Dale Carnegie (November 24, 1888 – November 1, 1955) was an American writer and lecturer, and the developer of courses in self-improvement, salesmanship, corporate training, public speaking, and interpersonal skills. Born into poverty on a farm in Missouri, he was the author of "How to Win Friends and Influence People" (1936), a bestseller that remains popular today. He also wrote "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living" (1948), "Lincoln the Unknown" (1932), and several other books. One of the core ideas in his books is that it is possible to change other people's behavior by changing one's behavior towards them. Quotes : *** If you are not in the process of becoming the person you want to be, you are automatically engaged in becoming the person you don't want to be. *** Be wiser than other people if you can; but do not tell them so. *** Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, ‘I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you. *** Even god doesn't propose to judge a man till his last days, why should you and I? *** Our thoughts make us what we are. *** Knowledge isn’t power until it is applied. *** ...the best possible way to prepare for tomorrow is to concentrate with all your intelligence, all your enthusiasm, on doing today's work superbly today. That is the only possible way you can prepare for the future. *** No matter what happens, always be yourself. *** Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. *** Two men looked out from prison bars, One saw the mud, the other saw stars. *** If you can't sleep, then get up and do something instead of lying there and worrying. It's the worry that gets you, not the loss of sleep. *** Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation, for your character is what you are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are. *** One reason why birds and horses are not unhappy is because they are not trying to impress other birds and horses. *** #dalecarnegie #carnegie #quotes #life #motivation #inspiration #sayingsinspiring #quotesdalecarnegie #philosophical #wisdom #fromphilosophers #quotesinspirational #quotesmotivational #sayingsmotivational
