Dale Carnegie
Image
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
Image
Learning is an active process. We learn by doing.. Only knowledge that is used sticks in your mind.
