Reader comments
Just like Carnegie said, "To succeed, the necessary conditions are to use your desire to increase your enthusiasm, use your perseverance to smooth the mountains, and at the same time believe that you will succeed." I particularly like this sentence in the book. It makes me understand the importance of persistence and self-confidence. Many of the cases in the book are also very interesting and worth reading.
