On Success...

People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing. You will never succeed while smarting under the drudgery of your occupation – if you are constantly thinking that you could succeed better in something else. You have to put your heart into what you are doing. You need to enjoy what you are doing. The more passionate you are about your job, the more chances of your success.

Patience. Success is never overnight. One step at a time. If you find your goal insurmountable, break it down into smaller goals. When you achieved one goal, you can proceed to the next. In this way, you increase your chances of success.

It is also important that you know your limits, know what you are capable of. You might have high ambitions and goals, but if your skills do not match your goals, you will not go far.

Success does not come easy. You have to dare, to take risk. There is a price, and there is sacrifice to be made if you wish to achieve success. If you are not willing to do any of that, you will never succeed.

So, pick something you are passionate about and devote your energy to it – commit yourself to that one thing until you succeed. And, if despite all your efforts, you still do not succeed, take comfort that you had fun during the process. That in itself, is success, even if you didn’t achieve your goal.

A common tendency is to set an almost unreachable standard for success while simultaneously creating a standard for failure that is easy to meet. As a result, you may routinely feel a lot less successful than is necessary. - Tom Newberry

There are some persons who never succeed, from being too indolent to undertake anything; and others who regularly fail, because the instant they find success in their power, they grow indifferent, and give over the attempt. - William Hazlitt

Unless you have courage, a courage that keeps you going, always going, no matter what happens, there is no certainty of success. It is really an endurance race. - Henry Ford

Unless you’re willing to have a go, fail miserably, and have another go, success won’t happen. - Phillip Adams

The men who have done big things are those who were not afraid to attempt big things, who were not afraid to risk failure in order to gain success. - B. C. Forbes

Let no feeling of discouragement prey upon you, and in the end you are sure to succeed. - Abraham Lincoln

Success is blocked by concentrating on it and planning for it. Success is shy – it won’t come out while you’re watching. - Tennessee Williams
