Dale Carnegie

Do the hard jobs first. The easy jobs will take care of themselves.

The expression a woman wears on her face is far more important than the clothes she wears on her back.

The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.

If only the people who worry about their liabilities would think about the riches they do possess, they would stop worrying.

Act enthusiastic and you will be enthusiastic.

Fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.

Only the prepared speaker deserves to be confident.

Feeling sorry for yourself, and your present condition, is not only a waste of energy but the worst habit you could possibly have.

You can conquer almost any fear if you will only make up your mind to do so. For remember, fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.

If you want to be enthusiastic, act enthusiastic.

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.

Your purpose is to make your audience see what you saw, hear what you heard, feel what you felt. Relevant detail, couched in concrete, colorful language, is the best way to recreate the incident as it happened and to picture it for the audience.
