Learning is an active process. We learn by doing.. Only knowledge that is used sticks in your mind.
Dale Carnegie
Criticism is futile because it puts a person on the defensive and usually makes them strive to justify themselves. Criticism is dangerous, because it wounds a person's precious pride, hurts their sense of importance, and arouses resentment.
Dale Carnegie
Flattery is telling the other person precisely what he thinks about himself.
Dale Carnegie
Don't criticize, condemn or complain. Constantly criticizing, condemning and complaining is what breaks most relationships. Instead of criticizing and condemning, figure out how you can solve the problem together. Instead of focusing on blaming the other person for what they did wrong, focus on how you can avoid the problem next time.
Dale Carnegie
Try to fix firmly in your mind what you would like to do and then, without veering off direction, you will move straight to the goal.
