More quotes by Dale Carnegie
Every day I pray. I yield myself to God and the tensions and anxieties go out of me and peace and power come in.
Dale Carnegie
Men of age object too much, consult too long, adventure too little, repent too soon, and seldom drive business home to the full period, but content themselves with a mediocrity of success.
Dale Carnegie
Ask questions instead of giving direct orders.
Dale Carnegie
You can sing only what you are. You can paint only what you are. You must be what your experiences, your environment, and your heredity have made you. For better or for worse, you must play your own little instrument in the orchestra of life.
Dale Carnegie
If you want to be enthusiastic, act enthusiastic.
Dale Carnegie
Tell me what gives a man or woman their greatest pleasure and I'll tell you their philosophy of life.
Dale Carnegie
One of the surest ways of making a friend and influencing the opinion of another is to give consideration to [his or her] opinion, let [him or her] sustain a feeling of importance.
Dale Carnegie
If you want to develop courage, do the thing you fear and keep on doing it until you have a record of successful experiences behind you. That is the quickest and surest way ever yet discovered to conquer fear. You can conquer almost any fear if you will only make up your mind to do so. For remember, fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.
Dale Carnegie
You are something new in this world. Never before, since the beginning of time, has there ever been anybody exactly like you and never again throughout all the ages to come will there ever be anybody exactly like you again.
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
Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime.
Dale Carnegie
Everyday is a new life to a wise man.
Dale Carnegie
Do the thing you fear to do and keep on doing it... that is the quickest and surest way ever yet discovered to conquer fear.
Dale Carnegie
Face the thing that seems overwhelming and you will be surprised how your fear will melt away.
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
He who treads softly goes far.
Dale Carnegie
One can win the attention and time and cooperation of even the most sought-after people by becoming genuinely interested in them.
Dale Carnegie
By fighting you never get enough, but by yielding you get more than you expected.
Dale Carnegie
If you want others to like you, if you want to develop real friendships, if you want to help others at the same time as you help yourself, keep this principle in mind: Become genuinely interested in 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
