Carnegie 202 01:06:56,958 --> 01:06:58,958 ended chapter one of part two, 203 01:06:58,958 --> 01:07:01,291 giving us his first principle, which is 204 01:07:01,291 --> 01:07:02,541 "Become genuinely 205 01:07:02,541 --> 01:07:04,041 interested in other people, 206 01:07:04,541 --> 01:07:07,125 and you will be welcome anywhere." So 207 01:07:07,125 --> 01:07:08,458 today, we start chapter two, 208 01:07:08,791 --> 01:07:10,583 part two, and it's entitled 209 01:07:10,791 --> 01:07:12,875 "A Simple Way to Make a Good First 210 01:07:12,875 --> 01:07:15,083 Impression." Carnegie 211 01:07:15,083 --> 01:07:16,750 begins this chapter with a quick 212 01:07:16,750 --> 01:07:18,916 anecdote about a woman at a dinner party 213 01:07:18,916 --> 01:07:20,416 who had inherited a large 214 01:07:20,416 --> 01:07:22,375 sum of money. And clearly, 215 01:07:22,625 --> 01:07:24,000 she had spent a lot of the money on 216 01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:25,208 making sure she looked 217 01:07:25,208 --> 01:07:27,375 the part. But Carnegie says, 218 01:07:27,708 --> 01:07:29,250 even though she was dressed to the nines, 219 01:07:29,625 --> 01:07:30,250 she didn't do anything 220 01:07:30,250 --> 01:07:31,541 to dress up the expression 221 01:07:31,541 --> 01:07:35,500 on her face, which "radiated sourness and 222 01:07:35,500 --> 01:07:37,541 selfishness." And to 223 01:07:37,541 --> 01:07:39,625 this, Carnegie says, "The 224 01:07:39,625 --> 01:07:42,458 expression one wears on one's face is far 225 01:07:42,458 --> 01:07:43,875 more important than the 226 01:07:43,875 --> 01:07:45,791 clothes one wears on one's back." 227 01:07:47,166 --> 01:07:48,916 That's a lot of ones, but it's true. 228 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:51,708 Here, Carnegie mentions his old friend 229 01:07:51,708 --> 01:07:52,791 again, Charles Schwab. 230 01:07:53,333 --> 01:07:55,083 You remember Schwab's success was 231 01:07:55,083 --> 01:07:57,500 partially due to his ability to arouse 232 01:07:57,500 --> 01:07:58,791 enthusiasm in people 233 01:07:59,250 --> 01:08:00,583 by treating them with respect and 234 01:08:00,583 --> 01:08:02,750 appreciation. Well, apparently 235 01:08:02,750 --> 01:08:04,250 Schwab had another seek to his 236 01:08:04,250 --> 01:08:07,333 success, and it was simply his smile. He 237 01:08:07,333 --> 01:08:08,458 was told he had a million 238 01:08:08,458 --> 01:08:10,541 dollar smile. Perhaps it had 239 01:08:10,541 --> 01:08:11,958 something to do with his million dollar 240 01:08:11,958 --> 01:08:13,833 salary, but it was this 241 01:08:13,833 --> 01:08:15,541 smile along with his personality, 242 01:08:16,083 --> 01:08:18,333 his charm, and his ability to make people 243 01:08:18,333 --> 01:08:19,791 like him that were also 244 01:08:19,791 --> 01:08:21,458 responsible for his extraordinary 245 01:08:21,500 --> 01:08:24,625 success. And it's this first impression 246 01:08:24,625 --> 01:08:26,041 of a simple smile that 247 01:08:26,041 --> 01:08:28,500 Carnegie says, "A smile says, 248 01:08:28,750 --> 01:08:31,458 I like you. You make me happy. I am glad 249 01:08:31,458 --> 01:08:33,916 to see you." And it's true. 250 01:08:34,333 --> 01:08:35,708 Something as small as a smile 251 01:08:35,750 --> 01:08:38,000 goes a long way in this world. Try 252 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:39,708 smiling at someone, and I 253 01:08:39,708 --> 01:08:41,041 bet you they'll smile back. 254 01:08:41,916 --> 01:08:43,750 Carnegie likens this back to the example 255 01:08:43,750 --> 01:08:45,333 of dogs being so happy to 256 01:08:45,333 --> 01:08:46,291 see as that they practically 257 01:08:46,291 --> 01:08:48,333 jump out of their skin. And that's one 258 01:08:48,333 --> 01:08:49,416 reason we love our furry 259 01:08:49,416 --> 01:08:50,791 friends, because they make us feel 260 01:08:50,791 --> 01:08:52,666 good by greeting us with such love and 261 01:08:52,666 --> 01:08:54,666 affection. And it's the same 262 01:08:54,666 --> 01:08:56,375 logic that Carnegie calls on 263 01:08:56,375 --> 01:08:58,291 here that we can implement with a simple 264 01:08:58,291 --> 01:09:00,458 smile. Carnegie says, "A 265 01:09:00,458 --> 01:09:01,958 baby's smile has the same effect. 