The book I'm going to recommend today has a lot of history. The earliest version I saw, when I was in middle school, was one of the "Pentagon Books" (yes, a book only needs five corners), called "The Weakness of Human Nature", and now I don't know how many versions of the Chinese version have been published, how many times it has been printed, how many copies have been issued, and it is estimated that billions of copies are also possible, which can be regarded as classics among classics, and may even be regarded as the originator of successful learning.

This book is basically about "dealing with the world", which is very suitable for people with certain social experience, especially for people who have certain social experience and often feel uncomfortable. Of course, people with no social experience can also read it, if it is because there is no real thing to correspond to, it is likely to feel unnutritious, it is a chicken soup text, you can think so, you may wish to remember to find this book in a few years to see, I believe you must have experienced.

Book Excerpt: I love fishing, and every summer I go fishing in the Maine area. Strawberries with whipped cream are my favorite food, but every fishing enthusiast knows that fish don't like to eat strawberries with whipped cream, only small worms. So every time I go fishing, I don't think about what I want to eat, I think about what the fish like to eat. The baits I use are bugs or grasshoppers, not strawberries with whipped cream. When you need to get a need from someone else, why not borrow this approach?

Note: Salesman, talk about your own products, it is better to sink down to find out what problems customers want to solve?What's so difficult about him?What's so painful about him?

Book Excerpt: It's a good thing to admit mistakes, but there are very few people who are really willing to admit them. The psychologist Gobert said that people only admit mistakes "harmlessly" when it comes to old things that are insignificant. This is a humorous statement, but it is true. Therefore, in other words, it is very foolish for you to let others admit their mistakes. Of course, those who are forced to confess their mistakes under certain forces are exceptional, because what they do is contrary to human nature. Since there are so few people who admit their mistakes, and the purpose of argument is nothing more than to show that others are wrong, it seems completely unnecessary to argue.

Note: There are many similar things in work and life, right?

Book Excerpt: When communicating with others, it is best to say less about your own life experience, encounters, likes and dislikes, you should learn to be a listener, always show interest in the conversation of others, and be able to listen attentively to what the other person is saying. There is no harm in doing so for yourself, and the compassion you show for others is the most beloved and important gift in their hearts.

Book Excerpt: Most people agree that education is a process of enriching one's mind through books and teachers. Once education is neglected, whether because of a lack of opportunities or a lack of good use of them, the only hope left is self-improvement. There are many opportunities for self-improvement around us, and self-improvement can reap a lot of benefits. There are so many cheap books and free libraries out there that we can't find any reason not to take advantage of these rich resources to improve our own level and enrich our knowledge.

Book Excerpt: To find the secret recipe for happiness, I consulted with Mr. Robert Harkin, president of the University of Chicago. "I've been following a little piece of advice, which the late Sears chairman Julias Rosenward told me," he said. He said, 'If you have a lemon in your hand, why not squeeze a glass of lemon juice!'Great people do what the Chicago principal does, but the average people do a far cry. If people find out that life has given him only a lemon, he will say, "I'm finished!".That's fate. I didn't even have a chance. Then he began to curse the world, and began to feel sorry for himself, and he gave up on himself. However, when a wise man gets a lemon, he says, "What can I learn from this failure?"How can you eat a trench, grow wise, how can you make this lemon into a glass of lemon juice?”

Go ahead and take time out of your month to read this book and make your life better!
