If we surround ourselves with people who are successful, who are forward-moving, who are positive, who are focused on producing results, who support us, it will challenge us to be more and do more and share more. If you can surround yourself with people who will never let you settle for less than you can be, you have the greatest gift that anyone can hope for.

Tony Robbins

Set stretch goals. Don't ever settle for mediocrity. The key to stretch is to reach for more than you think is possible. Don't sell yourself short by thinking that you'll fail.

Jack Welch

Surround yourself with people you like and respect; surround yourself with people you just want to be around and keep making things.

Fred Armisen

So many people live lives of silent mediocrity, convinced that what really matters to them is out of their reach. So they settle.

Jen Sincero

Surround yourself with really good people. I think that's an important thing. Because the people you surround yourself are a reflection of you.

Aaron Rodgers

Surround yourself with good people; surround yourself with positivity and people who are going to challenge you to make you better.

Ali Krieger

Surround yourself with good people, surround yourself with positivity and people who are going to challenge you to make you better.

Ali Krieger

I'm thinking maybe letting the latches burn is the right idea. Let everything burn until there's nothing left but ashes and cool rain.

Rodman Philbrick

Believe in your work, educate yourself about the business, surround yourself with good people, set goals and timetables and stay focused on them.

Vantile Whitfield

I personally believe that the iPod is a frankly corrosive device because it encourages you to surround yourself with your favorites. The whole idea of a playlist is to surround yourself with your favorite things, and the interesting thing is that when you do that, they cease to be your favorites.

Hugh Laurie

Always surround yourself with people who are better than you. If you're hanging around bad people, they're going to start bringing you down . . . But, if you surround yourself with good people, they're going to be pulling you up.

Donny Osmond

I love the idea of things being strict and things being uniform. That's the reason why I surround each collection with humor or irony. I want to make sure that it's not too serious and that there is some element that throws it off because otherwise that would make it really boring. There's always a story that's somewhat fantastical.

Thom Browne

If you surround yourself with the wrong people, if you surround yourself with people that constantly tell you how great you are and never tell you the truth and just tell you what you want to hear, I would imagine it would be very easy to get above yourself.

Johnny Reid

Thinking of that movie 'The Artist'; if anyone ever needed to reach anyone, I'm just thinking they didn't have cell phones, they didn't have Internet, they didn't have email, so I always wonder how it was back then where you had to be home if you needed to get a phone call; otherwise, people couldn't get a hold of you.

Edy Ganem

I had no idea there were so many ways you could burn yourself out.

Chris Evans

People who are artists, they want their music, their art, their acting craft to get out. And once it's appreciated, that seems to be, unfortunately, enough. But you got to take care of your business, surround yourself with good counsel, and that didn't happen.
