More quotes by 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
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
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
There's a place in the world for any business that takes care of its customers-after the sale.

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
If you don't look ahead, you'll always be behind.
Harvey Mackay
One sure-fire way to stay creative: force yourself to learn something new.
Harvey Mackay
Goals give you more than a reason to get up in the morning they are an incentive to keep you going all day.
Harvey Mackay
You have to look life straight in the eye. De-mystify your world. Can you really afford to believe magic is for real? Not when time is concerned.
Harvey Mackay
Good habits are as addictive as bad habits, and a lot more rewarding.
Harvey Mackay
If you find yourself plagued by a recurrent worry, train yourself to think of something else. Your conscious mind can concentrate on only one thought at a time, and driving the negativity away will free you up to move forward again.
Harvey Mackay
The first successful salesperson was not a man, it was Eve.
Harvey Mackay
Deadlines aren't bad. They help you organize your time. They help you set priorities. They make you get going when you might not feel like it.
Harvey Mackay
Failure is an attitude, not an outcome.
Harvey Mackay
By getting your customers to agree with you in small steps along the way, you have a better chance of reaching agreement when it's time to do business.
