More quotes by Dale Carnegie
If you do something for someone else, never remember. If someone does something for you, never forget.
Dale Carnegie
If you tell me how you get your feeling of importance, I'll tell you what you are.
Dale Carnegie
Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs.
Dale Carnegie
I deal with the obvious. I present, reiterate, and glorify the obvious - because the obvious is what people need to be told.
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
Create happiness for others.
Dale Carnegie
When fate hands you a lemon, make lemonade.
Dale Carnegie
Flattery is from the teeth out. Sincere appreciation is from the heart out.
Dale Carnegie
People do things for their reasons, not ours. So find their reasons.
Dale Carnegie
We move toward what we picture in our minds.
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
You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world's happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged. Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime.
Dale Carnegie
Instead of worrying about what people say of you, why not spend time trying to accomplish something they will admire.
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
The royal road to a man's heart is to talk to him about the things he treasures most.
Dale Carnegie
It isn’t what you have or who you are or where you are or what you’re doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It’s what you think of it. Two people may in the same place doing the same thing, and yet one may be miserable and the other happy. Why? Because of a different mental attitude.
Dale Carnegie
Today is the only time we can possibly live.
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
Begin with praise and honest appreciation. Call attention to people's mistakes indirectly. Talk about your own mistakes before criticizing the other person. Ask questions instead of giving direct orders. Make the fault easy to correct. Make the other person happy about doing what you suggest.
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
