Money doesn't make me tick. This definition of success doesn't make me tick. Managing some of the biggest stars in the world doesn't make me tick. Making my family proud makes me tick.
— Troy Carter
Most people assume you change with success.
— Troy Aikman
The bigger you become as a player and the more success you have as a player, the spotlight definitely becomes brighter.
— Tristan Thompson
Success has got nothing to do with being happy. I've been very rich, and been unhappy, and I've been very poor, and been happy.
— Tricky
I think there's an awful lot of noise about the Church being persecuted but there is a more real issue that the conventional churches face - that the people who are really driving their revival and success believe in an old-time religion which, in my view, is incompatible with a modern, multi-ethnic, multicultural society.
— Trevor Phillips
Immigration and openness to refugees is an important part of our country's success and, quite honestly, to Uber's.
— Travis Kalanick
When you're working hard and doing all you can to achieve your goals, anything that can give you an edge is powerful and will streamline your path to success.
— Travis Bradberry
I'm just a Chicago actor who's a playwright. Even with the success of 'August,' the people in town who come to our theater know me by sight, because they've seen me onstage so much.
— Tracy Letts
I never assumed I would have that commercial success, so it was a total surprise. And honestly, I never assumed that it would ever happen again.
— Tracy Chapman
I was never carried away by success and have learnt from the failures. Satisfaction is what I crave for; fame and wealth are just by-products.
— Tovino Thomas
My family played a huge role in my success, a huge role.
— Tori Bowie
I think as a player there's a sense of urgency every single year that this is the year we're going to have success and do the things we're excited about.
— Tony Romo
The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you're in control of your life. If you don't, life controls you.
— Tony Robbins
Private dreams are the most powerful. You have to dream of success to make it happen, and if you don't believe in yourself, nobody else will. But that doesn't mean you have to go around telling everyone about it.
— Tony McCoy
If you look at the success of snowboarding in the Winter Games and how that's brought a more youthful edge to the Olympics in general, they don't have that with the Summer Games. They don't have anything that's drawing in a younger viewership.
— Tony Hawk
The more decisions you make, the better, statistically, your odds of success are. And what I also learned was, it doesn't matter: anything can be fixed. When you're directing, you can agonize, but you can't indulge. Stuff has to happen.
— Tony Goldwyn
The secret to success is good leadership, and good leadership is all about making the lives of your team members or workers better.
— Tony Dungy
I believe success is achieved by acquiring and developing talented, respected, and credible individuals, none of which applies to Skip Bayless.
Whatever fame or success we have right now came strictly from us playing. As long as we focus on music and not trying to be stars, I think we'll be okay.
— Trombone Shorty
You know, I sure hope this alt-left movement doesn't succeed because, I sure don't want to live in a world where success is punished - and ambitions are thwarted by big government. That is not the American way - and, it's certainly not a path for success.
— Trish Regan
If I had made another 'Maxinquaye,' I'd have had ten times as much success. I ain't going down that path, because that way you're totally controlled by people around you. I don't want to be controlled.
I have no inflated ideas about success anyway.
— Trevor Dunn
More than half of people who leave their jobs do so because of their relationship with their boss. Smart companies make certain their managers know how to balance being professional with being human. These are the bosses who celebrate an employee's success, empathize with those going through hard times, and challenge people, even when it hurts.
You don't necessarily have to have your movie made to have success.
— Travis Beacham
After the success of 'August,' there were people saying I should change my life. And maybe I should have bought a yacht and traveled the world instead of returning to Steppenwolf to act in and write plays. But I'm from the Midwest, and that's what we do: We go back to work.
One thing that success has taught me is censorship.
— Tracey Emin
There's no such thing as an overnight success.
— Tory Burch
I started to practise shooting more seriously, more than once a week. I wasn't very good at it before, but I got a lot better. I've also become a little bit stronger on the tracks, too, which has increased my chances of success.
— Tora Berger
My definition of success is to live your life in a way that causes you to feel a ton of pleasure and very little pain - and because of your lifestyle, have the people around you feel a lot more pleasure than they do pain.
There's no abiding success without commitment.
People should decide what success means for them, and not be distracted by accepting others' definitions of success.
— Tony Levin
You get early inoculation against the idea of success if you're a poet. When I published my first collection of sonnets, I sold about five copies; now kids study them for A level. Wanting to be successful in that other world of money or fame is not interesting. Poetry isn't like that, and it never has been.
— Tony Harrison
When I heard Martin Luther King's speech, 'I Have a Dream,' I reflected on the fact that much of the success of that movement was driven by the unity of the church.
— Tony Evans
With the success of 'Spiderwick,' it's allowed me to be able to have the freedom to really be able to tell the stories that I really wanted to tell, that I've always wanted to tell.
— Tony DiTerlizzi
If head coaches weren't important to the success of a team, then owners wouldn't fire them all the time.
Obviously, Steve Nash making the NBA and becoming a two-time MVP gave us the hope that if we work hard, we might have a chance to just be in the NBA. Seeing his success gave us hope.
The subscriptions were working so well, and on top of that, we saw the success of Netflix and Spotify and thought, 'We can create a similar kind of experience for books.'
— Trip Adler
There's a certain type of success you can have where it means nothing. You're just becoming someone in Hello! magazine and no one knows what you actually do any more... the only way to escape that is to go back underground.
I define success as being comfortable with yourself and your life. And that is about as good as it gets, really.
— Treat Williams
Successful people often exude confidence - it's obvious that they believe in themselves and what they're doing. It isn't their success that makes them confident, however. The confidence was there first.
I never questioned I would have any trouble doing what I wanted to do. I'm not talking about getting to a certain position - or to success. It was just that I knew I wanted to act, and that I would make my living that way. Having the unconditional support of your parents is really freeing.
— Tracy Pollan
As I started to consider a career in music, I hoped for success, truthfully. I didn't imagine anything that would amass the level of the first record, but I hoped that I would be able to sustain a career.
I was just tapped on the shoulder from above and told to write these songs, as opposed to wanting to be a success in the music business.
— Townes Van Zandt
I think with my journey so far, it never felt like an overwhelming, overnight success story. I think that's good for me because I really got to take my time.
— Tori Kelly
I do think there is magic that made Uber possible, made that disruption possible, made that innovation possible, and was critical to its success. I believe you can still have the magic that underlies that and yet be a compliant company.
— Tony West
Success comes from taking the initiative and following up... persisting... eloquently expressing the depth of your love. What simple action could you take today to produce a new momentum toward success in your life?
The path to success is to take massive, determined action.
The kind of theater that I do is sort of 'narrative realism,' which I think in the broadest sense is legitimate to say is mainstream. I mean, in a certain sense, Suzan-Lori's plays have had mainstream levels of success. But Suzan-Lori is in some ways not a narrative realist.
— Tony Kushner
Steroids do not guarantee you're going to have success. I think a lot of people think that they will, but they don't.
— Tony Gwynn
What did you have the potential to do? And if you came close to that, if you maximized that, then you were a success in God's eyes. So many of us do things that the world would say is successful, but we have so much more potential.
