Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.

I think it's always a really stupid thing to base your achievement on someone else. I just want to base it on myself... do something that I can be proud of, and then I'll be happy.

Fortunately during my career I have won more or less everything, so I need to enjoy it to have the right motivation.

If you are not happy with yourself, even the loftiest achievements won't bring you much satisfaction.

In terms of achievement, the pride is very important to me. It keeps me going every day. The money is always second to me.

I couldn't do everything in the first or second day; it took me years to be able to get to the achievement that I've had. I wasn't perfect from the beginning.

The idea of accumulating ambitions or achievements didn't get much further than wanting to do the next exciting thing. I really haven't set out with any list of achievements.

I learned from a very young age that if I pursued the things that truly excited me, that they would reward in more important ways, like happiness.

I've achieved a certain amount of success and now I'm thinking about the good things I can do.

Not only will this make you treat each moment more preciously, but you will be more patient with yourself and with others, recognizing that there are millions of moments on the path to any worthwhile achievement.
