Develop an interest in other people

Road to success: develop a genuine interest in other people. This book has been in print for 70 years for a reason - absolutely everyone should read it. I you ever wondered how to make yourself more 'interesting', friendly, or turn yourself into a leader, I think you may be genuinely surprised by the contents of this book. I know I was. It's not about you, it's about 'them' - you can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you. I read the book, I took notes, and now I'm going to read it again.

This book may be the one that Created the Self-Help genre, and it's every bit as true today as it was when it was written many years ago. One of the loveliest parts about this book are the stories and anecdotes from the time when it was written. It was a simpler time back then. And the people faced such different dilemas than we do today. Yet, the more things change, the more things stay the same. The humanity of this books comes through loud and clear.
Incredible book
