Lessons from How to Win Friends and Influence People:

1. Be genuinely interested in other people

This is the most important lesson in the book. If you
want to win friends and influence people, you need to be
genuinely interested in them. This means listening to
them, understanding their point of view, and showing that
you care about them.

2. Smile
A smile is a powerful tool that can help you connect with
people and make them feel good. When you smile, you
are sending a message that you are friendly and
approachable.

3. Remember names
People love to hear their own names, so make an effort to
remember the names of the people you meet. This shows
that you are paying attention to them and that you care
about them.

4. Be a good listener
One of the best ways to show that you are interested in
someone is to be a good listener. This means paying
attention to what they are saying, asking questions, and
not interrupting.

5. Avoid arguments
Arguments are a surefire way to alienate people. If you
disagree with someone, try to find a way to agree to
disagree. This shows that you are respectful of their
opinion, even if you don't agree with it.

These are just five of the many lessons that can be

learned from How to Win Friends and Influence People.
By following these lessons, you can start to build stronger
relationships with the people around you

1. COPY THE BEST IDEAS

A wise man ought always to follow the paths beaten by

great men and to imitate those who have been supreme
so that if his ability does not equal theirs, at least he will
savor it.
—Niccolò Machiavelli

2. READ

When Pabrai discovers a subject that fascinates him, he

attacks it with obsessive fervor. In Buffett’s case, the
available resources seemed limitless, including decades
of letters to Berkshire’s shareholders and seminal books
such as Roger Lowenstein’s Buffett: The Making of an
American Capitalist. Pabrai devoured it all. He also began
to make a pilgrimage each year to Omaha for Berkshire’s
annual meeting, showing up without fail for more than
twenty years.

Eventually, Pabrai develops a personal relationship with

Buffett. Through Buffett, he’d also become friends with
Munger, who invites him for meals at his home in Los
Angeles and games of the bridge at his club. But in those
early days, Pabrai’s knowledge came entirely from
reading. And the more he read, the more convinced he
became that Buffett, with Munger’s help, had laid out “the
laws of investing,” which are as “fundamental as the
laws of physics.”

3. PATIENCE

“The number one skill in investing is patience—extreme

patience.” Prabai

4. SAY NO TO MANY THINGS, AND SAY YES TO A FEW

THAT YOU CAN TRULY SUCCEED IN

“The difference between successful people and really

successful people is that really successful people say no
to almost everything.” Warren Buffett. Pabrai once said
“On my gravestone, I want them to write, ‘He loved to play
games, especially games he knew he could win.’

5. BE DIFFERENT

It is impossible to produce superior performance unless

you do something different from the majority.
—Sir John Templeton

6. BEWARE OF YOUR IGNORANCE

You may be well-read, but there are areas that you are
ignorant about. The deeper you go, the narrower you
become. Remain conscious of your ignorance. Remain
conscious of the areas you have no expertise. You don’t
know everything.

7. YOU NEED A COMBINATION TO SUCCEED

“Look, luck is not enough. But equally, intelligence is not

enough, hard work is not enough, and perseverance is not
necessarily enough. You need some combination of all
four. We all know intelligent people who worked hard but
didn’t get lucky.”

8. AVOID HERD MINDSET

“Individually, we’re smart,” says Wojcik. “Collectively,

we’re stupid.”

9. BE LIKE WATER

“To be strong, you have to be like water: if there are no

obstacles, it flows; if there is an obstacle, it stops; if a
dam is broken, then it flows further; if a vessel is square,
then it has a square form; if a vessel is round, then it has
a round form. Because it is so soft and flexible, it is the
most necessary and the strongest thing.” Lao-Tzu

10. SIMPLIFY

Our life is frittered away by detail.… Simplify, simplify.

—Henry David Thoreau
