When we are sure that we are on the right road there is no need to plan our journey too far ahead. No need to burden ourselves with doubts and fears as to the obstacles that may bar our progress. We cannot take more than one step at a time.

Make measurable progress in reasonable time.

I progressed through so many different styles of music through my teen years both as a player and a vocalist particularly the jazz and pop of the early 20th Century.

Technology has a shadow side. It accounts for real progress in medicine but has also hurt it in many ways making it more impersonal expensive and dangerous. The false belief that a safety net of sophisticated drugs and machines stretches below us permitting risky or lazy lifestyle choices has undermined our spirit of self-reliance.

Technological progress has merely provided us with more efficient means for going backwards.

I have always believed that 98% of a student's progress is due to his own efforts and 2% to his teacher.

Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal or ideal.

If I had permitted my failures or what seemed to me at the time a lack of success to discourage me I cannot see any way in which I would ever have made progress.

Success is steady progress toward one's personal goals.

Without continual growth and progress such words as improvement achievement and success have no meaning.
