1、A Simple Way to Make A Good First Impression
written by Dale Carnegie
At a dinner party in New York, one of the guests, a woman who had inherited money, was eager to make a pleasing impression on everyone. She had squandered a modest fortune on sables, diamonds and pearls. But she hadn't done anything whatever about her face. It radiated sourness and selfishness. She didn't realize what everyone knows: namely, that the expression one wears on one's face is far more important than the clothes one wears on one's back.
Charles Schwab told me his smile had been worth a million dollars. And he was probably understanding the truth. For Schwab's personality, his charms, his ability to make people like him, were almost wholly responsible for his extraordinary success; and one of the most delightful factors in his personality was his captivating smile.
Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, "I like you, you make me happy. I'm glad to see you." That is why dogs make such a hit. They are so glad to see us that they almost jump out of their skins. So, naturally, we are glad to see them.
A baby's smile has the same effect. Have you ever been in a doctor's waiting room and looked around at all the glum faces waiting impatiently to be seen? Dr. Stephen K. Sproul, a veterinarian in Raytown, Missouri, told of a typical spring day when his waiting room was full of clients waiting to have their pets inoculated. No one was talking to anyone else, and all were probably thinking of a dozen other things they would rather to be doing than "wasting time" sitting in that office. He told one of our classes:
"There were six or seven clients waiting when a young woman came in with a nine-month-old baby and a kitten. As luck would have it, she sat down next to a gentleman who was more than a little distraught about the long wait for service. The next thing he knew, the baby just looked up at him with that great big smile that is so characteristic of babies. What did that gentleman do?
"Just what you and I would do, of course; he smiled back at the baby. Soon he struck up a conversation with the woman about her baby and his grandchildren, and soon the entire reception room joined in, and the boredom and tension were converted into a pleasant and enjoyable experience."
An insincere grin? That doesn't fool anybody. We know it is mechanical and we resent it. I am talking about a real smile, a heartwarming smile, a smile that comes from within, the kind of smile that will bring a good price in the marketplace.
Professor James V. McConnell, a psychologist at the University of Michigan, expressed his feelings about a smile. "People who smile," he said, "tend to manage teach and sell more effectively, and to raise happier children. There's far more information in a smile than a frown. That's why encouragement is a much more effective teaching device than punishment."
The employment manager of a large New York department store told me she would rather hire a sales clerk who hadn't finished grade school, if he or she has a pleasant smile, than to hire a doctor of philosophy with a somber face.
The effect of a smile is powerful--even when it is unseen. Telephone companies throughout the United States have a program called "phone power" which is offered to employees who use the telephone for selling their services or products. In this program they suggest that you smile when talking on the phone. Your "smile" comes through in your voice.
The chairman of the board of directors of one of the largest rubber companies in the United States told me that, according to his observations, people rarely succeed at anything unless they have fun doing it. This industrial leader doesn't put much faith in the old adage that hard work alone is the magic key that will unlock the door to our desires, " I have known people," he said, " The one who succeeded because they had rip-roaring good time conducting their business. Later, I saw those people changed as the fun became weak. The business had grown dull, they lost all joy in it, and they failed."
You must have a good time meeting poeple if you expect them to have a good time meeting you.
心靈的語(yǔ)言
戴爾·卡耐基 文
在紐約舉行的一個(gè)宴會(huì)上,有一位得到大筆遺產(chǎn)的女賓客迫切想要給每個(gè)人留下一個(gè)好印象。她不惜重金買(mǎi)來(lái)貂皮、鉆石和珍珠,但是在自己的臉上卻沒(méi)下任何功夫——一臉的尖酸刻薄、自私自利。她沒(méi)有意識(shí)到一個(gè)眾所周知的道理:一個(gè)人的面部表情要比身上的衣服重要得多。
史考伯對(duì)我說(shuō),他的笑容值一百萬(wàn)美元,他也許是在有意淡化這一事實(shí)。史考伯的個(gè)性和魅力以及讓人喜歡他的能力幾乎是他取得非凡成就的全部原因所在。并且他個(gè)性中最令人愉快的因素之一就是他那迷人的微笑。
行動(dòng)比語(yǔ)言更有力。一個(gè)微笑表達(dá)的是:“我喜歡你,你讓我感到很開(kāi)心,我非常高興見(jiàn)到你。”這就是小狗得寵的原因。小狗見(jiàn)到我們會(huì)表現(xiàn)出欣喜若狂的高興勁兒,所以,我們見(jiàn)到小狗自然也感覺(jué)很開(kāi)心。
嬰兒的微笑也要同樣的效果。你曾經(jīng)在醫(yī)生的候診室里留意過(guò)那些等待看病的陰郁面孔嗎?密蘇里州雷頓市的`獸醫(yī)史蒂芬.史波爾告訴過(guò)我一件事:在某年的一個(gè)春天,他的候診室里排滿(mǎn)了前來(lái)給寵物接種疫苗的人,沒(méi)有人閑聊,他們大概都在想著其他事情,而不是等在候診室里“浪費(fèi)時(shí)間”。他對(duì)我說(shuō):“有六七個(gè)人在等著給他們的寵物接種疫苗時(shí),一個(gè)年輕女人帶著一個(gè)九個(gè)月大的嬰兒和一只小貓走進(jìn)來(lái)。事有巧合,她坐在已經(jīng)等得有些發(fā)狂了的男人身邊。當(dāng)他扭過(guò)頭時(shí),嬰兒正用那天真無(wú)邪的笑容注視著他。那個(gè)男人會(huì)做什么呢?”
