Take action and you will be successful. Even if you fail the first few times along the way don't give up. Like look at the people in the NBA. Somebody came from the D League, the secondary NBA. They failed to get the NBA the 1st time and now they're in the NBA.

This quotes means people that are succeding in something good try their best to maintain thier postion then one day they make a mistake. They dont matter how huge the mistake was they try their best to make up for that mistake. If you want to go after something and you messed up dont give up keep trying until you get it right.

This quote means that the key to you being successful is for you to keep moving ans work hard instead of quitting or giving up. If you notice all the successful people in life yeah they go there hard times but they dont give up on a fight yhey continue to strive and do their thing. For example music artists they come out with alot of songs but none of them became a hit they dont give up because none of them got #1 they continue to write their songs and put the work in.

This quote means if you take action you will reach to success. Quitting is not going. Staying with your goal is were your going to reach that stanza of being at the top. The attempt to combine wisdom and power has only rarely been successful and then only for a short while. If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you'll achieve the same results. To be successful you have to be selfish, or else you never achieve. And once you get to your highest level, then you have to be unselfish. Stay reachable. Stay in touch. Don't isolate. A successful person is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks that others throw at him or her. If you hear a voice within you say "you cannot paint," then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced. Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you.

this quote means that successful people should never stop what there doing and keep going on. that one mistake is not going to stop them from giving up. its just when i was little and was very FANATIC, to put on the stove. but diddnt know how to, so i will try and try until one day i got it right and was proud of myself for never giving up on a success.i made sure that nothing stopped me from giving up and from not learning anything. and like they say "you always learn from your mistakes' so in all this quote is trying to say that never give up on your success and to always stay focused on it because you will soon get it right that nothing will always be perfect. i agree with everyone that commented so far and do believe that you should never give up.

I think this quote means that success does connect with action cause the most successful people in life always have a better chance of getting the best jobs and promotions in their life's.Successful people keep moving even when they make mistakes because for some people failure is not an option so they always strive to do there best without ever thinking about giving up.An example of this is I was never a good Math student in elementary school but i decided that i won't give up regardless of how hard Maths seems at the time now i think i have it under control and knowing that even when i move on to college and it gets harder i won't give up!

taiyabarnes said...

This quote means, to be successful you work hard and you have to be confident, persistent, and you have to be a hard worker. It means, that you have to keep going even when you make numerous mistakes. You can't give up and have to finish what you started from beginning to end.

"Success seems to be connected to action. Successful people keep moving.They make mistakes, but they don't quit"means that in order to become successful keep trying even though you make mistakes everyone does. One example is the sixth grade NYS tests the first time i saw it i got nervous,but i made some mistakes and i still passed the test. I thought it was just luck but i still kept trying to remember everything i learned from my teachers. I failed some of my tests this year but i keep trying my best that sometimes i pass and i would feel proud of myself.

This quote means that being successful has to do with your decisions,behaviors,etc.Also when you're successful,you can get overwhelmed by different things and not even notice it, and then make a drastic mistake that will affect your future in a very bad way.

In my own words this quote means:
"The way someone acts shows the way of your success. People who succeed keep going. They often do something wrong, but they fix it by moving on, not quitting."
An example of this is like in mrs. T-hall's speech this morning, she was successful by working hard, not giving up and moving on. SDDhe was late in class, but she made up for it by receiving an amazing 3.9!

This quote means that succeful people does not just talk but they move , and the fact that they are moving it makes it easier for them not to give up or quit even when they make mistakes.
An example of this quote is a emergency room doctor. they have patients that is on the verge of dying like evrey day but they keep trying to save the persons life and if they are not able to save one person they dont give up and quit there job they just try harder with the next patient. which makes them an seccesful doctor.

This quote means to be successful in anything you have to work hard for it.That people that are successful never give up they have to finish the job.If they mess up they don't stop or give up they keep going.That is what this quote means to me.
In my own words this would say:
To be successful you must put the work in.Never stop keep going.No matter what mistakes don't quit.For example:
If you have a hard job the deadline is in a week and you mess up don't stop and quite keep going and come out on top.

I think this quote means that if you want sucsess to happen, you have to take action! If your action fails you, take another action to fix it!
If you have a bad grade, and you do an extra credit assighnment(thats taking action), but if the extra credit didnt give you much points, you failed, but by toping the failed action,(doing another extra credit) you will sucseed.

Success is connected with action because if you want to be successful you cant lay in your bed all day you must make a move and actions must take place in order for you to be successful.
For example Martin Luther King Jr. would of never been successful in ending segragation if he sat in his bed all day and just said segragation is unfair he had to make a move to end what he believe is unfair.

This quote means that to be successful it takes work. It's connected with action because you can't just sit there and except to accomplish anything by doing nothing. Of course there is going to be mistakes but you have to get through them all and keep trying. You always keep moving to get closer to success but obstacles will always occur at one point. For example if I want to be a doctor I would have to study and learn the whole steps it takes. I can't sit around doing nothing. It takes work and studying for me to reach that level.

i think this quote means that in order to be successful you have to never give up no matter how much times you fail. For example say if you want to get into a professional sport if a lot of people keep telling you can't make it you have to ignore than and try as hard as you can to get into the professional sport.

This quote means that your actions speaks louder than your words.It is aying that inorder for you to get somewhere or in other words to accomplish something you have to work for it even though sometimes you mess up. you can't just sit down and expect something to happen without even taking steps and you can't keep on saying that your going to do this and your going to do that and than a month later you still have'nt done a thing. All you are doing is talking, stop talking and go out there and make something of your self because your actions speaks louder than your words.
For example i want to achieve a 90 average in ela but guess what i mess up all the time because i do not do all of my homework. But that does'nt stop me i keep on trying and i know that when i have accomplish that goal i will feel good because i work hard for it and i will know that i have SUCCESSED.

Sarah kerr said...

This quote means that succes doesnt come from sitting around and doing nothing and in order to be succesful you need to take control of your situation and work extremly hard.and even if you mess up you shouldnt give up or let it stop you. An example of this quote is like how I want to become a lwyer and I watch court room shows and I practice working cases by playing court room games but even when I mess up I dont let it stop me

I think that this quote " success seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don't quit" means that to be successful you have to work hard you cant just sit around and be successful. For example to be a successful basketball player you have to constantly practice, work on your shooting, dribbling, playing etc. You cant just sit on a sofa and think about being a good player, you have to take action and practice. When your trying to become successful and something goes wrong you cant quit you have to keep trying and never give up.
