The first and second principle in Dale Carnegie’s book, How to Win Friends and Influence People, are:
- Don’t Criticize, Condemn, or Complain.
- Give honest and sincere appreciation.
Dale writes, the deepest principle in human nature is the craving to be appreciated.
To never criticize, condemn or complain about others or situations, you’ll need to be intentional in finding the opposite every single day:
- The opposite of criticize is praise
- The opposite of condemn is acquit
- The opposite of complain is rejoice
