There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegie’s book named How to Win Friends and Influence People is the most famous one. The book first came out in 1936. This book is about getting along with other people and it became a best-seller after it came out. It was later translated(翻译) into about 60 languages. Dale Carnegie’s advice seems easy to understand. Can his advice help you? Here is the list of advice from his book.
Be friendly and polite. Always greet others with a smile. When you talk with someone, you can begin with “Excuse me” or “Would you please ...?” When you get help from others, remember to say “Thank you!”. What’s more, you should try to be as friendly as you can.
Try to be nice. Find some time to do special things for other people. Making some soup for a sick neighbour may seem like a small thing, but it will make your neighbour feel much better.
Remember people’s names. The most beautiful music to a person is the sound of his or her own name.
Be open-minded. Try to understand other people’s ways of doing things and their ideas, and learn something from them.
