Kirstin Maldonado Quotes

That should be the measure of success for everyone. It's not money, it's not fame, it's not celebrity; my index of success is happiness.

Real success is not, like, materialistic. It's being where you want to be when you want to be; just living your life how you feel; having an ultimate goal and being able to accomplish it.

Success is always something completely different to people. I feel like I've succeeded, if I'm doing something that makes me happy and I'm not lying to anybody. I'm not doing that now, so I feel really good about myself.

I want to find that defining moment that you're satisfied and you've done what you want to do in your life.

The only thing that I am ambitious about is to live a good life. Full stop.

It's more important for me to feel content than to be famous.

The goal isn't to be successful; it's to be happy. And so it doesn't matter if I'm doing things in New York or teaching high school or I drop it altogether and sell coffee. The goal is to be happy, and people and relationships are what makes you happy.

Monetary success is not success. Career success is not success. Life, someone that loves you, giving to others, doing something that makes you feel complete and full. That is success. And it isn't dependent on anyone else.

There aren't a whole lot of things I want out of life. My bucket list is extremely short: Achieve the success in the industry I want, and get married. If I achieve both of those, I can die completely stoked. I don't need anything else.

I don't want to make money, I just want to be wonderful.

I'm very ambitious. But my overall goal, above ambition, is that I want to be happy with what I'm doing, and I want to be happy with myself.

Just because you got money doesn't mean you're gonna be happy, and just 'cuz you can buy everything in the world doesn't mean you're gonna find your purpose.

If you had one goal, and that was to feel good, you would never again need to hear another word from anyone. You would live successfully and happily and in a way of fulfilling your life's purpose ever after.

I'm vain enough to think that I've made a successful life. I've had everything I've ever wanted. You can't beat that.

The money, the fame, if that comes, that's fantastic. But at the end of the day, my aim is to go to sleep at night content and have a purpose, and to know that I'm not swapping my life for money and some mind-numbing boring job, making easy money and protecting my brain.

I'm glad I haven't lived in vain.

Success is following the pattern of life one enjoys most.

Success isn't measured by money or power or social rank. Success is measured by your discipline and inner peace.

Money doesn't buy happiness. But happiness isn't everything.

I don't need to be wildly famous for my life to make sense.

After I can be happy with knowing that I did what I wanted to do.

But my happiness in this world - my level of peace - is never going to be dictated by acting.

Success is important only to the extent that it puts one in a position to do more things one likes to do.

Follow your passion. Nothing - not wealth, success, accolades or fame - is worth spending a lifetime doing things you don't enjoy.

Success is not how many zeroes your bank account has. It's about making the most of the life you have.
