Features: Dale Carnegie, the greatest success mentor of the 20th century, tells you: the shortcut to success, how to avoid life's pitfalls, how to knock on the door of success early, and the habits of a successful life. The weaknesses of human nature are not based on objective physiological conditions; they are primarily psychological and spiritual, depending on subjective spiritual qualities such as will, character, and personality. In reality, there is often such a situation: we often feel gloomy because we lack a pair of shoes. Similarly, if 100 is the highest score in life, those who score above 90 are still a minority. Related to this, the situation is that even those who score 90 still often feel like failures and complain about their misfortunes; some who score far below 90, on the other hand, rejoice as if they had won the lottery. Of course, there may be personal differences in self-expectations, leading to different feelings, but the difference between dissatisfaction and complaining is clear. Continuing the topic of lacking a pair of shoes, suppose you come to the street and see someone missing an arm or a leg. How do you feel? Are you still upset about those shoes? If your answer is "yes," then—please read every page of this book word for word. The reason is simple: you have exposed a fatal weakness of yours—you are not truly penniless. The solution is—count your blessings.
