I just finished How to Win Friends & Influence People by Dale Carnegie. I know a lot of people have read this, but I serious didn't hear about this book until a few years ago. I really wished a high school teacher would have made this mandatory reading freshmen year or something. I learned more pratical real world principles in this book than I ever did from A Separate Peace or anything like that.
Regardless, the wisdom in this book is so strightforward, I somewhat upset at myself for not realizing these things on my own. It is so powerful, I will take the books advice and read it repeatedly (plus, the looks on people's faces from the train when they look at what I am reading is somewhat humerous).
This book has made me want to work and improve the relationships I am in and furthermore, make sure the new ones I start are strong ones.
This is a 10 out of 10 easily. Everyone should have to read this book (or at least be taught it in high school/college).
