If one is straight-forward, he or she high possibly will show everything in the face, whatever happy, angry, sad and joy. I am one of those that you can find smiling in the face only when I am happy. You cannot expect me to smile as people, flower or animals when I am in sad, sorrow or angry emotion.
As we know that is not good for people relationship for generally people do not want to stay with easy-long-face man. But how can I smile at people when I feel sad, angry or sorrow?
Dale Carnegie training provides solution to this problem.
I keep the small application principles with me every day try to remind myself by getting reference to the booklet and Smiling at mirror.
Two weeks ago, it turned to more than 20 centigrade from about 10 centigrade and the air humidity was so high. My house wall and ceiling began to mildew. It looked ugly and dirty.
So I kept the window open whenever I noticed for several days.
One night, I opened the windows and doors again so to let wind go through the room.
But when wife got back home, she was very angry to me! She looked around about the mold and water on floors and cried to me:
Are you out of mind? In such season and days with high humidity, we must keep all windows and doors close! How bad it is with so much mold on walls!
I felt not good and a little irritated with her. Just before I kicked off an argument with her, Carnegie Principle reminded me—SMILE!
So I piled up smiles on my face immediately and replied to wife: Ah, great wife, smart wife! You are right, I am wrong!
When my wife wanted to blame me more, I kept on saying YES and praising her with smiles: Yes, mighty wife, you are correct!
Great! Smile always works well! Within 2 minutes, she became happy and forgot it though she could not stop wiping the water on the floor!
I am afraid people will call me MR Smile in near future?!

I cannot stop my smiling by reading this article! Are you also smiling when you read it?
What a different result when use smile to embrace the blames. When the stone of blame was forced into our body, we can use the pearl liquid of smile to embrace it, then it will transform from a pain into a shining pearl!
The husband in the article was rewarded with a big “ pearl”, we will be awarded with this kind of pearls if we continue applying Dale Carnegie principles.
