You'd do better to get the 2 books this book was extracted fromAug 14, 2005
By David W "How to Enjoy Your Life and Your Job" was created by taking excerpts from "How to Win Friends and Influence People" and "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living" - both excellent books. Buy those books separately or buy "Dale Carnegies Lifetime Plan for Success : The Great Bestselling Works Complete In One Volume" (ISBN: 1578660394) which contains both complete books. This way you get Carnegie's work in its complete form. I consider Carnegie to be one of the best self-help authors of all time, and that is reflected in these writings. Carnegie's work will help you improve your attitude, relationships, choices, and the results you achieve in life if you are willing to put his advice into practice. I only gave this book 3 stars because it is just a rehash of Carnegie's other books, with material cut out.

Time won't change these truthsAug 11, 2001
By Sheri O. Zampelli
"Author & Podcaster"
My copy of this book is yellowed, tattered and over 30 years old. Nonetheless, I can open to any page and find a bit of timeless wisdom and truth. I've worked in difficult situations with groups and individuals for the past ten years. I've worked with, convicts, hardcore addicts and the mentally ill. I've also worked with highly educated, wealthy, distinguished individuals. I'm here to tell you that the techniques in this book will work with all people.No one likes to be criticized or condemned. We all want to save face and feel important. This book teaches you the power of humility and the art of getting what you want while working cooperatively and harmoniously with others. If you find yourself struggling at your current job or if you're in conflict with your co-workers or employees, I'd recommend trying some of the techniques and principles outlined in this book.

Easy to read and effectiveDec 02, 1999
When I was about 15 years old I read the arabic translation of "How to win friends". This book, "How to enjoy yor life", is a selection of chapters from the abovementioned book and from "How to stop worrying and start living". Dale Carnegie's style is very simple and he conveys a deep understanding of human nature. The book was easy to read and hosted a large number of ideas on how to lead a more effective life; none of the ideas are revolutionary, they are simply common sense practices that we fail to implement on a daily basis.

Product Description Was InadequateMay 13, 2007
By Boyd M. Murray Dale Carnegie is an amazing author and the wisdom in this book is life-changing.
The real problem with this book is that the product description failed to mention that it is a **COMPILATION** of excerpts from 2 other books:
"How to Stop Worrying and Start Living", and
"How to Win Friends and Influence People".
I already had those two books and, so, wasted my money by buying this book.

Enjoy Life and your JobJun 16, 2003
By Kosovar I always was a good man, after reading this book I became a better man, and I shall be eternally grateful to Dale Carnegie for his great work on this book. This book is a life changer, and also one of the best examples that we never know enough and that we should keep learning something new in each day of our lives. It mentions the originality and how important it is to be ourselves rather than trying to be someone which we aren't and can't be. It covers our 'boredom' we get at work and it shows us the way how to turn it into a happiness.So easy that is, If I only knew that before. And this book of course it is extremely rich by powerful sayings and true life stories from people of all ages. YOU MUST READ THIS BOOK and after you do YOU'LL WELCOME DAILY PROBLEMS with all your heart because you'll know by then, how to make them dissapear - within seconds.
