Success is the doing, not the getting; in the trying, not the triumph. Success is a personal standard, reaching for the highest that is in us, becoming all that we can be. If we do our best, we are a success.

About This Quote

A quote from David Niven, "Success is the doing, not the getting; in the trying, not the triumph." Success is a personal standard that each of us can reach. And if we do our best, we are a success. The trouble with success is that it is often taken as an end in itself. The true measure of a person’s success lies not in what they have but in what they do with what they have been given.
