More quotes by Dale Carnegie
When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with creatures of logic, but creatures of emotion.
Dale Carnegie
STOP AND LOOK out the window and see how beautiful the world is. It is there-enjoy it. Go out tonight and look up at the stars. They are the wonders of nature
Dale Carnegie
The thing is to get the work done.
Dale Carnegie
It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.
Dale Carnegie
Close your eyes. You might try saying. . . something like this: The sun is shining overhead. The sky is blue and sparkling. Nature is calm and in control of the world-and I, as nature's child, am in tune with the Universe. Or-better still-pray!
Dale Carnegie
Always avoid the acute angle.
Dale Carnegie
Many people think that if they were only in some other place, or had some other job, they would be happy. Well, that is doubtful. So get as much happiness out of what you are doing as you can and don't put off being happy until some future date.
Dale Carnegie
Looking at the other person's point of view and arousing in him an eager want for something is not to be construed as manipulating that person so that he will do something that is only for your benefit and his detriment. Each party should gain from the negotiation.
Dale Carnegie
Most of us have far more courage than we ever dreamed we possessed.
Dale Carnegie
When fate hands you a lemon, make lemonade.
Dale Carnegie
The world is filled with interesting things to do. Don't lead a dull life in such a thrilling world.
Dale Carnegie
The biggest lesson I have learned is the stupendous importance of what we think. If I knew what you think, I would know what you are, for your thoughts make you what you are by changing our thoughts, we can change our lives.
Dale Carnegie
If you disagree with them you may be tempted to interrupt. But don't. It is dangerous. They won't pay attention to you while they still have a lot of ideas of their own crying for expression. So listen patiently and with an open mind.
Dale Carnegie
If half a century of living has taught me anything at all, it has taught me that nothing can bring you peace but yourself.
Dale Carnegie
(A smile) costs nothing, but creates much.
Dale Carnegie
Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime.
Dale Carnegie
Confusion is the main cause of worry
Dale Carnegie
History has repeatedly been changed by people who had the desire and the ability to transfer their convictions and emotions to their listeners.
Dale Carnegie
So if you aspire to be a good conversationali st, be an attentive listener.
Dale Carnegie
There is a reason why the other man thinks and acts as he does. Ferret out that reason — and you have the key to his actions, perhaps to his personality. Try honestly to put yourself in his place.
Dale Carnegie
