How to Stop Worrying and Start Living
How to Stop Worrying and Start Living is a self-help book by Dale Carnegie. It was first printed in Great Britain
in 1948 by Richard Clay (The Chaucer Press), Ltd., Bungay Suffolk
(S.B.N. 437 95083 2).
Carnegie says in the preface to How to Stop Worrying and Start Living that he wrote it because he "was one of the unhappiest lads in New York". He said that he made himself sick with worry because he hated his position in life, which he attributes to wanting to figure out how to stop worrying.
The book's goal is to lead the reader to a more enjoyable and
fulfilling lifestyle, helping them to become more aware of, not only
themselves, but others around them. Carnegie tries to address the
everyday nuances of living, in order to get the reader to focus on the
more important aspects of life.
