Success can be described in one way as the opposite of failure although there are many shades of grey in between these two concepts. In an earlier post, I talked about Overcoming the Fear of Failure through quotes by famous people.
In this blog, you can read some quotes by famous people about achieving success. Most successful people will tell you that a lot of hard work is involved along with a bit of luck. It is there for the taking to those who put in the effort and know what they want.
Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.
Harriet Tubman
A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him.
David Brinkley
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success.
Henry Ford
Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.
Booker T. Washington
Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.
Abraham Lincoln
Action is the foundational key to all success.
Pablo Picasso
Success is a science; if you have the conditions, you get the result.
Oscar Wilde
One secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.
Benjamin Disraeli
Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.
Dale Carnegie
They succeed, because they think they can.
Virgil
There are also quotes such as "I'm rich because I won the lottery!" or "I inherited my parents' success!" but these apply only to the fortunate few. Read about the people you admire who have achieved success and the methods they used to achieve it. There's a good chance that you can apply the same principles and do likewise. Take a chance and work hard!
