I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has had to overcome while trying to succeed.

Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.
Success is not measured by what you accomplish, but by the opposition you have encountered, and the courage with which you have maintained the struggle against overwhelming odds.
Success is about enjoying what you have and where you are, while pursuing achievable goals.
Success is measured by your discipline and inner peace.
Success is a wonderful thing, but it tends not to be the sort of experience that we learn from. We enjoy it; perhaps we even deserve it. But we don't acquire wisdom from it.
Success has always been easy to measure. It is the distance between one's origins and one's final achievement.
Success is a completely abstract thing - it has no bearing on daily life, family matters, the matter of artistic creation, but it can affect grace, and if I lose that, I really have gained nothing from success.
I define success as being comfortable with yourself and your life. And that is about as good as it gets, really.
The only true measure of success is the ratio between what we might have done and what we might have been on the one hand, and the thing we have made and the things we have made of ourselves on the other.
I am convinced that success is not measured by what you get out of life, but by what you give back.
