"For true success ask yourself these four questions: Why? Why not? Why not me? Why not now?" ― James Allen Topic(s): Success More From James Allen "The more intense the nature of a man, the more readily will he find meditation, and the more successfully will he practice it." "In all human affairs there are efforts, and there are results, and the strength of the effort is the measure of the result." "A man is not rightly conditioned until he is a happy, healthy, and prosperous being; and happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his surroundings." More In Success "I think the success of a talk show depends on how true it is to the personality of the person hosting it. The shows I really admire, like ‘Oprah’ and ‘Ellen,’ are distinctively like their hosts, so I think my show will be successful only if we try to stay consistent to my own sense of myself."― Jane Pauley "Success comes when people act together; failure tends to happen alone."― Deepak Chopra "Ask yourself the secret of your success. Listen to your answer, and practice it."― Richard Bach
