Dale Carnegie (Dale Carnegie, 1888-1955) was a famous adult educator and interpersonal relationship expert in the United States, the greatest master of success in the 20th century, and the father of modern adult education in the United States.Mr. Carnegie's ups and downs in life are a powerful testament to the fact that people with innovative ideas and passion will achieve amazing things. While in college, Dale Carnegie discovered that the most famous people were those who played football or baseball, as well as those who won debate and speech contests.Knowing that he had no athletic talent, he was determined to excel in public speaking.He prepared for this for many months, practicing on horseback and never giving up when milking the cows.However, despite Carnegie's best preparations, he suffered successive failures at first.But he persevered, and there was a turnaround—he started winning speeches.In this way, in the subsequent speech contests, he won the opponent almost every time, and even those classmates who had coached him before lost to him.

After graduating from college, Carnegie began to give correspondence courses to some adult universities.Although he put a lot of passion and energy into his work, his career did not make any progress.He was a little disappointed. Once, he lay on the bed in the hotel in broad daylight and wept bitterly.In this way, he went through twists and turns, and worked in various jobs such as salesman, actor, and writer to support his life.Later, he seriously summed up, explored his own strengths and advantages, and tried his best to persuade the New York Youth Christian Association to let him offer a speech course for local business people.As a result, he succeeded.Carnegie's courses grew in size, his reputation spread, and he became a traveling lecturer.He traveled frequently between New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and later London and Paris.

Professor William James, a famous psychologist and philosopher at Harvard University, believes that ordinary people only develop 1/10 of the abilities hidden in their bodies.It was in tapping into their hidden talents that Carnegie created one of the most important movements in adult education.Carnegie said that once anyone gets angry, he will be quick to speak and become very good at talking.Even the most clumsy person will stand up and argue with you immediately after being knocked down by others, and he is no less than a first-rate speaker.Therefore, as long as you have self-confidence and the impulse to express in your heart, then you will definitely speak very movingly.This is what the training course created by Carnegie wants to teach people.

What Carnegie taught is what countless Americans aspire to.He started out as a public speaking course, attended by business people, many of whom hadn't been in a classroom for more than thirty years.Most of the tuition fees are paid in installments, and they come to Carnegie training courses to get results, and to get results quickly-the next day can be a big victory in business meetings and group talks.To meet these needs of people, Mr. Carnegie invented a special training method - an astonishing blend of public speaking, salesmanship, interpersonal relationship and practical psychology.It is not bound by rigid rules, but it is very practical and fun.After each course, the people in the class also organized a club by themselves, meeting every 2 weeks, and this continued for many years.People often drive 50 or 100 miles to attend classes.There is a student who perseveres in coming to New York from Chicago every week to listen to Mr. Carnegie's training courses.

Over the past 35 years, the publishing industry in the United States has published more than 200,000 books, but most of these books are boring, and many of them are losing money.It was in this market situation that Dale Carnegie still decided to publish books.A manager of a large bookstore asked Mr. Carnegie very puzzled: "Why publish a book under such circumstances?" "Because it is to tell more people how to develop the potential that they had but never used!" - this is the purpose of Mr. Carnegie and the purpose of this book. Carnegie's success made him famous all over the world, and he was hailed as "except for the Statue of Liberty, perhaps only Dale Carnegie can represent the United States."

To develop the potential that you have but have not used, this is what this book will teach you.The famous Harvard professor James once said: "Compared with what we should achieve, we are only in a half-awake state. Now we only use a small part of our physical and mental resources. In a broad sense, human beings are still just Living in a small world where one's own potential is far from being developed. Human beings have various potentials, but they have not been developed and utilized." Carnegie once said frankly that what he has maintained for these years is not the income from teaching speeches, that is just Just by chance.His main job, he said, is to help people how to show their courage and overcome their fears.Through the intensive training in this book, you can strengthen your courage, self-confidence and enthusiasm, and naturally apply what you have learned to private conversations. You will find that it is not difficult to speak in public, and you will also be able to show charming eloquence .