266 01:09:02,500 --> 01:09:04,500 It lightens us. It actually triggers a 267 01:09:04,500 --> 01:09:05,416 release of dopamine 268 01:09:05,416 --> 01:09:06,458 in the mother's brain, 269 01:09:06,833 --> 01:09:09,041 and maybe not a surprise here, but a 270 01:09:09,041 --> 01:09:10,416 frown does not have the same effect." 271 01:09:11,250 --> 01:09:12,666 Also, I think we've all 272 01:09:12,666 --> 01:09:14,333 heard of the studies that say other 273 01:09:14,333 --> 01:09:15,541 people form their first 274 01:09:15,541 --> 01:09:17,375 impression of you within the first 275 01:09:17,375 --> 01:09:19,875 seven seconds of meeting you. And smiling 276 01:09:19,875 --> 01:09:21,291 at them sounds like a pretty 277 01:09:21,291 --> 01:09:23,250 good start. Again, Carnegie 278 01:09:23,250 --> 01:09:25,000 is quick to point out here that he's not 279 01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:27,500 talking about insincerity. He 280 01:09:27,500 --> 01:09:30,750 says, "An insincere grin? No, 281 01:09:30,875 --> 01:09:33,208 that doesn't fool anybody. We know it's 282 01:09:33,208 --> 01:09:34,791 mechanical, and we resent 283 01:09:34,791 --> 01:09:37,500 it." Carnegie is talking about, 284 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:41,291 "A real smile, a heartwarming smile, a 285 01:09:41,291 --> 01:09:42,458 smile that comes from 286 01:09:42,458 --> 01:09:45,375 within." Maybe it's the kind of smile 287 01:09:45,375 --> 01:09:47,625 that we reserve for our family, or our 288 01:09:47,625 --> 01:09:49,208 best friends, or only 289 01:09:49,208 --> 01:09:50,583 when the right mood hits us. 290 01:09:50,916 --> 01:09:52,750 But we shouldn't just reserve it for 291 01:09:52,750 --> 01:09:54,958 those we're familiar with. Carnegie 292 01:09:54,958 --> 01:09:56,208 quotes Professor McConnell, 293 01:09:56,500 --> 01:09:58,083 a psychologist from the University of 294 01:09:58,083 --> 01:09:59,666 Michigan, who said this 295 01:09:59,666 --> 01:10:02,416 about a smile, "People who smile 296 01:10:02,458 --> 01:10:05,166 tend to manage, teach, and sell more 297 01:10:05,166 --> 01:10:07,250 effectively, and to raise happier 298 01:10:07,250 --> 01:10:09,166 children. There's far more 299 01:10:09,166 --> 01:10:12,125 information in a smile than in a frown. 300 01:10:12,791 --> 01:10:14,666 That's why encouragement is a 301 01:10:14,666 --> 01:10:15,875 much more effective teaching 302 01:10:15,875 --> 01:10:19,625 device than punishment." And that's why a 303 01:10:19,625 --> 01:10:20,666 department store manager 304 01:10:20,666 --> 01:10:22,458 told Carnegie that she'd 305 01:10:22,708 --> 01:10:25,041 "happily rather hire someone with a nice 306 01:10:25,041 --> 01:10:26,500 smile with no education 307 01:10:26,500 --> 01:10:28,583 than hire a doctorate with a 308 01:10:28,583 --> 01:10:31,166 somber face." I'll just interject here 309 01:10:31,166 --> 01:10:32,791 briefly that I do have a 310 01:10:32,791 --> 01:10:34,541 t-shirt that my kids gave me 311 01:10:34,541 --> 01:10:37,541 that reads, "I'm not mad. This is just my 312 01:10:37,541 --> 01:10:39,875 face." The point being, you 313 01:10:39,875 --> 01:10:41,083 don't need to be blessed with 314 01:10:41,083 --> 01:10:43,208 a million dollar smile like Schwab or 315 01:10:43,208 --> 01:10:44,333 Denzel Washington. 316 01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:46,916 Anyone's smile, including yours, 317 01:10:46,958 --> 01:10:48,916 will elicit the same effect that Carnegie 318 01:10:48,916 --> 01:10:50,083 is speaking about here. 319 01:10:51,125 --> 01:10:52,708 Okay, that's a great stopping 320 01:10:52,708 --> 01:10:54,916 point for today.

Tomorrow, Carnegie will dig deeper 324 01:11:01,083 --> 01:11:03,208 into just how powerful the simple, 325 01:11:03,666 --> 01:11:05,291 sincere smile can be. 326 01:11:05,541 --> 01:11:07,541 So be sure to come back as we dive deeper 327 01:11:07,541 --> 01:11:09,625 into the second chapter of part two. 328 01:11:10,375 --> 01:11:12,166 Okay, I hope your day 329 01:11:12,250 --> 01:11:14,666 is off to a great start.
