If people are really excited about their music, and that's their primary motivation, then that comes through in demo tapes. That's the most important ingredient.

Talent is important. But the single most important ingredient after you get the talent is internal leadership. It's not the coaches as much as one single person or people on the team who set higher standards than that team would normally set for itself. I really believe that that's been ultimately important for us.

Mike Krzyzewski

Motivation is the catalyzing ingredient for every successful innovation. The same is true for learning.

Clayton Christensen

The long run is the single most important ingredient to marathon success.

As a former high school teacher and a student in a class of 60 urchins at St. Brigid's grammar school, I know that education is all about discipline and motivation. Disadvantaged students need extra attention, a stable school environment, and enough teacher creativity to stimulate their imaginations. Those things are not expensive.

Bill O'Reilly

Gratitude is the single most important ingredient to living a successful and fulfilled life.

Jack Canfield

Home is the first school for us all, a school with no fixed curriculum, no quality control, no examinations, no teacher training

Charles Handy

The most important single ingredient in the formula of success is knowing how to get along with people.

Theodore Roosevelt

Where I grew up, learning was a collective activity. But when I got to school and tried to share learning with other students that was called cheating. The curriculum sent the clear message to me that learning was a highly individualistic, almost secretive, endeavor. My working class experience...was disparaged.

Henry Giroux

Motivation is the single most important factor in any sort of success.

Edmund Hillary

I imagine a school system that recognizes learning is natural, that a love of learning is normal, and that real learning is passionate learning. A school curriculum that values questions above answers...creativity above fact regurgitation...individuality above conformity.. and excellence above standardized performance..... And we must reject all notions of 'reform' that serve up more of the same: more testing, more 'standards', more uniformity, more conformity, more bureaucracy.

Tom Peters

If I'd loved my chemistry teacher and my maths teacher, goodness knows what direction my life might have gone in. I remember there was a primary school teacher who really woke me up to the joys of school for about one year when I was ten. He made me interested in things I would otherwise not have been interested in - because he was a brilliant teacher. He was instrumental in making me think learning was quite exciting.

Colin Firth

Only in mathematics and physics was I, through self-study, far beyond the school curriculum, and also with regard to philosophy as it was taught in the school curriculum.

Albert Einstein

Since there is no single set of abilities running throughout human nature, there is no single curriculum which all should undergo. Rather, the schools should teach everything that anyone is interested in learning.

John Dewey

The single most important ingredient in the recipe for success is transparency because transparency builds trust.

Denise Morrison

I discovered Deborah Ellis's books in the school library after my head teacher encouraged me to go beyond the school curriculum and look for books I might enjoy.
