It’s an oldie:

May 11, 2009

I recently ordered a copy of Dale Carnegie’s book, ” The Quick and Easy Way to Effective Speaking”.  Quite honestly, I ordered it because I am always hungry for knowledge ( see the editor’s note) it was cheap, and small enough to finish in a day.  Of course, I realize that the author with the title of America’s First Billionaire, did know a thing or two about being successful!  I hoped to get one “jewel” out of this little book, but when the first paragraph referred to Mr Carnegie’s first speaking course in 1912, I did hesitate for a second.  ” Can I really find something pertinent in a book this dated?”  The answer is a resounding, “Yes!”  It’s full of timeless tidbits, and tips on presenting yourself.  It’s worth the time, and definitely one of the easier investments that I have made… I found it on Amazon for $3!
