Not the biggest fan of self help books. Found one or two pearls though...

This was a fantastic read. Nothing necessarily new, but great reminders on solid principles and a new twist in presentation that really resonated with me. This helped me greatly in a few areas that I felt "stuck".

I checked this out of the library based on curiosity. I had heard of Dale Carnegie, but didn't know much about him/his training.

This book talks about Kipling and class, but ultimately advocates style over substance. It could have been a handbook for politicians or used car salesmen. It reminded me of people I know who are very inspirational, but ultimately hollow, superficial and disappointing, because they don't have the knowledge or ability to back up their words. All flash and no substance. It also had a manipulative, Machiavellian tone that made me very uncomfortable.

You might succeed following this advice, but you won't be a good person.

There were some interesting takeaways from the book if you don't take it too seriously. I thought it interesting to describe how he tried to improve himself. I'm the kind of person that thinking to hard about the right way to do everything stresses me out. So I thought his interesting to listen to, but not something I'm going to try and change about me in my everyday life.

Me gustó, abarca muchas lecciones simples y fáciles que toda persona puede implementar en su vida diaria; por momentos se centra en muchos tecnicismos y eso me hizo hacer la lectura más lenta, sin embargo en general es fácil de leer, tiene muchos aprendizajes, es un libro al que volvería por enseñanzas específicas. ¿Lo recomiendo? Sí.

Como se tornar inesquecível é uma grande conversa introdutória sobre o mundo comercial no estilo de Dale Carnegie. Parece um pouco Napolean Hill contemporâneo, só que mais resumido mas também com doses de ciência meio boboca (aqui ninguém ficou falando em telepatia pelo menos kkk) e ao mesmo tempo não boboca (por causa de uso de psicologia em neurociência, embora as explicações usem termos alusivos ou de conversa informal
- o que pode ser bom).
No final é um training pragmático e direto. Tem uma escrita honesta e as vezes parece que estamos dialogando com alguém maduro do mercado, falando pra nós em posição de funcionário e executivo. Mas as recomendações são pontuais como de post de blog. Muitas delas exigem toda uma literatura completar: o que não invalida o conteúdo porque de forma geral ajuda mapear áreas de aprimoramento.

Seja uma pessoa de classe.

predictable - nothing new

Hørte på lydbok på storytel.
Mye lærdom å hente, men ikke den beste boken jeg har hørt på. Dale Carnegie har mange bra ideer og forslag, og mulig jeg må lese et kjapt referat av boken for å minnes igjen

Great life lessons on how to carry yourself, more about being a class act.

Another good system with lots of good information. Though, don't be surprised when most of the points taught in this book are lessons in honesty. If you can be honest, you can be classy. If you're one of those people that has a tendency to cut corners in the honesty department or have commitment issues, this books offers some good advice to remedy that. Enjoy!

So yeah... I basically went on a highlighting frenzy with this one, thus beating the purpose of notes and highlights. :/
