A rejection is nothing more than a necessary step in the pursuit of success.
You might well remember that nothing can bring you success but yourself.
If you wish to be a success in the world promise everything deliver nothing.
There is nothing more difficult to take in hand more perilous to conduct or more uncertain in its success than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things.
Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines practiced every day.
