You can make more
friends in
two months by becoming interested in other people than you can
in two years by trying to get other people interested in you. |

The person who seeks all their applause from outside has
their happiness in another's keeping. |
Dale
Carnegie |

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.
If we think happy thoughts, we will be happy. If we think
miserable thoughts, we will be miserable.
Are you bored with
life? Then throw yourself into some work you believe in
with all your heart, live for it, die for it, and you will
find
happiness
that you had thought could never be yours.
Today's life – the only life you are sure of. Make the most
of today. Get interested in something. Shake yourself awake.
Develop a hobby. Let the winds of
enthusiasm sweep through
you. Live today with gusto...

When dealing with people, let us remember we are not dealing
with creatures of logic. We are dealing with creatures of
emotion, creatures bustling with prejudices and
motivated by pride and vanity.
Personally I am very fond of strawberries and cream, but I have
found that for some strange reason, fish prefer worms. So when I
went fishing, I didn’t think about what I wanted. I thought
about what they wanted. I didn't bait the hook with strawberries
and cream. Rather, I dangled a worm or grasshopper in front of
the fish and said: "Wouldn't you like to have that?"
Why not use the same common sense when fishing for people?”...

There is only one
excuse for a speaker's asking the attention of his audience: he
must have either truth or entertainment for them. |
Dale
Carnegie |
|
A talk is a voyage. It must be charted. The speaker
who starts nowhere, usually gets there.
Be absorbed by your subject.
Speakers who talk about what life has taught them
never fail to keep the attention of their listeners.
Observe Nature, study her laws, and obey them in
your speaking...