“當(dāng)然,他和你我的反應(yīng)一樣,扭過(guò)頭去朝著嬰兒微笑。很快他就和那個(gè)女人攀談起來(lái),聊起了她的孩子和他自己的孫子。不多一會(huì)兒,整個(gè)候診室的人都參與了進(jìn)來(lái),厭倦和緊張變成了快樂(lè)和享受!
那虛假的笑容呢?那是不可能欺騙任何人的。我們都知道那種笑是機(jī)械的,我們厭惡它。我所要談的是真誠(chéng)的、暖人心房的、發(fā)自?xún)?nèi)心的微笑,它是人際關(guān)系中的無(wú)價(jià)之寶。
密歇根大學(xué)的心理學(xué)家詹姆斯·麥克奈爾教授表達(dá)了他對(duì)微笑的看法:“面帶微笑的人們會(huì)在管理、教學(xué)和營(yíng)銷(xiāo)方面卓有成效,也會(huì)培養(yǎng)出心情愉悅的孩子。微笑比蹙眉能更好地傳達(dá)信息。這就是為什么在教育上獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)要比懲罰更有效的原因。”
一位紐約超市的人事經(jīng)理對(duì)我說(shuō),她寧愿聘用一個(gè)沒(méi)有學(xué)歷但有著舒適微笑的人,也不愿意聘用一個(gè)滿(mǎn)面冰霜的哲學(xué)博士。
微笑的力量是巨大的——即使它是無(wú)形的。遍布全美的電話(huà)公司有一個(gè)叫“電話(huà)力量”的項(xiàng)目,就是要求員工用電話(huà)來(lái)銷(xiāo)售他們的服務(wù)和產(chǎn)品。在此項(xiàng)目中,公司建議員工在打電話(huà)時(shí)要面帶微笑。你的“微笑”會(huì)通過(guò)你的聲音傳遞給客戶(hù)。
美國(guó)一家大型橡膠公司的董事長(zhǎng)告訴我,他通過(guò)觀察發(fā)現(xiàn),除非對(duì)自己所做的事有興趣,否則人們很難獲得成功。這位商業(yè)巨頭對(duì)于“努力是通向成功之門(mén)的唯一鑰匙”這句古語(yǔ)并不贊同。他說(shuō):“我所認(rèn)識(shí)的一些人,他們的成功是因?yàn)樽隽俗约焊信d趣的工作。后來(lái),他們對(duì)工作漸漸沒(méi)了興趣,于是生意蕭條了,最終失敗了!
