Success is not what you have done compared to what others have done. Success is what you have done compared to what you were supposed to do.

Tony Evans

To claim - to claim repeatedly - that you are innocent of what it is claimed by others that you have done, or might have done, or are in some quarters strongly suspected of having done, is never enough unless others, numerous others, will say it for you.

Joyce Carol Oates

Success isn't what you've done compared to others. Success is what you've done compared to what you were made to do.

Lecrae

Do not look at the faults of what others have done or not done; observe what you yourself have done or not done.

Gautama Buddha

I understand true life doesn't happen when I constantly gaze backwards, mulling over all the injustices others have done or I have done to others.

Mary E. DeMuth

I'm very, very thirsty for knowledge. Just because I'm good at something and have found success doesn't mean I'm done. I'm not even close to being done. I don't know if I ever will be done learning.

Jennifer Lawrence

My mother drew a distinction between achievement and success. She said that 'achievement is the knowledge that you have studied and worked hard and done the best that is in you. Success is being praised by others, and that's nice, too, but not as important or satisfying. Always aim for achievement and forget about success.

Helen Hayes

Do not think about whatever service you may have done for others; think about what you may have done to offend them. Don't forget what others have done for you; forget what others have done to offend you.

Zicheng Hong

It has always been my thought that the most important single ingredient to success in athletics or life is discipline. I have many times felt that this word is the most ill-defined in all of our language. My definition isas follows: 1. Do what has to be done; 2. When it has to be done; 3. As well as it can be done; and 4. Do it it that way all the time.

Bobby Knight

If your're not having a very good time with your life, its because you haven't done much for others. You may have done many things but you havent done much for those around you.

Frederick Lenz

I prefer to be remembered for what I have done for others, not what others have done for me.

Thomas Jefferson

Let no man be sorry he has done good, because others concerned with him have done evil! If a man has acted right, he has done well, though along; if wrong, the sanction of all mankind will not justify him.

Henry Fielding

I don't think you ever feel a success really because everything could always be done better than you've done it.

John Mortimer

True success is what you have done compared to what you could have done.

Myles Munroe

At first people refuse to believe that a strange new thing can be done, then they begin to hope it can be done, then they see it can be done--then it is done and all the world wonders why it was not done centuries ago.
