Success is always something completely different to people. I feel like I've succeeded if I'm doing something that makes me happy and I'm not lying to anybody. I'm not doing that now so I feel really good about myself.

Well success does not mean doing well.

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.

Success is always something completely different to people. I feel like I've succeeded if I'm doing something that makes me happy and I'm not lying to anybody.

It was so draining. Going to parties to rub elbows with so-and-so and act like it's no big deal when really all I was doing was hoping I'd have the success they had.

You've achieved success in your field when you don't know whether what you're doing is work or play.

The two most important requirements for major success are: first being in the right place at the right time and second doing something about it.

Success is a journey not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome.

While I was doing stand-up I thought I knew for sure that success meant getting everyone to like me. So I became whoever I thought people wanted me to be. I'd say yes when I wanted to say no and I even wore a few dresses.

No student ever attains very eminent success by simply doing what is required of him: it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction.

Success follows doing what you want to do. There is no other way to be successful.

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.

You do the work and you want people to see it but um while I'm doing the work the result doesn't matter at all to me. Ultimately I don't I don't care whether the film is - you know - some big giant box-office bonanza and I don't care if its a complete flop. To me when a film gets made and it's actually finished it's a success. They're all a success in their own way.

You never achieve success unless you like what you are doing.

Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to cut all sources of retreat. Only by doing so can one be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as a burning desire to win - essential to success.

Success is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well.

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.

I've always been really athletic which really helped because when I first started doing the training for Bulletproof Monk it required so much strength that if I didn't have a base I don't really know what I would have done.

I've completed the first part of my preparations without injury problems. My speed is good and I'm doing lots of volume for strength.

It's a wonderful side effect of what we're doing to give someone the strength to come out of the closet to their family or simply present themselves aesthetically in a way they feel happy with whether or not their friends are going to be allowed to like them anymore.

I've been doing a lot of drama but I feel like comedy is my strength.

Then when I went to Iraq and saw the strength and character the men and women in our military service exhibit every day and their belief in what they're doing I knew I wanted to get that on film and share it with everyone. They are my inspiration.

The type of cuisine I do especially after being on 'Iron Chef' for several years is a lot of global cuisine. My strength has always been Mediterranean cuisine across the board from Morocco Spain Italy Greece France but I think now I'm doing a lot of very different cuisines all the time.

It is wonderful what strength of purpose and boldness and energy of will are roused by the assurance that we are doing our duty.
