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.

More quotes by Dale Carnegie
Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs.
Dale Carnegie
Each nation feels superior to other nations. That breeds patriotism - and wars.
Dale Carnegie
There are four ways, and only four ways, in which we have contact with the world. We are evaluated and classified by these four contacts: what we do, how we look, what we say, and how we say it.
Dale Carnegie
Today is life-the only life you are sure of. Make the most of today.
Dale Carnegie
Your purpose is to make your audience see what you saw, hear what you heard, feel what you felt.
Dale Carnegie
Monotony reveals our limitations.
Dale Carnegie
When ill luck besets us, to ease the tension we have only to remember that happiness is relative. The next time you are tempted to grumble about what has happened to you, why not pause and be glad that it is no worse than it is.
Dale Carnegie
A good deed, said the prophet Mohammed, is one that brings a smile of joy to the face of another. Why will doing a good deed every day produce such astounding efforts on the doer? Because trying to please others will cause us to stop thinking of ourselves: the very thing that produces worry and fear and melancholia.
Dale Carnegie
I've found that worry and irritation vanish into thin air the moment I open my mind to the many blessings I possess.
Dale Carnegie
Pay less attention to what men say. Just watch what they do.
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 talking to yourself about the things you have to be grateful for you can fill your mind with thoughts that soar and sing.
Dale Carnegie
If you want others to like you, if you want to develop real friendships, if you want to help others at the same time as you help yourself, keep this principle in mind: Become genuinely interested in other people.
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
When you're afraid keep your mind on what you have to do. And if you have been thoroughly prepared you will not be afraid.
Dale Carnegie
Happiness is largely an attitude of mind, of viewing life from the right angle.
Dale Carnegie
Let's not allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. Remember Life is too short to be little.
Dale Carnegie
90% of all management problems are caused by miscommunication.
Dale Carnegie
Remember that unjust critisism is often a disquised compliment.
Dale Carnegie
The resentment that criticism engenders can demoralize employees, family members and friends, and still not correct the situation that has been condemned.
Dale Carnegie
