A startup is a company working to solve a problem where the solution is not obvious and success is not guaranteed.

Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying the basic fundamentals.

An entrepreneur assumes the risk and is dedicated and committed to the success of whatever he or she undertakes.

You know, it's nice being an overnight success after 50 years.

Obstacles are necessary for success because in selling, as in all careers of importance, victory comes only after many struggles and countless defeats.

We must see others' struggles as our own, and their success as our success, so we can speak to our common humanity.

Nobody travels on the road to success without a puncture or two.

Success in life is founded upon attention to the small things rather than to the large things; to the every day things nearest to us rather than to the things that are remote and uncommon.

I worked half my life to be an overnight success, and still it took me by surprise.

If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view and see things from that person's angle as well as from your own.

Success is the maximum utilization of the ability that you have.

I planned my success. I knew it was going to happen.

Be yourself. Follow your instincts. Success depends, at least in part, on the ability to 'carry it off.'

You've got to eat while you dream. You've got to deliver on short-range commitments, while you develop a long-range strategy and vision and implement it. The success of doing both. Walking and chewing gum if you will. Getting it done in the short-range, and delivering a long-range plan, and executing on that.

Nothing good comes in life or athletics unless a lot of hard work has preceded the effort. Only temporary success is achieved by taking short cuts.

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.

Unless life is one giant rap battle, you don't need to freestyle your way to success.

Find a good teacher that will keep the game fun. Work hard and don't be afraid to have success or disappointment. That is what golf is all about.

Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan, in which we must fervently believe, and upon which we must vigorously act. There is no other route to success.

Teach success before teaching responsibility. Teach them to believe in themselves. Teach them to think, 'I'm not stupid'. No child wants to fail. Everyone wants to succeed.

Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.

I can't imagine a person becoming a success who doesn't give this game of life everything he's got.

The penalty of success is to be bored by people who used to snub you.

I've learned that success comes in a very prickly package. Whether you choose to accept it or not is up to you.
