Book excerpt: The Young Man in Business Edward Bok Digression is just as dangerous as stagnation in the career of a young man in business. There is absolutely no position worth the having in business life to-day to which a care of other interests can be added. Let a man attempt to serve the interests of one master, and if he serves him well he has his hands and his head full. There is a class of ambitious young men who have what they choose to call "an anchor to the windward" in their business. That is, they maintain something outside of their regular position. They do this from necessity, they claim. One position does not offer sufficient scope for their powers or talents; does not bring them sufficient income, and they are "forced," they explain, to take on something in addition. I have known such young men. But, so far as I have been able to discern, the trouble does not lie so much with the position they occupy as with themselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Young Man in Business Now, I would not for a moment be understood as belittling the value of faithfulness in an employee. But, after all, faithfulness is nothing more nor less than a negative quality. By faithfulness a man may hold a position a lifetime. He will keep it just where he found it. But by the exercise of this single quality he does not add to the importance of the position any more than he adds to his own value. It is not enough that it may be said of a young man that he is faith ful he must be something more. The willingness and capacity to be faithful to the smallest detail must be there, serving only, however, as a foundation upon which other qualities are built.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Three Great Temptations of Young Men: With Several Lectures Addressed to Business and Professional Men Tms volume contains the substance of a series of discourses principally addressed to young men, and delivered during the last winter in the Second Presbyterian Church in this city, of which the author is pastor. They are printed for the same reason that they were originally composed and delivered - to promote the temporal and eternal well being of the multitudes of young men who gather into these great centers of business. The desire for their publication has been so general among those who heard them, and expressed in so substantial a manner, that the author has not felt at liberty to withhold them. He has long been convinced, that these popular vices, perhaps because they are so manifestly evil and ruinous, have not received that atten tion from the pulpit and the press which their fearful prevalence in our large cities imperatively demands. By the pulpit, they have been regarded as so unmistakably wicked so broadly offensive to religion, as to need only an occasional allusion, an indirect discussion; by the press at large, they have too generally been regarded either as a necessary evil, or as fine subjects for editorial witticisms. Meanwhile hundreds and thou sands are yearly entering upon this broad pathway to perdition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Business Vol 4 of 10 Classic Reprint written by Andrew Carnegie and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Every word of Mr. Carnegie's lecture is worth study. He speaks out of a ripe experience to young men, with a heart brimful of kindness and human sympathy," reads the introduction of Business. Andrew Carnegie was an industrial giant during his time, working his way out of poverty into a life of plenty. This book immortalizes his insights on the world of business, which was taken from one of the lectures he gave. His statements take on a cloak of authority and credibility due to his tremendous success in running his businesses. This gravitas make virtually every line in his lecture a gem of an insight worth tucking away in one's entrepreneurial armory for future use. When Mr. Carnegie says that a president of a company receiving a salary or a salaried officer of any kind is not in business, one cannot help but nod along with him without a trace of doubt. Although this very short edition was published in 1926, most, if not all, of the author's pearls of entrepreneurial wisdom are still relevant today. It also helps that the eminent industrialist's communication style makes his points easy to understand and follow. Aside from that, he uses examples that facilitate a clearer and deeper understanding of the points he raised. This shows that not only was Mr. Carnegie a visionary and a driven businessman, he also was a wise mentor able to explain essential concepts and ideas in getting into and running a successful venture.

Diligence, perseverance, firmness, and untiring self-denial, may, after all, be so directed as to be a curse to their owner instead of a blessing. The haste to be rich, and the eagerness to amass wealth, have in all ages, -and never more than in our own day - proved a prolific source of selfishness, vice, and misery.
