安德魯卡內基及他的父母

卡內基的母親告訴他,為了生存,他必須把個人需求放在其他人之前。這是家庭貧窮所導致的結果,尤其在他父親死後。

您可以看見他的某些行為深受他母親的價值觀影響。1865年時,有人告訴卡內基鐵道工人打算要罷工並將組織罷工的工人清單交給他。卡內基將這份資料交給他的老闆,而他的老闆則開除了清單上的所有人。所以罷工尚未成型就已經結束。您對卡內基的做法有什麼感想?您認為他的行為將如何影響他稍後的生活?


Carnegie's mother taught him that he needed to put his own needs before those of others in order to survive. This is a direct result of the family's poverty, especially after his father died.

You can see how his mother's values influenced him by some of his actions. In 1865, someone told Carnegie that the railroad workers were about to strike and gave him a list of the strike organizers. Carnegie gave the information to his boss, who fired everyone on the list. So the strike was broken before it even began. What do you think about what Carnegie did? How do you think his actions affected him later in life?
