15 Useful Quotes About Success by Nicolars(op): 3:03pm On Dec 18, 2015
1. Never be ashamed of not knowing a thing, but
always be ashamed of not wanting to know

No matter how embarrassing it might look to you,
never feel flustered and skip asking that question. It
is better to ask than not asking. As the Yorubas would
say- he who asks for his way never gets lost


2. Make the best of your past be the worst of your future.
When you achieve a victory, it’s always good to
celebrate but don’t allow it waste your time on
planning for the next challenge. Make sure that
success be the worse of your future.


3. One reason so few people recognize opportunity is because it is disguised as hard work
Nothing good comes easy, 100% true. You have to be
ready to work hard and put in great effort to achieve
that goal. Even armed robbers put a lot of effort
while operating and also plan the operation. You
should be ready to work hard to achieve that goal


4. At first if you don’t succeed, try
doing the way you were told.

Following instructions most times can save us from a lot of mistakes
and failure. If you fail to succeed while doing it your own way, try doing it the way you were asked to do it


5. He who fails to plan, plans to fail
One of the most common adages of life. Very true and real. To be a success in what you want to do, you need to plan for it and work trough that plan


6. Greatness does not depend on size

7. Celebrate in defeat and you will get victory

[b[8. No one is never too old to learn, but many people keep it off anyway[/b]

9. The only thing you have to fear is nothing, not even yourself but fear itself
Yes, in life, you shouldn’t be afraid of anything. Don’t
be afraid of failing, don’t be afraid of a counter part
or the opponent, even yourself. To Christians, fear is
a tool the devil uses to bring the righteous one down.
fear would only waste your time and you loose
focus. never be afraid.


10. It’s the tool a person uses not the tool
he possess that makes the profit

Having a book doesn’t make you pass an exam, nor
having a big capital makes your business profitable,
but it's the way you make use of the possession at
hand that determines your success.


11. It is what you learn yourself and not
what others teach you that matters



12. Do not let a reverse discourage you
Just because you failed once doesn’t give you the
room to stop. As it is also said, failure is a ladder to
success. Let’s take it this way, you are walking, you
trip and fall, what you do next is stand, dust yourself
and keep moving. You should keep that attitude in
what ever you are doing


13. Great works are performed not by
strength but by perseverance

Most times, perseverance is the key. Thomas Watson tried making the bulb ninety-nine times before he could finally succeed. Even a closer look to someone we are familiar with, Seun osewa- founder of nairaland, he had tried two different internet platforms which he failed at. He didn’t give up. So you shouldn’t.


14. Always begin somewhere; you can’t
build a reputation on what you intend to do.

A journey of a thousand mile begins with a step as
they say. Never procrastinate, do it now, not later,
now.


15. Old age is like everything else, to make
a success of it, you’ve to start early
