Dale Carnegie

The essence of all Art is to have pleasure in giving pleasure.

Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.

Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.

It isn’t what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about it.

People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.

Athletic skills are acquired over a long period of time and after countless hours of practice.

You were designed for accomplishment, engineered for success, and endowed with the seeds of greatness.

Dream big and dare to fail.

Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better.

What distinguishes us from one another is our dreams, and what we do to make them come about.

With integrity, you have nothing to fear, since you have nothing to hide. With integrity, you will do the right thing, so you will have no guilt.

If you eat a frog first thing in the morning, the rest of your day will be wonderful.

It takes 20 years to build a reputation and 5 minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.

Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.

Positive thinking will let you do everything better than negative thinking will.

For all the hard times and tough challenges I faced during different periods of my life, I think I was lucky or blessed or both. When things looked bleak, a good guide would appear to set me straight. Someone once asked me about the villains who got in my way, the bad guys who wanted to trip me up or take me out. I don’t remember any. Maybe it’s my nature to remember the good and forget the bad, or maybe it’s my destiny to lock onto the righteous for help.

Motivation is a fire from within. If someone else tries to light that fire under you, chances are it will burn very briefly.

Aim for the highest

You will never know true freedom until you achieve financial freedom.

People with goals succeed because they know where they’re going.
