HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE – SUMMARY

“How to Win Friends and Influence People” is a masterpiece by Dale Carnegie—perhaps the most straightforward book exhibiting the idea of how you can be better with human relations. All the principles addressed in the book make total sense. It’s not a book that you read for entertainment, although I did take it up to read for passing time. The book doesn’t project much regarding winning friends. All the principles are largely to influence people, and I suppose the author intends to say that you can win the friendship of Read more…

TEMPERAMENT

In a village named Malandour lived two 40-year-old men of contrasting temperaments—Kabir and Ranbir. Both of them were neighbours. Kabir was good-natured with everyone and offered help to people in need whenever possible. Thus, he was respected by every villager.   On the other hand, Ranbir was downright parsimonious. He was always unwilling to spend money or time for others, which, according to him, was futile and of no use. Though nobody complained about his behaviour with the society in public, he was quite disliked and badmouthed behind the back. Read more…

It was planned that nine of us would be coming, but only three excluding me turned up. We chat and ate, and were coming back home from the restaurant. All of us were Read more…

Almost two centuries back, Read more…

DEATH AWAITS ON THE EVE

It was the time of Christmas. Everyone was excited, especially kids. Christmas was the happiest time for children, as they believed Santa Claus visited their house at midnight to gift them. So, before sleeping, they usually keep an enormous bag or sock beside their bed.   I was not a Christian to celebrate Christmas, but I sure was ready to receive gifts. Although I did get Christmas gifts each year, I never believed that Santa Claus existed. All I thought was that these gifts were kept next to my bed Read more…
