More quotes by Dale Carnegie
(A smile) costs nothing, but creates much.
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
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
The royal road to a man's heart is to talk to him about the things he treasures most.
Dale Carnegie
Self-expression is the dominant necessity of human nature.
Dale Carnegie
Your purpose is to make your audience see what you saw, hear what you heard, feel what you felt. Relevant detail, couched in concrete, colorful language, is the best way to recreate the incident as it happened and to picture it for the audience.
Dale Carnegie
When two partners always agree, one of them is not necessary. If there is some point you haven't thought about, be thankful if it is brought to your attention.
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
By fighting you never get enough, but by yielding you get more than you expected.
Dale Carnegie
Take charge of your attitude. Don't let someone else choose it for you.
Dale Carnegie
Give your problem all the thought you possibly can before a solution is reached. But when the matter is settled and over with, worry not at all.
Dale Carnegie
Each party should gain from the negotiation.
Dale Carnegie
People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.
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
People are not interested in you. They are not interested in me. They are interested in themselves - morning, noon and after dinner.
Dale Carnegie
Check up each week on the progress you are making. Ask yourself what mistakes you have made, what improvement, what lessons you have learned for the future.
Dale Carnegie
The only way to get the best of an argument is to avoid it.
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.
Dale Carnegie
The sure-thing boat never gets far from shore.
Dale Carnegie
Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, ‘I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you.
Dale Carnegie
