Take a chance! All life is a chance
Dale Carnegie
'When you have a lemon, make a lemonade.' That is what a great educator does. But the fool does the exact opposite. If he finds that life has handed him a lemon, he gives up and says, 'I 'm beaten. It is fate. I haven't got a chance.' Then he proceeds to rail against the world and indulge in an orgy of self-pity .
Dale Carnegie
Let's not allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. Remember Life is too short to be little.

Let's never try to get even with our enemies, because if we do we will hurt ourselves far more than we hurt them. Let's do as General Eisenhower does: let's never waste a minute thinking about people we don't like.
Dale Carnegie
If you want to be happy, set yourself a goal that commands your thoughts, liberates your energy and inspires your hopes. Happiness is within you. It comes from doing some certain thing into which you can put all your thought and energy. If you want to be happy, get enthusiastic about something.
Dale Carnegie
Pay less attention to what men say. Just watch what they do.
Dale Carnegie
Flattery is from the teeth out. Sincere appreciation is from the heart out.
Dale Carnegie
When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with creatures of logic, but creatures of emotion.
Dale Carnegie
He who treads softly goes far.
Dale Carnegie
Give your problem all the thought you possibly can before a solution is reached. But when the matter is settled and over with, worry not at all.
Dale Carnegie
When the friendly jailer gave Socrates the poison cup to drink, the jailer said: Try to bear lightly what needs must be. Socrates did. He faced death with a calmness and resignation that touched the hem of divinity.
Dale Carnegie
Advertising. The movies do it. TV does it. Why don't you do it?
