Success is tricky to deal with, both professionally and in your personal life.

Success will ruin your life.

This is true enough, but success is the next best thing to happiness, and if you can't be happy as a success, it's very unlikely that you would find a deeper, truer happiness in failure.

The worst part of success is, to me, adapting to it. It's scary.

Until you have formed the habit of looking for the good instead of the bad there is in others, you will be neither successful nor happy.

Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you.

If you're not happy before you're successful, you're going to be miserable when you do become successful because all your problems just get magnified.

In a lot of ways, success is much harder than I thought it would be. I figured that you'd get here and then everything would be happily ever after. But, it's hard work, almost harder once you're successful because you've got to maintain it.

The toughest thing about success is that you've got to keep on being a success.

I'm aware that success can overwhelm you. The perception of you can be elevated to such a status that it's not you any more.
