More quotes by Harvey Mackay
Life is series of opportunities. The often neglected fact of life is that opportunities multiply as you take advantage of them.
Harvey Mackay
Don't wait for a funeral to pay a compliment. You may not make it in time.
Harvey Mackay
It's way easier to stay in the comfort zone, especially when things are going good than to go out on a limb and take some risks. My philosophy is exactly the opposite: Sometimes it's risky not to take a risk.
Harvey Mackay
Believe in yourself, even when no one else does.

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
Say and do what you mean, but never say and do it meanly.
Harvey Mackay
Ethical decisions ensure that everyone's best interests are protected. When in doubt, don't.
Harvey Mackay
Don't confuse visibility with credibility.
Harvey Mackay
Staying in touch with contacts is as important as getting them in the first place.
Harvey Mackay
Most fears of rejection rest on the desire for approval from other people. Don't base your self-esteem on their opinions.
Harvey Mackay
Amateurs wait for inspiration. The real pros get up and go to work.
Harvey Mackay
Ideas without action are worthless.
Harvey Mackay
Anyone too busy to say thank you will get fewer and fewer chances to say it.
