More quotes by Dale Carnegie
Learn to love, respect and enjoy other people.
Dale Carnegie
There is only one way under high heaven to get anybody to do anything. Did you ever stop to think of that? Yes, just one way. And that is by making the other person want to do it.
Dale Carnegie
Give the other person a fine reputation to live up to.
Dale Carnegie
Look your audience straight in the eyes, and begin to talk as if every one of them owed you money.
Dale Carnegie
You must have a good time meeting people if you expect them to have a good time meeting you.
Dale Carnegie
Mix judgement with ambition and season it with energy. It makes a splendid recipe for success.
Dale Carnegie
When two partners always agree, one of them is not necessary. If there is some point you haven't thought about, be thankful if it is brought to your attention.
Dale Carnegie
Much of the best work of the world has been done against seeming impossibilities.
Dale Carnegie
To be interesting, be interested.
Dale Carnegie
Neither you nor I nor Einstein nor the Supreme Court of the United States is brilliant enough to reach an intelligent decision on any problem without first getting the facts
Dale Carnegie
The most important thing in life is not simply to capitalize on your gains. Any fool can do that. The important thing is to profit from your losses. That requires intelligence, and makes the difference between a man of sense and a fool.
Dale Carnegie
Fear is the result of a lack of confidence. A lack of confidence is the result of not knowing what you can do. A lack of knowing what you can do is caused by a lack of experience. A lack of experience is caused by a lack of doing something new.
Dale Carnegie
I honestly believe that this is one of the greatest secrets to true peace of mind -- a decent sense of values. We could annihilate 50 percent of all our worries at once if we would develop a sort of private gold standard -- a gold standard of what things are worth to us in terms of our lives.
Dale Carnegie
The way to defeat fear: decide on a course of conduct and follow it. Keep so busy and work so hard that you forget about being afraid.
Dale Carnegie
If you can't sleep, then get up and do something instead of lying there worrying. It's the worry that gets you, not the lack of sleep.
Dale Carnegie
Take stock of your fears now and see how many of them are senseless. If you are honest with yourself you will probably find most of them are groundless.
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
You are going to survive. And good things are going to start to happen again. And one day you are going to look back and this will not even be such a bad thing
Dale Carnegie
The essence of all art is to have pleasure in giving pleasure.
Dale Carnegie
It was this desire for a feeling of importance that led an uneducated, poverty-stricken grocery clerk to study some law books he found in the bottom of a barrel of household plunder that he had bought for fifty cents. You have probably heard of this grocery clerk. His name was Lincoln.
