Everyone wants to succeed in life. Yet success rarely comes easy. Life can be challenging. It helps to look to men and women who have successfully navigated life’s troubles for nuggets of wisdom to give us the strength and courage to push through whatever difficulties we face.

Here are ten (10) quotes that I’ve found to be particularly valuable for their insights:

“Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain — and most fools do.” -Dale Carnegie

Complainers, scoffers, and critics know how to get attention but they rarely rise above the level of mediocrity. In fact, they are more likely to bring others down than they are lift others — or even themselves — up. If you want to succeed in life, don’t be the kind of fool described here by legendary self-help guru Dale Carnegie.

“Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.” -King Solomon (Proverbs 4:7, KJV)
