Success is what you do with your ability. It's how you use your talent.
The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do well, and doing well whatever you do without thought of fame. If it comes at all it will come because it is deserved, not because it is sought after.
I don't think success is harmful, as so many people say. Rather, I believe it indispensable to talent, if for nothing else than to increase the talent.
Besides the practical knowledge which defeat offers, there are important personality profits to be taken.
'What is success?' It isn't only about winning, but playing in a certain way.
What is success? I think it is a mixture of having a flair for the thing that you are doing; knowing that it is not enough, that you have got to have hard work and a certain sense of purpose.
It is a career that can be enhanced or destroyed by success.
It's how you deal with failure that determines how you achieve success.
The big talent is persistence.
Timing and arrogance are decisive factors in the successful use of talent.
