How To Win Friends And Influence PeopleHow To Win Friends And Influence People Full chapter Introduction A practical work on interpersonal relations, this book takes an in-depth look at human nature and taps into the hidden weaknesses of humanity. Through reading this book, one can get to know more about themselves and make further self-improvements. This book became a worldwide bestseller immediately after its debut. It has been translated into almost every major language in the world within decades of its release. It's hailed as the bible of social skills. In 2011, it was number 19 on Time Magazine's list of the 100 most influential books. Overview | Chapter 1Hi, welcome to Bookey. Today we'll unlock the book How to Win Friends and Influence People. Many of us are familiar with or have even read this book. It has continued to gain popularity and receive acclaim from readers around the world. It has also been published in many editions. Data shows that this book has sold tens of millions of copies worldwide, a truly remarkable number in the history of publication. It provides people with guidelines for dealing with others, in addition to sharing many ideas about how to live a happy life. Numerous people have benefited from it. Ever since Carnegie revealed the secret to harmonious relationships to many people around the world, other books on the subject of interpersonal relationships have emerged. Due to his enormous influence, Carnegie has been praised as one of the greatest experts in self-help and interpersonal relationships. It may be hard to imagine that, while Carnegie is now a revered mentor in the self-help industry, he used to suffer a lot from his inability to effectively deal with people. Carnegie was not born a genius of social skills. He learned from his own personal experiences and turned them into assets. Carnegie was born in the 1880s in a small town in Missouri. His family was poor, so he was always hungry and cold. Due to malnutrition, little Carnegie was rather skinny and short, making his ears, which were disproportionately big compared to his head, seemed even larger. Because of his big ears, little Carnegie was often teased by his classmates. One day, he got into a fight with a boy in his class. He said something very mean to the boy, who became so furious that he threatened to cut off Carnegie's ears. Carnegie was terrified. In the next few days, he kept worrying about his ears being cut off. He was even too scared to fall asleep, fearing that his ears would be cut off in his dreams. But this was not his only concern. When he was a kid, Carnegie would dwell on anxieties to the point of tears. He worried about so many absurd things, for example, being buried alive like a seed, getting killed by a lightning strike, or going to hell after dying. He also worried that no girl would ever want to marry him, or that he would be kidnapped by aliens. Later on, Carnegie realized that most people's worries were not necessary, because there was a 99% chance that they wouldn't happen. After a long period of anxiety and lack of confidence when growing up, he attended the State Teachers' College in Warrensburgh, Missouri. Here, he took an interest in debating, and became very fond of it. So, he attended debates and public speaking competitions frequently, painstakingly honing his speaking skills. He won the majority of contests in which he participated, and gained great confidence from giving speeches. Gradually, he realized that this could be his life-long career. Afterward, Carnegie started to give inspirational speeches around the world. He wrote many self-help books, like How to Win Friends and...

Our guest for today's podcast is Scott Chan, Deputy Chief Investment Officer of the California State Teachers' Retirement System (better known as CalSTRS).  CalSTRS is the largest teachers' retirement system and second largest public pension fund in the United States.  A world-class financial services institution and state agency, CalSTRS is known for its unique organizational culture which emphasizes customer service, leadership and respect for its members and colleagues.   What a pleasure it was for me and fellow AAAIM Board member, Susan Soh, to hear Scott's background and his path to becoming one of the most powerful people in finance.  As Deputy CIO, Scott oversees CalSTRS' investment division and is responsible for leading a diverse and growing team of over 200 investment professionals. He manages eight critical investment functions including investment strategy and risk, global equities, fixed income, real estate, private equity, risk mitigating strategies, inflation sensitive and sustainable investment and stewardship strategies. What a mouthful…  And, he reports directly into the great Chris Ailman who is highly regarded to be one of the best CIOs in the business.   Direct investing; getting to net zero; embracing diversity, equity and inclusion – you want it, Scott delivers it…  Without further ado, here is our conversation with Scott Chan.

Call me radical, but we're facing leftist radicals so sometimes it behooves us to get aggressive. The law's already on the books. It's long past time to get our education system fixed, as I discussed in the latest episode of America First Report.

In this podcast RCLCO interviews CalSTRS' Investment Director of Sustainable Investment & Stewardship Strategies and Portfolio Manager responsible for residential assets.

In this episode Micah and Nathan dive into why the Left hates free speech and the real reason they don't want someone like Elon Musk buying Twitter.  Also, why the Indiana State Teachers Association has lost all semblance of morality and is ruining public education in our nation.

