Intro Notes:

 

What is success?

 

How do you personally define success?

 

I ask every guest on this show the same question—How do you define success? 

 

Answers vary. So, I wanted to go to the experts. I have a book my sister gave me, “The Book of Positive Quotations.” I pull from this book often.

 

There is a chapter on Success. Here are some of the notable quotes that stood out to me about success:

 

“The successful person is the individual who forms the habit of doing the what the failing person doesn’t like to do —Donald Riggs

 

“Nature gave men two ends—one to sit on, and one to think with. Ever since then man’s success or failure has been dependent on the one he used most.” —George R. Kirkpatrick

 

“If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imaged, he will meet with success unexpected in common hours.” —Henry David Thoreau

 

“Success follows doing what you want to do. There is no other way to be successful.” —Malcolm Forbes

 

“Always bear in mind that your own resolution to success is more important than any other one thing.” —Abraham Lincoln

 

“He did it with all his heart, and prospered. —2 Chronicles 31:2

 

“Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.” —Robert F. Kennedy

 

“Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.” —Henry David Thoreau

 

“Try not to become a man of success, but rather a man of value.” —Albert Einstein

 

“I realized early on that success was tied to not giving up. Most people in this business gave up and went on to other things. If you simply didn’t give up, you would outlast the people who came in on the bus with you.” —Harrison Ford“

 

The secret of success is constancy of purpose.” —Benjamin Disraeli

 

“Success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of knowing you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.” —John Wooden

 

Hope that clears up the definition of success for you. Hint: it varies.
