More quotes by Dale Carnegie
Our thoughts make us what we are.
Dale Carnegie
The words Think and Thank are inscribed in many of the Cromwellian churches of England. These words ought to be inscribed in our hearts, too: Think and Thank. Think of all we have to be grateful for, and thank God for all our boons and bounties.
Dale Carnegie
Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves.
Dale Carnegie
Life truly is a boomerang. What you give, you get.
Dale Carnegie
Try honest to see things from the other person's point of view.
Dale Carnegie
If we speak poorly about that which we do well... people will assume we perform poorly!
Dale Carnegie
If you do something for someone else, never remember. If someone does something for you, never forget.
Dale Carnegie
The only way to get the best of an argument is to avoid it.
Dale Carnegie
Remember that other people may be totally wrong. But they don't think so. Don't condemn them. Any fool can do that. Try to understand them. Only wise, tolerant, exceptional people even try to do that.
Dale Carnegie
Knowledge isn’t power until it is applied.
Dale Carnegie
If you are wrong, admit it quickly and emphatically.
Dale Carnegie
Look your audience straight in the eyes, and begin to talk as if every one of them owed you money.
Dale Carnegie
We nourish the bodies of our children and friends and employees, but how seldom do we nourish their selfesteem? We provide them with roast beef and potatoes to build energy, but we neglect to give them kind words of appreciation that would sing in their memories for years like the music of the morning stars.
Dale Carnegie
The difference between appreciation and flattery? That is simple. One is sincere and the other insincere. One comes from the heart out the other from the teeth out. One is unselfish the other selfish. One is universally admired the other universally condemned.
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
There is a reason why the other man thinks and acts as he does. Ferret out that reason — and you have the key to his actions, perhaps to his personality. Try honestly to put yourself in his place.
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
Success in dealing with people depends on sympathetic grasp of the other person's viewpoint.
Dale Carnegie
Give the other person a fine reputation to live up to.
Dale Carnegie
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
