A Quote by Thomas S. Monson

Without a goal there can be no real success. — © Thomas S. Monson
Without a goal there can be no real success.
It is necessary to prepare and to plan so that we don’t fritter away our lives. Without a goal, there can be no real success. One of the best definitions of success I have ever heard goes something like this: success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal. Someone has said the trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never cross the goal line.
The real thing is not the goal, the real thing is the beauty of the movement. The real thing is not reaching, the real thing is the journey. Remember, the real thing is the journey, the very traveling. It is so beautiful, why bother about the goal? And if you are too bothered about the goal, you will miss the journey, and the journey is life - the goal can only be death.
Passion for a goal doesn't guarantee success, but without it, you can't even begin.
Never reject an idea, dream or goal because it will be hard work. Success rarely comes without it.
A goal or decision without a deadline has no urgency. It has no real beginning or end.
The Art of Success . . . 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 having the courage to meet failure without being defeated. It is refusing to let present loss interfere with your long-range goal. . . . Success is relative and individual and personal. It is your answer to the problem of making your minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years add up to a great life.
Happiness, wealth, and success are by-products of goal setting, they cannot be the goal themselves.
I think real true success is when, yes, you have reached the goal, reached yours, but it's how many others you have helped along the way.
I want to die, stripped, by myself, of all fantasies. That's the goal. I want to feel what is real, at the end, and only what is real. Grip fiercely with my eyes all that is around me--the people of my intimate life, the objects in the room, without the evasions of fantasies.
I have to be below 140 to really look good. I have to work my legs like crazy. Actually, do you want my real goal? My real goal's always too low. I love the way I look at, like, 128.
Success is when the whole gets enlightened. When you become one with the whole, that's the real success. To be one with the whole is the real success. And when that success is achieved, then you really enjoy that growth - that growth of your awareness which makes you one with the whole. That is what you have to know, is to become your whole. You are just a fragment, a segment, a cell. You have to become the whole and that can be done only through this connection.
I don't see success as the goal. Obedience is the goal.
Learn how to set goals. That's the key to everything. That includes designing your own success. You define what the goal is, it's not somebody else's goal, it's yours.
Success is not winning the World Cup. It may be a goal in your mind but success is having a team that is improving all the time.
If you have achieved any level of success, then pour it into someone else. Success is not success without a successor.
Every movie that I've had to really knock down the door for has been an enormous success for me. Not just like a financial success but a real personal success.
