Summary: Best self-enhancment book read by far!!!
Review: At the beginning of a Dale Carnegie Course, we were given three books: "How To Stop Worrying and Start Living", "How to Win Friends and Influance People", and "The Quick and Easy Way to Effective Speaking". Out of these books "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living" hits home with most individuals that worry too much about the past and future. This book shows examples and ways to overcome the sickness of worry that occures in our everyday lives. Thus, how to live a happy and healthy life. While reading "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living" you'll notice a lot of what is written applies to people you know and yourself. Again, best self-enhancment book read so far!

Summary: The most useful self-help book I have ever found.
Review: With blunt candor, but compassionate understanding, Dale Carnegie helps to bring out the best in you through this book. He quotes a wide range of sources from Aristotle to Alfred Adler. He documents his sources precisely, and offers his own experience as well. Worth reading and following. I followed it for a year and it improved my health, income, and peace of mind.

Summary: This book has changed my life a lot
Review: Hi, my name is Stefan Nagel and I am an actor living in germany. Since I have read this book about 18 month ago, my life has changed a lot. I see things with a much different eye than I used to and notice much earlier when I start to worry about things that are not worth worrying about.
I really can recommend this book to everybody.
Thank you Mister Carnegie. With deep respect
Stefan Nagel

Summary: Practical Handbook
Review: Carnegie's HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE is one of the classic "self-helps" of the 20th century. HOW TO STOP WORRYING is as inspirational and helpful as the former.Worry seems to be one of the greatest personal problem one can 'own' in our modern, western world. We worry a lot, it seems. And, lots of times, we worry about needless things. Carnegie's book is a practical, applicable, and easy-to-read handbook on conquering this modern dillema. In PART TEN of the book, the author included essays from people who have 'conquered' worries. One of my favourites would have to be an essay by a Colonel Eagan, where he informed us that everytime he worries he "GO THE GYM AND PUNCH THE BAG".

Summary: Great, even my 9 year old loves it
Review: I have a great life but have always been crippled by worry. This book (audio CD) has really helped. I listed to it on CDs while I drive on long journeys. I have heard it a few times and imagine I will continue to listen to it periodically as long as I live. I recently took an 8 hour drive and had 4 of the disks it in my CD player and my 9 year old son loved them. I turned it off a few times to see if he was paying attention and he asked that I put it back on instead of his own music CD. At the end of every section my son and I talked about what the section meant. I found the CD very helpful for me but I am absolutely blown away that my 9 year old son seems to be touched by it as well. He loved the stories. My family has been happier and calmer as a result of this CD. This was the best purchase I have made. I loved how to win friends but this CD was much better for me since worry is a major problem in my life. If you are fighting worry, buy this book or CD. It is money well spent.

Summary: Here you can find the most basic steps for happiness
Review: This book contains not only the steps for a worry-free living : when applying its techniques and principles inyour day-to-day, you start to notice that you are a new person, with much more capacity, and the results of your acting became surprisingly better. It's probable that if you learn and apply correctly what Dale Carnegie wrote many years ago, you will solve very old problems, those very complex problems that you had already given up(ex. relationships with people in family and work, general organization of your life, bad memory, backwardness, etc.). You will be able to do what you believed was an unchangable weakness of yourself, and this will increase your self-confidence.You may ask how can a book be so miraculous. The answer is : this book is based in the toughts of the most wise men of all times, including Jesus Crist, Willian James, Benjamin Franklin, Thoma Edison, and many others, together with the real experiences that Dale Carnegie made in his "lab of how to stop worrying". Thus, in spite of not solving all the problems of our lives, this book certainly contains precepts that every person should know, and is an obligatory reading for those who are not completely happy with their lives.

Summary: If the principles are so obvious...
Review: ...why doesn't everyone following them? Because that's the biggest knock I've heard regarding this book. Some people are reading each chapter and coming away saying "well that's obvious." Folks, there isn't anything groundbreaking about this book. There isn't some type of genius method of instantly transforming your life around. It was written decades ago but the solid principles still apply today. For example, if you want to add years to your life, take a nap for an hour each day. Carnegie is then going to tell you exactly who did this and how it helped them transform their life. Read this book once, then twice, then a third time and start living these principles. They are simple but effective and they will, as the title implies, help you start living your life.
