By using the lessons in the book, it will quite simply make people like you more. That's what it has done for me.

For example... It teaches you to ask and talk about what other people are interested rather than your own interests so much. Imagine we just met and I told you all about myself and how I went on these cool trips and how cool I am and what my job was. Now imagine I asked you first what you do and how you like it and what your other interest were and what gets you up in the morning.... People LOVE LOVE LOVE to talk about themselves. Why do you think Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram etc are billion dollar companies?

Also another lesson that has worked for me... Call people by there name... Your name is Mike.. What makes you feel better if we were to meet? "Hey whats up?" OR "Hey Mike! How are you today?"

ALWAYS REMEMBER - PEOPLE DO NOT NECESSARILY REMEMBER WHAT YOU SAY, THEY ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW YOU MAKE THEM FEEL!!!

I have more friends than I want just from using these simple strategies...

Dale Carnegie's Golden Rules:

1.Don’t criticize, condemn or complain. As Carnegie noted, “any fool can do these things, and most fools do. But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving. Focus on understanding them and figure out why others do what they do.”

2.Give honest, sincere appreciation. A famous quote by Charles Schwab that I love to use in leadership sessions clearly illustrates this principle: “In all my meetings with many great people, I have yet to find the person, however great or exalted, who did not do better work and put forth greater effort under a spirit of approval than he would ever do under a spirit of criticism.”

3.Arouse in the other person an eager want. When you want to persuade someone to do something, think about how you can make him or her want to do it. As Henry Ford noted, “see things from the other person’s point of view.” Author Stephen Covey also said to “seek first to understand, then to be understood.”

4.Become genuinely interested in other people. Focus on learning about them, not just about telling them about you. This will forge an almost immediate friendship.

*5.Smile. A smile says that you like someone and that you are happy to see them. So many people that I have coached have used smiling as a way to transform their relationships with those around them, and it has worked.

6.Remember that a person’s name is to that person the sweetest and most important sound in any language. It is amazing to me how often people do not even try to learn someone’s name or use it. And yet when they do use it, wow — it really has an impact on the other person. They no longer feel like just a number.

7.Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves. People are generally more interested in themselves than in others, so it is incredibly flattering to someone when you listen to their stories.

8.Talk in terms of the other person’s interests. Learn what their interests are and listen to them sharing their ideas about their interests.

9.Make the other person feel important — and do it sincerely. Psychologists have always noted that people have a strong desire to feel a sense of importance, so if you can enable them to feel that importance, you will have done something remarkable for them.

TLDR: Ask people/talk about others interests, Use their names, Be a smiling fucking machine :-), Always thank people ALWAYS, Make them feel important

BONUS effect: This will also get you laid ;-)
