More quotes by Dale Carnegie
Practice, practice, practice in speaking before an audience will tend to remove all fear of audiences, just as practice in swimming will lead to confidence and facility in the water. You must learn to speak by speaking.
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
We all have possibilities we don't know about. We can do things we don't even dream we can do. It's only when necessity faces us that we rise to the occasion and actually do the things that hitherto have seemed impossible.
Dale Carnegie
It isn't work that makes you tired, it's your mental attitude.
Dale Carnegie
Do things for others and you'll find your self-consciousness evaporating like morning dew.
Dale Carnegie
The only way to get the best of an argument is to avoid it.
Dale Carnegie
Learning is an active process. We learn by doing.. Only knowledge that is used sticks in your mind.
Dale Carnegie
Use encouragement. Make the fault seem easy to correct.
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
I know men and women can banish worry, fear and various kinds of illnesses, and can transform their lives by changing their thoughts. I know! I know! I know! I have seen such incredible transformations performed hundreds of times. I have seen them so often that I no longer wonder at them.
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
You cannot teach a man anything, you can only help him find it within himself.
Dale Carnegie
If we speak poorly about that which we do well... people will assume we perform poorly!
Dale Carnegie
You can sing only what you are. You can paint only what you are. You must be what your experiences, your environment, and your heredity have made you. For better or for worse, you must play your own little instrument in the orchestra of life.
Dale Carnegie
Talk in terms of the other person's interests.
Dale Carnegie
Every day I pray. I yield myself to God and the tensions and anxieties go out of me and peace and power come in.
Dale Carnegie
The ability to speak well is the shortcut to distinction.
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
We move toward what we picture in our minds.
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.
