Additional quotes by Dale Carnegie

إن التفكير الجيد يتعامل مع الأسباب والمؤثرات ويؤدي إلى التخطيط المنطقي والبناء فيما يؤدي التفكير السيء عادة إلى التوتر والإنهيار العصبي

Salutation to the Dawn Look to this day! For it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course Lie all the verities and realities of your existence: The bliss of growth The glory of action The splendor of beauty, For yesterday is but a dream And tomorrow is only a vision, But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness And every tomorrow a vision of hope.

I have also eliminated criticism from my system. I give appreciation and praise now instead of condemnation. I have stopped talking about what I want. I am now trying to see the other person’s viewpoint. And these things have literally revolutionized my life. I am a totally different man, a happier man, a richer man, richer in friendships and happiness — the only things that matter much after all.
