Jonathan Yardley Quotes

I love to work. I absolutely love to work.

Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion.

The more you love what you are doing, the more successful it will be for you.

Experience shows that success is due less to ability than to zeal.

Love your work. Work hard for it.

My entire career proves to me that if you believe in what you're doing, you will reap the benefits.

To be successful in anything, you have to have a passion for it, and that leads to being enthusiastic and demanding. I didn't have it for history. So I wouldn't have been a good teacher in that area. But I had it for basketball. And that's what coaching is at every level: it's about teaching.

Every time I watch someone's dedication, I get inspired.

Find something you love to do. Work it to the bone. And you'll be successful.

The only way to be successful in what you do is to love what you do.

You have to have a lot of passion for what you do... because if you don't, any rational person would give up.

I think passion and discipline are wonderful, complementary things.

I think anyone's success depends on working hard, Industriousness and Enthusiasm, enjoying what you are doing. You can't work your best if you're not enjoying what you are doing. No way you can force yourself to.

You should pursue your passion. If you're passionate about something and you work hard, then I think you will be successful.

In the end, it’s not about failure, it’s about how much you love what you do.

My secret is that I have never thought there is a secret to anything in life. Passion. Love. Drive. Work. Work. Work. Dull but true.

We almost have to force or drive ourselves to work hard if we are to reach our potential. If we don't enjoy what we do, we won't be able to push as hard as we need to push for as long as we need to push to achieve our best. However, if we enjoy what we do and if we're enthusiastic about it, we'll do it better and come closer to becoming the best we can be.

I think that self-discipline has to be accompanied by passion.

Any man can do what he has to do. But doing it like you love it? That is what takes it to a whole different level. A champion does it like he loves it, even when he doesn't.

Ultimately, it was always my dream to be here in the NBA. I just took it serious. I knew if I put in the work I could eventually get here.

In 10 months, I was replaced from three films. That's when I realised I need to take my work seriously. It's a blessing I didn't get things easy. If I had, I wouldn't realise the value of success.

Football is my biggest passion in life, and I've worked really hard to get here. It's so important to me, so I can't sit and watch things not go in the right direction.

That's the thing, though: It doesn't matter how much you've done or who you've played with. Do you have the passion?

In each profession, you need to feel passion for that in order to give it your best performance. Football is my passion.

You have to make sure you love what you do more than anything.
