Dale Carnegie's best-known work focused on basic, essential principles for dealing with people successfully. His common-sense advice included never criticising, complaining about or condemning another person, giving sincere appreciation to others, and stimulating in others a specific desire, in order to motivate them.

Such advice formed the basis of the best-selling book for which Carnegie has become famous, How to Win Friends and Influence People (1936). In this text, Carnegie's simple rules on how to achieve success with people are illustrated from his own and others' experiences, and also with historical stories about people such as Roosevelt and Lincoln. Although he is mainly known for this particular book, Carnegie's career began with training people to become speakers and writing various other books. He produced some of the earliest self- improvement manuals, and these are still popular today.

Dale Carnegie's Life He came from a poor, farming background and had to struggle through college. Looking for a way to distinguish himself, he began to enter speaking contests and, despite a shaky start, was soon winning every contest he entered. On leaving college, Carnegie worked for some time as a salesman and as an actor. He also ran his own business. Eventually, he decided to write novels and support himself by teaching at night.

Carnegie's career: His first courses on public speaking for businessmen were run purely on a commission basis, as he was initially refused any pay. The courses did well, however, and their popularity made Dale Carnegie a great success. He went on to write many popular books and founded the Dale Carnegie Institute of Effective Speaking and Human Relations.

Dale Carnegie's Speech on the Road to Success : To summarize what he have said: aim for the highest; never enter a bar room; do not touch liquor, or if at all only at meals; never speculate; never indorse beyond your surplus cash fund; make the firm’s interest yours; break orders always to save owners; concentrate; put all your eggs in one basket, and watch that basket; expenditure always within revenue; lastly, be not impatient, for as Emerson says, “No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourselves.”

Becoming a good public speaker Some of the advice given by Dale Carnegie at the start of his career, when he trained and wrote to help people to make speeches in public, is summarised below. Carnegie on speech preparation from the beginning, Carnegie suggested, you should generate an enthusiasm within yourself for public speaking, whether you have a financial or a social goal in view. Prepare as much as possible for the speech, and have it ready well in advance. Begin planning as soon as you can, and look for a topic that you know a lot about. Always try to use your own ideas, and bring the topic of your talk into conversation, so that you can explore any interesting stories on the subject that others may be able to tell you. Think about your talk at every possible opportunity, and research it thoroughly, using libraries and other sources and collecting more material than you will need.

Do not memorise the talk word-for-word, as you will then be more likely to forget it, and it would also lose much effectiveness. While having plenty of material prepared, you should not try to say too much in the talk itself. Your material needs to be structured simply, so that you can talk as if you were in ordinary conversation. Most people are nervous about talking in public. If you try to act bravely and pretend that you feel more confident than you really do, you will often actually gain in confidence. Practice will help you to feel more certain of yourself, and it is a good idea to rehearse your speech as much as possible, maybe in front of the mirror, or with family and friends as an audience
