“Don’t aim at success. The more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one’s personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one’s surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it.” – Victor Frankl

Great Quotes
“Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he has been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to be just people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, and most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is just like an old time rail journey … delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.” ― Jenkin Lloyd Jones

“Enthusiasm means everything. Not just a little. Everything. If you are involved in some kind of project right now, or launching any personal endeavor, your enthusiasm (or lack of it) will directly determine how successful this undertaking will be. If you are not excited at the core of your being by it, drop it right now. If you are excited at the core of your being, demonstrate that in everything you think and say and do.” – Neale Donald Walsch

Great Quotes
“Do it now. You become successful the moment you start moving toward a worthwhile goal.” – Samuel Johnson
Great Quotes
“In the last several years, while meeting and spending time with people who have become inordinately successful, I have observed several common traits among them. Two of those traits stand out. One is they have a calling, which they have discovered and are implementing. The other is they have made mountains of mistakes in the process of becoming ‘successful.’ THE GLEAMING MOUNTAIN OF SUCCESS IS ACTUALLY A PILE OF TRASH – a pile of the mistakes we have made. The difference between the successful and the troubled is not error-free living; it is that BY DISCOVERING AND IMPLEMENTING A LIFE CALLING, THE SUCCESSFUL STAND ON THEIR PILE OF TRASH, while the troubled sit under theirs.” – Dave Ramsey