And also discussed how, back in the 1980's, our teachers would openly smoke cigarettes and sometimes throw a desk or two to get a point across.

Today's topic, boundaries, is extremely important considering the mounting stress teachers are under as the school year resumes in the midst of a global pandemic. Whether you're teaching face-to-face, remotely, or in a hybrid model, the demands are unlike anything I have experienced. The expectations and uncertainty of what the future holds for this school year have not only caused disruptions to work-life balance, but to the physical and mental health of teachers. Aside from health concerns, the technology transition that most schools are undergoing is a source of overwhelm in itself.As I like to say, you are more than a teacher, and you deserve to set limits on how you spend your time outside of school. Setting boundaries will save your career before it starts. But no one can set those boundaries but yourself. How long to stay after school, when to stop responding to emails for the day, the amount of time to spend writing lessons, grading papers, or troubleshooting technology. That's for you to decide. Here are five ways to get started with setting boundaries today.To read my blog post on teacher well-being during the reopening of schools, visit the National Network of State Teachers of the Year (NNSTOY) blog.For more guidance on how to prepare for teaching in a year of unknowns, go to erinsponaugle.com and download your free copy of my ebook The Thrive Guide: Beginning a Teaching Career in Uncertain Times. There's something in there for everyone, but especially if you are starting your teacher journey.

Over the last several weeks in the United States and around the world, we have seen protests, marches, and rallies related to the deaths of people like George Floyd, Ahmaud Arberry, Breonna Taylor, and Dreajson Reed. Race and racism are challenging topics to talk about but we must talk about them - particularly in the context of how we collectively function as a college community. I'm joined today by three other members of the College community to have a dialog about race and racism. It is a conversation that may not be comfortable at times - perhaps for us as we have the conversation and perhaps for you as you listen. I ask only that we all sit in the discomfort and examine why it is uncomfortable for us and consider how we can use that discomfort to grow and move forward. Thanks to my guests: Chris Cathcart Mia Johnson Marcus Kolb The questions from today’s conversation are based on the questions included in the National Network of State Teachers of the Year which has a discussion guide entitled "Courageous Conversations about Race in Schools".  Calls to Action Every episode ends with a Call to Action. I gave you one call to action already at the top of the episode and that is that if anything in today's episode caused you to be uncomfortable to sit with that discomfort, reflect on it and see how you might grow as a result of it. The second call to action - the one I alluded to at the beginning of the episode - is that we want to continue this conversation through a podcast book read of the book "So You Want To Talk About Race?" by Ijeoma Oluo. I will be sharing information on how to join this book read as an active part of the discussion in this afternoon's all college email.  For now, if you do not yet have this book, if you would like to join the conversation - either as a part of the podcast or just simply to read and consider along with us - please purchase a copy of the book.  https://www.amazon.com/You-Want-Talk-About-Race/dp/1580058825   Get In Touch!

What will happen with K-12 education in the fall? Noel Candelaria is president of the Texas State Teachers Assocation.

SB543. Nevada's new funding formula. It is supposed to solve the issue of money being supplanted from the state education budget. (See the video explaining supplanting here.)But not everybody is happy with the new law, and they're putting a lot of pressure on a funding commission that is tasked with working out the law's details.Chief among the concerns is that the new funding formula doesn't provide any funding. It's a hangar waiting for clothes.But groups such as the Nevada State Education Association are also concerned about the idea that funding must follow the student. That means that students who need extra help - as ELL students, as underprivileged students, as GATE students, as disabled students - would get funding for that extra help no matter what school they went to. Even if they were the only ones who needed that extra help in those schools. That is not what we do now. What we do now is to give extra funding to schools that have large populations of students who fall into those categories. This is called "weighted funding."Carrie Kaufman sat down with two critics of the bill who are hoping the funding commission will fix the issues they say might be harmful.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is only as moral and as good as those who create it. Today, AI ethics thought-leader Joe Fatheree and I discuss this topic. Without discussing the ethics of AI and its algorithms, we risk opening the ultimate Pandora’s box of technology problems when we should instead work to get hope out of the AI box and keep the demons that could misuse and abuse us locked away. I’m not too sure we currently have the moral capacity and knowledge of right and wrong to wisely use AI. Either way, AI is here and we can be part of the conversation or we can sit in the corner and say “Nah Nah Nah I can’t hear you” until AI hears us and builds a cage around our little corner from which we cannot escape because ultimately, the key to any technology is crafted by those who make themselves part of the conversation.   www.coolcatteacher.com/472 *** Sponsor: Advancement Courses, a 30-year leader in teacher PD, is kicking off their Spring Sale!
