More quotes by 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
How often we all have heard speakers begin by calling the attention of the audience to their lack of preparation or lack of ability. If you are not prepared, the audience will probably discover it without your assistance.
Dale Carnegie
This is the only chance you will ever have on earth with this exciting adventure called life. So why not plan it, and try to live it as richly, as happily as possible?
Dale Carnegie
A boil on a man's neck is more important to him than 40 floods in India
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
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
Keep your mind open to change all the time. Welcome it. Court it. It is only by examining and reexamining your opinions and ideas that you can progress.
Dale Carnegie
If we merely try to impress people and get people interested in us, we will never have many true, sincere friends. Friends, real friends, are not made that way.
Dale Carnegie
No matter what happens, always be yourself.
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 can dramatize your ideas in business or in any other aspect of your life. It’s easy
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
Mix judgement with ambition and season it with energy. It makes a splendid recipe for success.
Dale Carnegie
You never achieve success unless you like what you are doing.
Dale Carnegie
Put a 'stop-loss' order on your worries. Decide just how much anxiety a thing may be worth- and refuse to give it any more.
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
Let the other person save face.
Dale Carnegie
Act enthusiastic and you will be enthusiastic.
Dale Carnegie
Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.
Dale Carnegie
The resentment that criticism engenders can demoralize employees, family members and friends, and still not correct the situation that has been condemned.
Dale Carnegie
