Vidal Sassoon

I measure success by how many people love me.

Eighty percent of success is showing up.

Success tends to go not to the person who is error-free, because he also tends to be risk-averse. Rather it goes to the person who recognizes that life is pretty much a percentage business. It isn’t making mistakes that’s critical; it’s correcting them and getting on with the principal task.

I was determined to succeed in what I loved to do. I wasn’t going to let my disability stand in my way.

If past history was all that is needed to play the game of money, the richest people would be librarians.

Whenever you see a successful person you only see the public glories, never the private sacrifices to reach them.

Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time.

I don’t think people get to be successful unless they have very strong egos.

Action is the foundational key to all success.

Can success change the human mechanism so completely between one dawn and another? Can it make one feel taller, more alive, handsomer, uncommonly gifted and indomitably secure with the certainty that this is the way life will always be? It can and it does!

There’s always something about your success that displeases even your best friends.

Success is only meaningful and enjoyable if it feels like your own.

My whole life is about winning. I don’t lose often. I almost never lose.

To be successful you must accept all challenges that come your way. You can’t just accept the ones you like.

All you need is ignorance and confidence and the success is sure.
