running passion men
It may be in seemingly unimportant things that a man expresses his passion for perfection, yet they will count heavily in the long run.
men giving failing
The man who fails to give fair service during the hours for which he is paid is dishonest. The man who is not willing to give more than this is foolish.
believe welfare sincere
You can tell a workingman you like him, but he knows whether you are sincere or not. You can't make him believe you are interested in his welfare unless you are.
opportunity men two
The men who miss success have two general alibis: 'I'm not a genius' is one; and the other, 'There aren't the opportunities today there used to be'.
men receiving wages
What we must seek is a plan by which the men will receive high wages when the employers are receiving high prices for the product.
real opportunity greatness
The real test of business greatness is in giving opportunity to others.
believe people genius
The thing that most people call 'genius' I do not believe in.
country uphill-climbs degrees
We have reached in this country an amazing degree of general prosperity, with American business on the whole no longer facing an uphill climb.
men today way
There is not a man in power at our Bethlehem steel works today who did not begin at the bottom and work his way up.
men self salary
The man who counts his hours and kicks about his salary is a self-elected failure.
men thinking trying
The man who attracts attention is the man who is thinking all the time, and expressing himself in little ways. It is not the man who tries to dazzle his employer by doing the theatrical, the spectacular.
thinking people sample
Many of us think of salespeople as people travelling around with sample kits. Instead, we are all salesman, every day of our lives.
stars men self
Most talk about 'super-geniuses' is nonsense. I have found that when 'stars' drop out, successors are usually at hand to fill their places, and the successors are merely men who have learned by application and self-discipline to get full production from an average, normal brain.
jobs matter courses
Nothing is more fatal to success than taking one's job as a matter of course.
