By reading the book “ How to Win Friends & Influence People” by Dale Carnegie” I got to know that the biggest mistke we being the human being do is we always think about ourselves. I realized that whenever we are talking to our friends we are always trying to tlk about how we feel, how are the things going on in our lives, how is our university going, what problems we are facing these days and list goes on and on.

But we never think about how our friends are feeling, what they want to tell us or what is going on in their life, he gave the examples of several famous personlaities like Napoleon, Alfred Adler, Mr. Thurston etc and shared their way of thinking which tells us to ask questions to our fellows to show them how interested we are in their lives so we can make friends for life.

I also tried to ask questions to my family and friends and asked about their daily routine, their school life, asked my parents about their work life and I felt how passionately they responded me and I wondered that why I had never asked them bout their selves before. Inshort, it was a gret learning experience.
