names people skill
If you want people to know how much you care, show them how much you remember. Learn their names and use them often. It's an important skill to develop.
self-esteem people self-respect
Most fears of rejection rest on the desire for approval from other people. Don't base your self-esteem on their opinions.
people may
Many people may listen, but few people actually hear.
goal people missing
Good intentions aren't enough. People have good intentions when they set a goal to do something, but then they miss a deadline or other milestone.
destiny hands people
I've learned that people will seldom let you down if they understand that your destiny is in their hands, and vice versa.
lonely people way
It's only lonely at the top if you forget all the people you met along the way and fail to acknowledge their contributions to your success.
leadership years people
It all comes down to this: If you want one year of happiness, grow grain If you want 10 years of happiness, grow trees If you want 100 years of happiness, grow people
believe people ego
Ego stops you from getting things done and getting people to work with you. That's why I firmly believe that ego and success are not compatible.
taken winning people
You can win more friends with your ears than with your mouth. People who feel like they're being listened to feel accepted and appreciated. They feel like they're being taken seriously and what they say really matters.
people ego lines
What motivates people to be late?... Some people are drawn to the adrenaline rush of that last-minute sprint to the finish line. Others receive an ego boost from over-scheduling and filling each moment with an activity.
nice years people
It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice. You don't know who your top customers will be five years from now or where you will be in 10 years. You may have a fancy title, but you will always need help from the people around you.
people please offers
You'll never please everyone, but you only have to please a few people to get an offer.
people personality reacting
Once you attach your personality to a proposition, people start reacting to the personality and stop reacting to the proposition.
people advice opinion
There is a time to provide advice and offer an opinion, and there is a time not to. Don't be too quick to offer unsolicited advice. It certainly will not endear you to people.
