The thing is this: I wasn't like this when I was younger. Many people thought that I have this innate gift to network but no I had to work hard for it.

I could still remember vividly when I was a polytechnic student, I was a rather shy person. In fact, I wasn't good at socializing with my classmates. There was once when I felt I was kind of like the weird kid. It took me a while to understand how to network with others all thanks to my buddy, Ken for gifting me this amazing book called How To Win Friends & Influence People by Dale Carnegie. It was the 1st book that I've managed to devour multiple times and practice. It also allows me to "perfect" the art of networking.

Fast forward to 2022, I'm truly grateful for being known as The Celebrity Whisperer because of my popular podcast called The Raygacy Show. This is where I pick the brains of the best entrepreneurs around the world such as Gary Vaynerchuk , Grant Cardone , Steve Sims and etc to find out from them what are some of the simple and effective steps that millennials can take to experience success in the swiftest and most effective way possible.

How to Win Friends and Influence People is one of the first best-selling self-help books ever published. Written by Dale Carnegie and first published in 1936, it has sold over 30 million copies worldwide and went on to be named #19 on Time Magazine’s list of 100 most influential books in 2011.

Time-tested advice in this book has carried thousands of now-famous people up the ladder of success in their business and personal lives.

What you can learn from this book:

*Three fundamental techniques in handling people

* The six ways to make people like you

* The twelve ways to win people to your way of thinking

* The six ways to make people like you

* The twelve ways to win people to your way of thinking

* The nine ways to change people without arousing resentment

As you can see, most of the advice from How to Win Friends and Influence People is still relevant in this day and age. The only thing you need to watch out for is that you don't start trying to please everyone.?In reality, most people dislike it when you make an excessive effort to win them over. Others will find it uncomfortable.
