Dale Carnegie

How to stop worrying and start living

Timeo Williams

Coming from an individual questioning the importance/authenticity of the religion he was raised to believe, this book came at an awesome time.

Dale made some very interesting observations and he ties that in with stories of American heroes suffering with the same thought patterns and their solutions, which are often identical to Dale's. 

Some gold nuggets:

Dale was asked what the biggest lesson he has ever learned. To which he replied, " By far the most vital lesson I have ever learned is the importance of what we think... Emerson said: 'A man is what he thinks about all day long.' " (113)

How to Stop Worrying and Start Living

I read less than 100 pages of this book. Didn't even make it halfway. But I didn't need to. The first 2 tips have really been a game-changer for me, and I'm pretty satisfied with how they have helped me manage my worrying. If I feel like those strategies aren't working for me anymore, I will absolutely go back to the library for this book and get another few tips.

FYI this book is mostly composed of anecdotes. After reading of 2 or 3 cases where a particular strategy has helped a person, you can definitely skim to the next chapter if you so choose and not miss a thing.

Common sense plus storytelling plus true stories plus Jesus. Do you still wonder why this is still a perennial seller? I got bored before reaching 50 percent 😒
