A Quote by John C. Maxwell

Without failure there is no achievement. — © John C. Maxwell
Without failure there is no achievement.
I'm often asked how I define "success." It's an overused term, but I fundamentally view this elusive beast as a combination of two things - achievement and appreciation. One isn't enough: Achievement without appreciation makes you ambitious but miserable. Appreciation without achievement makes you unambitious but happy.
The devotion of thought to an honest achievement makes the achievement possible. Exceptions only confirm this rule, proving that failure is occasioned by a too feeble faith.
The idols of today are unmistakable - self-esteem without achievement, sex without consequences, wealth without responsibility, pleasure without struggle and experience without commitment.
Achievement without fulfillment "High achievement without fulfillment is a broken way of life."
Genius is neither learned nor acquired. It is knowing without experience. It is risking without fear of failure. It is perception without touch. It is understanding without research. It is certainty without proof. It is ability without practice. It is invention without limitations. It is imagination without boundaries. It is creativity without constraints. It is...extraordinary intelligence!
Achievement must be made against the possibility of failure, against the risk of defeat. It is no achievement to walk a tightrope laid flat on the floor. Where there is no risk, there can be no pride in achievement and, consequently, no happiness. The only way we can advance is by going forward, individually and collectively, in the spirit of the pioneer. We must take the risks involved in our free enterprise system. This is the only way in the world to economic freedom. There is no other way.
I had a lot of successes, but what really made me fearless was my complete failure at Zidd-Davis. Once you've lived through that, you know you can survive, and you're not as scared... There's nothing to build confidence like real achievement, but also like real failure.
To LOVE without condition, to SMILE without reason, and to SERVE without end... THIS is achievement
I hate failure and I am in love with achievement.
Persistence can change failure into extraordinary achievement.
All significant achievement comes from daring from experiment from the willingness to risk failure.
But all actors go through the process, it's hit and miss, you have achievement and failure.
The fact that you are free is not your achievement, but rather a failure on our side.
There is no such thing as failure; everything is just a stepping stone to a greater lesson or achievement.
Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.
We will sometimes have defeats in life but you can have defeats without being defeated, you could fail without being a failure. When you see failure and defeats as merely part of the process to get to when.
