“Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty, and persistence.”– Colin Powell Related Quotes “Before success comes in any man’s life, he’s sure to meet with much temporary defeat and, perhaps some failures. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and the most logical thing to do is to quit. That’s exactly what the majority of men do.”– Napoleon Hill “Hip-hop is more about attaining wealth. People respect success. They respect big. They don’t even have to like your music. If you’re big enough, people are drawn to you.”– Jay-Z “The first principle of success is desire – knowing what you want. Desire is the planting of your seed.”– Robert Collier
