More quotes by Harvey Mackay
Rough spots sharpen our performance. And more often than not, obstacles can be turned into advantages. You just can't let your disappointment get in the way.
Harvey Mackay
Don't confuse visibility with credibility.
Harvey Mackay
The life of a startup is full of ups and downs, an emotional roller coaster ride that you can't quite imagine if you've spent your whole career in a corporation.
Harvey Mackay
Worrying makes you cross the bridge before you come to it.
Harvey Mackay
To be a champion, you have to learn to handle stress and pressure. But if you've prepared mentally and physically, you don't have to worry.
Harvey Mackay
There is no shame in taking pride in achievements or position. But nobody gets to the top alone.
Harvey Mackay
Fatigue makes fools of us all. It robs us of our skills, our judgment, and blinds us to creative solutions.
Harvey Mackay
It's only lonely at the top if you forget all the people you met along the way and fail to acknowledge their contributions to your success.
Harvey Mackay
One mistake will never kill you. The same mistake over and over again will.
Harvey Mackay
There is a time to provide advice and offer an opinion, and there is a time not to. Don't be too quick to offer unsolicited advice. It certainly will not endear you to people.
Harvey Mackay
A string of successes can kill you if they make you think, 'Hey, I'm smart I can't make any mistakes'.
Harvey Mackay
Hard work often leads to success. No work seldom does.
Harvey Mackay
Don't let ups and downs leave you down and out.
Harvey Mackay
Time is free, but it's priceless. You can't own it, but you can use it. You can't keep it, but you can spend it. Once you've lost it you can never get it back.
Harvey Mackay
Many, perhaps most, people who lose their jobs are mistaken about the reason for which they lost their jobs. Some will say that they're failures, others that their boss had it in for them, and others yet that they were sure their career ended because of a stupid faux pas they made at the company picnic.
Harvey Mackay
Mackay's Moral: If you are persistent, you will get it. If you are consistent, you will keep it.
Harvey Mackay
No company has a permanent consumer franchise. No one has the only game in town. The never-ending cycle of destruction and change inherent in a capitalist economy always provides new opportunities for those with determination, goals and concentration.
Harvey Mackay
Ideas without action are worthless.
Harvey Mackay
You're a lot better off being scared than being bored.
Harvey Mackay
One sure-fire way to stay creative: force yourself to learn something new.
Harvey Mackay
