Harvey Mackay
By my count, more business leaders have failed and derailed because of arrogance than any other character flaw.
Harvey Mackay
It isn't the quality of the ideas you have that will determine whether you make a success of them, it's the qualities you bring to those ideas.
Harvey Mackay
Humility is becoming a lost art, but it's not difficult to practice. It means that you realize that others have been involved in your success.
Harvey Mackay
our lives change in two ways :through the people we meet and the books we read
Harvey Mackay
Don't fall in love with your wit. Your cleverly turned phrase may not, as you hope, show off how much gray matter you have, especially if the phrase is at someone else's expense.
Harvey Mackay
Failure is not falling down but staying down.
Harvey Mackay
Say and do what you mean, but never say and do it meanly.
Harvey Mackay
