The odds of hitting your target go up dramatically when you aim at it.

The problem with most failing businesses is not that their owners don’t know enough about finance, marketing, management, and operations -- they don’t, but those things are easy enough to learn -- but that they spend their time and energy defending what they think they know. My experience has shown me that the people who are exceptionally good in business aren’t so because of what they know but because of their insatiable need to know more.

In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

Men are born to succeed, not fail.

The successful person has the habit of doing the things failures don't like to do. They don't like doing them either necessarily. But their disliking is subordinated to the strength of their purpose.

In order to succeed you must fail, so that you know what not to do the next time.

If you want to achieve things in life, you've just got to do them, and if you're talented and smart, you'll succeed.

Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want.

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There's no point in being a damn fool about it.

I do not like to repeat successes, I like to go on to other things.

You can do anything you wish to do, have anything you wish to have, be anything you wish to be

I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.

The dictionary is the only place where success comes before work.

Many a one has succeeded only because he has failed after repeated efforts. If he had never met defeat, he would never have known any great victory.

I honestly think it is better to be a failure at something you love than to be a success at something you hate.
