A common-sense approach to achieving
success in one's life offers workable,
step-by-step methods and positive
visualization techniques to help readers

This book is not just another
self-help, motivation tool of

success. The Slight Edge
simply shows you how to create
powerful results from the simple
daily activities of your life, by
using tools that are already

Blink is about the first two
seconds of looking--the
decisive glance that knows in
an instant. Gladwell, the
best-selling author of The
Tipping Point, campaigns for
snap judgments and mind
reading with a gift for
translating research into
splendid storytelling.
Your personal plan to find balance, discover
your passion, and step into greatness.
In The Brand You50, Peters sees a
new kind of corporate citizen who
believes that surviving means not
blending in but standing out. He
believes that "90+ percent of White
Collar Jobs will be totally
reinvented/reconceived in the next
decade" and that job security means
developing marketable skills, making
yourself distinct and memorable, and
developing your network ability.
Financial success, Carnegie believed, is due 15 percent to professional knowledge and
85 percent to "the ability to express ideas, to assume leadership, and to arouse
enthusiasm among people." He teaches these skills through underlying principles of
dealing with people so that they feel important and appreciated. He also emphasizes
fundamental techniques for handling people without making them feel manipulated.
Carnegie says you can make someone want to do what you want them to by seeing the
situation from the other person's point of view and "arousing in the other person an eager
want." You learn how to make people like you, win people over to your way of thinking, and
change people without causing offense or arousing resentment. For instance, "let the
other person feel that the idea is his or hers," and "talk about your own mistakes before
criticizing the other person." Carnegie illustrates his points with anecdotes of historical
figures, leaders of the business world, and everyday folks. --Joan Price
