So I finally broke down and started reading How to Win Friends and Influence People. Parts of it are actually good; others are definitely not. (I just finished up a chapter on the importance of smiling.) The more I read this, the more I realize: I don’t want to win friends and influence people—I just want to get shit done. I realize this means that I will never be paid as well as people who smile all the time. But I made this poster in an hour and a half. Beat that, Smiley.
I don’t want to win friends and influence people—I just want to get shit done.
I declare this best motivation quote ever. In the history of ever.
And great poster- nicely done!
Yes, good quote indeed.
I’ve read this book, I think. Dale Carnegie, right? I forgot about the smiling chapter. I’ve actually had someone tell me I smile too much, so I guess that’s not a problem for me. The thing is, I’m not smiling because I want to win friends, it’s just that the voices in my head are so amusing that I can’t help but smile sometimes.
This reminds me of a magazine that I think you’d like. It’s called Stop Smiling. Check it out, yo: http://www.stopsmilingonline.com/
