- Daring To Be Yourself Quotes -
"You are what you have always secretly longed to be." - Dale Carnegie - How to Win Friends and Influence People (1936)
"So many people see life as a race in which there are winners and losers, but that's one of the ways life can't be seen because then you become a loser. Instead, we should see every situation as an opportunity for growth. If we see it that way, then when we fail or lose, there's no disgrace because it's an opportunity to learn something and grow. Similarly, if you succeed, that's wonderful but don't think you've arrived. See it as an opportunity to grow more."
- Dale Carnegie - How to Win Friends and Influence People (1936)
"There is only one way... to get anybody to do anything. And that is by making the other person want to do it."
- Dale Carnegie - How to Win Friends and Influence People (1936)
"Remember this: You can't win an argument. You can't because if you lose it you lose it; if you win it you lose it. Why? Well, suppose you triumph over the other man and shoot his arguments full of holes and prove that he is non-existent. Well, it was his argument that made him appear to be a thinker. Without it, he isn't even qualified to be considered on the level of a louse or a bug. And by proving your point you have put him in that class."
- Dale Carnegie - How to Win Friends and Influence People (1936)
"The only way on God's green Earth to influence other people is to talk about what they want and show them how they can get it. We are not going to be able to prove the truth of the principles that we stand for.
- Dale Carnegie - How to Win Friends and Influence People (1936) "You must remember that just as you want people to like you, they also want people to like them. And because of this inner need for approval, most people will accept your friendship or association with them so long as you show the proper consideration for others.
Conclusion
The quote about Jeremy Lin that I added to this article sums it up well. It is just a game; a game to be enjoyed. So from now on, I'll play it as if it really matters. If I win, great. If I lose, great; because there is no disgrace in failure; only opportunity for growth. It IS important to live life so that you are truly happy and free while you are alive. Flush the toilet of worry and regret down the drain before it brings you down! The life you have is special because it's yours! Enjoy it! Have fun and feel good about yourself regardless of what other people think or say.
