ignore all of the things you do so well?
It is easy to take for granted what comes naturally to you. And,
very easy, to discount the value of personal qualities that are
second nature to you.
For example, let's say you are quiet, sensitive and thoughtful.
These are very positive traits depending on the context.
You are likely to be a good listener, great at reading others
and quick to spot changes in relationship dynamics.
The kicker.
Consequently, you may be the kind of person who can see the big
picture while others are too involved in a discussion to notice
what else is going on.
How to Play To Your Strengths
Your personal traits are not good or bad, not valuable or
worthless and not simply strengths or weaknesses. It is not
black and white. Instead it all depends on the situation and how
you use your communication style.
Now, the common mistake people make is to feel bad about not
being more outgoing. They put themselves under pressure to be
something they are not and this only makes it even more
difficult to speak up and be authentic.

Be yourself!
When you play to your strengths it feels natural. You are no
longer trying to be someone you are not. And the result of this
is that you relax, others then respond more favorably to what
you say and how you say it.
Let's say you are softly spoken. Work with that trait and you
will speak with authority and congruence without needing to
raise your voice. You CAN command attention while speaking
softly. It all depends on doing it with style - your style.
A powerful distinction.
Developing great people skills is a question of strategy - play
to your strengths and be yourself. This is the key to making a
great impression whenever you meet new people and
a sure fire way to form lasting friendships that enrich your
life.
Then, with a solid foundation based on your true personality you
can become even more charming by dropping the energy drains that
hold you back.
How?
By letting go of fears that stop you from expressing yourself
with confidence. Sooner than you expect, you will find yourself
happier in yourself and more expressive.
And every time you expand your sense of who you are - you will
notice something unusual happens. The more you like yourself the
more others will like you - they reflect it back
to you. It sounds weird but it is true.
Ever had a day when you felt fantastic and could hardly stop
smiling? Remember how other people were much more responsive to
you that day? Imagine if that was everyday. It can be.
Amazing but true!
That's what happens when you drop the energy drains that hold
you back. You unlock your true personality and the world
responds instantly.
Making friends becomes much easier, people are happy to help you
and... you become much more popular because everyone wants to be
around someone like you who has the courage to be authentic.

"Physicists have
discovered that the apparent solidity of matter is an
illusion created by our senses. This includes the physical
body, which we perceive and think of as form, but 99.99 % of
which is actually empty space. This is how vast the space is
between the atoms compared to their size, and there is as
much space again within each atom. The physical body is no
more than a misperception of who you are. In many ways, it
is a microcosmic version of outer space.... So your physical
body, which is form, reveals itself as essentially formless
when you go deeper into it. It becomes a doorway into inner
space. Although inner space has no form, it is intensely
alive. That "empty space" is life in its fullness, the
unmanifested Source out of which all manifestation flows.
The traditional word for that Source is God." - Eckhart

Waiting
So sisters and brothers, with all the love that one can
muster for you, it is love that must tell you the truth. And
the truth is that if you don't build it for yourself, don't
blame anybody else. My destiny is in my hands. God helps.
God doesn't hinder. He doesn't push you back. He says, "I am
waiting."

Story
Time - The horse that wanted more beauty |
A cosmic god had a horse. The
horse was beautiful and also it had many good qualities.
But it wanted to be more perfect in every way. It
especially wanted to become beauty unparalleled.
One day the horse said to the cosmic god, “0 Lord, you
have given me beauty. You have given me other good
qualities. I am so grateful to you. But how I wish you
could make me more beautiful. I would be extremely,
extremely grateful if you could make me more beautiful.”
The cosmic god said, “I am more than ready to make you
more beautiful. Tell me in what way you want to be
changed.”
The horse said, “It seems to me that I am not well
proportioned. My neck is too short. If you can make my
neck a little longer, my upper body will be infinitely
more beautiful.
And if you can make my legs much longer and thinner, then
I will look infinitely more beautiful in my lower body.”
The cosmic god said, “Amen!” Then immediately he made a
camel appear in place of the horse. The horse was so
disheartened that it started to cry, “0 Lord, I wanted to
become more beautiful. In what way is this kind of outer
form more beautiful?”
The cosmic god said, “This is exactly what you asked for.
You have become a camel.”
The horse cried, “Oh no, I do not want to become a camel;
I wish to remain a horse. As a horse, everybody
appreciated my good qualities. Nobody will appreciate me
as a camel.”
The cosmic god said, “Never try to achieve or receive more
than I have given you. If you want to lead a desire-life,
then at every moment you will want more and more. But you
have no idea what the outcome will be. If you cry for a
longer neck and legs, this is what will happen. Each thing
in my creation has its own good qualities. Stick to what
you have been given".

Inspirational Words |
"Good will...is an immeasurable and tremendous energy, the
atomic energy of the spirit." - Eleanor B. Stock
"The sorrow of knowing that there is evil in the best is far
out-balanced by the joy of discovering that there is good in
the worst." - Austen Fox Riggs
"Mistakes are painful when they happen, but years later a
collection of mistakes is what is called experience." -
Denis Waitley
"That which you create in beauty and goodness and truth
lives on for all time to come. Don't spend your life
accumulating material objects that will only turn to dust
and ashes." - Unknown
"Realize that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time
and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in
the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in
having or in getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share.
Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others
without getting a few drops on yourself." - Og Mandino
"You can't be too kind or too generous." - Patricia Fripp
"One of the greatest gifts you can give to anyone is the
gift of attention." - Jim Rohn
"If you know what to do to reach your goal, it's not a big
enough goal." - Bob Proctor
"A dream is your creative vision for your life in the
future. It is what you would like life to become. A goal is
what, specifically, you intend to make happen. Goals should
be just out of your present reach, but not out of sight." -
Denis Waitley
"Set clear goals and make written plans for each part of
your life." - Brian Tracy
"A dream is just a dream. A goal is a dream with a plan and
a deadline." - Harvey Mackay

Time to Smile |
Life is Like that
The Definition of Fame
Three guys are talking about what constitutes fame. The
first guy defines it as being invited to the White House
for a chat with the president.
"Nah," says the second guy. "Real fame would be if the
red phone rang when you were there, and the president
wouldn't take the call."
"You're both wrong," says the third. "Fame is when
you're in the Oval Office and the red phone rings, the
president answers it, listens for a second, and then
says, "'It's for you.'"
