我们不可能穿越每条路，要想取得成功，需要在一条道路上执著前行。我们需要把自己毕生的精力放在一个目标上，其他的则放在其从属地位。
我厌烦做事半途而废。假如这件事是正确的，就放手去做；若不正确，就不要去做。
历史上的伟人并不会长久地观望镜中的自己，以衡量自己的形象，他们已在孜孜不倦的工作中看到了自己。他们有了非凡的成就，因此世人感觉他们如此伟大，并把他们称为伟人。
为了崇高的理想而活着是一种成功的生活。一个人之所以强大，并不是因为他做了什么，而是因为他努力尝试去做什么。
有人说：“恒久地警惕是自由的代价。”换一种说法就是，“不懈地努力是成功的代价。”如果我们没有在工作中全力以赴，而别人是在竭尽全力，他们就会在之后的竞争中超越我们，并将胜利的果实从我们的手中夺走。
成功越来越不依赖于运气和巧合。缺乏自信是导致我们失败的主要原因。
性格是获取成功的不可或缺的主要助力。它是一种明确的习惯，是不断培养和坚定信心的结果。每个人的性格都会受到遗传、环境和教育的影响。除此以外，假如一个人在很大程度上不能成为自我性格的构建者，他就会沦为宿命论者，进而成为环境的失败产物。
与其说人是环境的产物，倒不如说人是环境的构建者。同样的材料，这个人用它建造出宫殿，而其他人只能搭造出简陋的小屋。在建筑师把它们变成其他物体之前，砖依然是砖，泥依然是泥。
想拥有更多就永远不要奢望太多。睿智的人是不会在意他们得不到的东西的。

There Are No Secrets of Success
维尔布德·彼得森 / Wilferd Perterson
There are no secrets of success. Success is doing the things you know you should do. Success is not doing the things you know you should not do.
Success is not limited to any one area of your life. It encompasses all of the facets of your relationships: as parent, as wife or husband, as citizen, neighbor, worker, and all of the others.
Success is not confined to any one part of your personality but is related to the development of all the parts: body, mind, heart, and spirit. It is making the most of your total self.
Success is discovering your best talents, skills, and abilities and applying them where they will make the most effective contribution to your fellow men.
Success is focusing the full power of all you are on what you have a burning desire to achieve.
Success is ninety-nine percent mental attitude. It calls for love, joy, optimism, confidence, serenity, poise, faith, courage, cheerfulness, imagination, initiative, tolerance, honesty, humility, patience, and enthusiasm.
Success is not arriving at the summit of a mountain as a final destination. It is a continuing upward spiral of progress. It is a perpetual growth.
Success is having the courage to meet failure without being defeated. It is refusing to let present loss interfere with your long-range goal.
Success is accepting the challenge of the difficult. In the inspiring words of Phillips Brooks, "Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks. Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle, but you shall be the miracle."
成功毫无秘诀可言。成功是清楚地知道自己该做与不该做的事。
成功不局限于生命的某一个领域。不论是为人父母、妻子、丈夫，还是公民、邻居、工人等，人际关系的层层面面都包含成功。
成功突破了人格的特定部分，关系着人格的健全发展——身体、思想、心灵以及精神，是一个自我完善的过程。
成功是才智的极致发挥，是技艺的最大提高，是能力的最佳锻炼，也是对人类作出的最有效的贡献。
成功是全身心地、尽其所能地为实现目标而努力。
成功的99%取决于态度。它需要爱、欢乐、乐观、自信、沉着、镇定、信赖、勇气、开朗、想象力、进取心、宽容、坦诚、谦逊、毅力及热忱。
成功不以抵达成功之巅为终极目标。它呈一种螺旋式上升，是人类自身不断完善的过程。
成功敢于直面失败，无惧挫折，它不会因眼前的失败而受到困扰，进而影响到长期目标的实现。
成功是接受困难的挑战。菲利普·布鲁克斯有句激励人心的话语：“不要期望工作适合你的能力，而要期望自己的能力适应工作。那样，你的工作不会成为奇迹，而你会是个奇迹。”
成功的99%取决于态度。能力可以慢慢培养，经验可以慢慢积累，从一开始，就应该端正积极正确的态度。

The Secret Door to Success
佛罗伦萨·斯高伏尔·西恩 / Florence Scovel Shinn
A successful man is always asked— "What is the secret of your success?" People never ask a man who is a failure, "What is the secret of your failure?" It is quite easy to see and they are.
People all want to know how to open the secret door to success. For each man there is success, but it seems to be behind a door or wall. In the Bible reading, we have heard the wonderful story of the falling of the walls of Jericho.
We will talk now about your wall of Jericho: the wall separating you from success. Nearly everyone has built a wall around his own Jericho.
This city you are not able to enter, contains great treasures; your divinely designed success, your heart' s desire!
What kind of wall have you built around your Jericho? Often, it is a wall of resentment—resenting someone, or resenting a situation, shuts off your good.
If you are a failure and resent the success of someone else, you are keeping away your own success.
I have given the following statement to neutralize envy and resentment. What God has done for others, he now does for me.
A woman was filled with envy because a friend had received a gift, she made this statement. And an exact duplicate of the gift was given her—plus another present.
