Hello these are my notes and takeways from reading Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People book.
• In Chapter 2: Give Honest and Sincere Appreciation, I really loved the part about always complimenting and never criticizing. In general, pointing fingers at others for their errors seldom helps; instead, it enrages or offends them. They can learn from their mistakes without needing to be reprimanded if you give them praise and offer an alternative to what they're doing.
• Carnegie is aware that human beings crave appreciation, however little it may be, the pragmatic method of giving an employee, friend, or family member what they want can be the key for them to unlock their potential and having them respect you more.
