How to Win Friends and Influence People: Part 2, Principle 1





To start off part two, Carnegie advises the reader to become genuinely interested in others.  He says that this will win you more friends in two months than you could win by talking about yourself for two years.  Again, this is so incredibly true.  When my husband comes home from work he really doesnt want to hear about how hard my school day was.  He wants me to ask him about his day.  What is interesting about applying this to a relationship is that both parties have to take turns sacrificing their want to be heard for the realtionship to be successful.