如果你希望他人在見(jiàn)到你時(shí)心情是愉悅的,那你也必須在見(jiàn)到他們時(shí)心情是愉悅的。
【作者簡(jiǎn)介】戴爾·卡耐基(Dale Carnegie,1888-1955年),被譽(yù)為是20世紀(jì)最偉大的心靈導(dǎo)師和成功學(xué)大師,美國(guó)現(xiàn)代成人教育之父,他利用大量普通人不斷努力取得成功的故事,通過(guò)演講和書(shū)喚起無(wú)數(shù)陷入迷惘者的斗志,激勵(lì)他們?nèi)〉幂x煌的成功。其主要代表作有:《溝通的藝術(shù)》、《人性的弱點(diǎn)》、《人性的優(yōu)點(diǎn)》、《美好的人生》、《快樂(lè)的人生》、《偉大的人物》和《人性的光輝》。這些書(shū)出版之后,立即風(fēng)靡全球,先后被譯成幾十種文字,被譽(yù)為“人類(lèi)出版史上的奇跡”。
2、人性的弱點(diǎn)
Author:James Allen
Men do not attract that which they want,but that which they are.Their whims,fancies and ambitions are thwarted at every step ,but their inmost thoughts and desires are fed with their own food,be it foul or clean. The "divinity that shapes our ends"is in ourselves ;it is our very self.Only himself manacles man:thought and action are the gaolers of fate ---they imprion,beimg noble. Nont what he wishes and prays for does a man get,but what he justly earns. His wishes and prayers are only gratified and answered when they harmonize whith his thoughts and actions.
In the light of this truth ,what,then,is the meaning of"fighting against circumstances?"It means that a man is continually revolting against an effect without,while all the time he is niurishing and preserving its cause in his heart.That cause may take form of a conscious vice or an unconscious weakness;but whatever it is,it stubbornly retards the efforts of its possessor,and thus calls aloud for remedy .
Men are anxious to improve their circumstances,but are unwilling to improve themselves;they therefore remain bound The man who does not shrink from self-crucifixion can never fail to accomplish the object upon which his heart is set This is as true of earthly as of heavenly things.Even the man whose sole object is to acquire wealth must be prepared to make great personal sacrifices before he can accomplish his object ;and how much more so he who would realize a strong and well-poised life?
Here is a man who is wretchedly poor.He is extremely anxious that his surroundings and home comforts should be improved ,yet all the time he shirks his work,and considers he is justified in trying to deceive his employer on the ground of the insufficiency of his wages.Such a man does not understand the simplest rudiments of those principles which are the basis of true prosperity, and is not only totally unfitted to rise out of his wrechedness by dwelling in ,and acting out, indolent, deceptive,and unmanly thoughts.
Here is a rich man who is the victim of a painful and persistent disease as the result of gluttony.He is willing to give large sums of money to get rid of it,but he will not sacrifice his gluttonous desires.He wants to gratify his taste for rich and unnatural viands and have his health as well.Such a man is totally unfit to have health,because he has not yet learned the first principles of a healthy life.
Here is an employer of labor who adopts crooked measures to avoid paying the regulation wage,and,in the hope of marking large profits,reduces the wages of his workpeople.Such a man is altogether unfitted for prosperity.and when he finds himself bankrupt,both as regards reputation and riches,he blames circumstances,not knowing that he is the sole author of his condition.
I have introduced these three cases merely as illustrative of the truth that man is the causer(though nearly always is unconsciously)of his circumstances.
3、為人父母
shouting to make your children obey is like using the horn to steer your car, and you get about the same results。
to be in your children’s memories tomorrow, you have to be in their lives today。
the smartest advice on raising children is to enjoy them while they are still on your side。
the best way to keep kids at home is to give it a loving atmosphere and hide the keys to the car。
the right temperature in a home is maintained by warm hearts, not by hot heads。
parents: people who bare infants, bore teenagers, and board newlyweds。
the joy of motherhood : what a woman experiences when all the children are finally in bed。
life’s garden age is when the kids are too old to need baby-sitters and too young to borrow the family car。
grandparents are similar to a piece of string-handy to have around and easily wrapped around the fingers of grandchildren。
a child outgrows your lap, but never outgrows your heart。
god gave you two ears and one mouth…so you should listen twice as much as you talk。
there are three ways to get something done: do it yourself, hire someone to do it, or forbid your children to do it。
adolescence is the age when children try to bring up their parents。
cleaning your house while your kids are at home is like trying to shovel the driveway during a snowstorm。
oh, to be only half as wonderful as my child thought i was when he was small, and half an stupid as my teenager now thinks i am。
there are only two things a child will share willingly: communicable diseases and his mother’s age。
money isn’t everything , but it sure keeps the kids in touch。
adolescence is the age at which children stop asking questions because they know all the answers。
an alarm clock is a device for awakening people who don’t have small children。
no wonder kids are confused today。 half the adults tell them to find themselves; the other half tell them to get lost。
people hardest to convince that it’s time for retirement are children at bedtime。
kids really brighten a household; they never turn off any lights。
