Samuel Smiles Quotes

He who goes step by step always finds himself level with a step.

Progress however, of the best kind, is comparatively slow. Great results cannot be achieved at once; and we must be satisfied to advance in life as we walk, step by step.

Sometimes making progress a step at a time is better than no progress at all.

Tiny steps will get you to your goal months and months sooner. A little is better than a lot.

No great thing is created suddenly.

I believe in taking things slow, one step at a time.

Do not be impatient with your seemingly slow progress. Do not try to run faster than you presently can. If you are studying, reflecting and trying, you are making progress whether you are aware of it or not. A traveler walking the road in the darkness of night is still going forward. Someday, some way, everything will break open, like the natural unfolding of a rosebud.

True progress is slow but sure.

I think people get intimidated, and they think results should happen right away. Like I said earlier, the body can only change so fast, and so when you're doing it right you just have to keep at it and keep up with a balanced program.

Success is a fruit of slow growth.
