How to Win Friends and Influence People Today

How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie is the most famous self-help book ever written. In fact, a recent Library of Congress survey ranked it as the seventh most influential book in American history.

I know it’s hard to believe, but I first read How to Win Friends and Influence People when I was less than 10 years old. The reason for this strange fact is that my father loved reading success books, so he had a lot of self-help books on the bookshelves in our home.

Since I was desperate for my father’s approval, I thought that reading that book might help me to get it.

That’s why How to Win Friends and Influence People had a profound effect on me from a very young age.

But does this How to Win Friends and Influence People still apply in today’s modern world?

What It Means to Win Friends and Influence People

How to Win Friends and Influence People is organized in 4 sections:

  1. Fundamental Techniques in Dealing with People
  2. How to Make People Like You
  3. How to Win People to Your Way of Thinking
  4. Be a Leader: How to Change People Without Giving Offense or Arousing Resentment

Each of these sections has brilliantly named chapters, like…

  • The Big Secret of Dealing with People
  • A Simple Way to Make a Good First Impression
  • If You Don’t Do This, You’re Headed for Trouble
  • The Secret of Socrates
  • When Nothing Else Works, Try This
  • How to Criticize and Not Be Hated For It

Notice how every chapter in How to Win Friends and Influence People uses principles of copywriting like benefit and curiosity.

In short, it’s nearly impossible to pick up the book and not think, “Wow, I’d like to know more about that!”

Why It’s So Important to Win Friends and Influence People
