'Nothing succeeds like success' nghĩa là nếu bạn đã thành công trong quá khứ, bạn sẽ tiếp tục thành công trong tương lai. Quan điểm này lần đầu tiên xuất hiện trong cuốn Realmah, 1868, bởi Sir Arthur Helps. Ngoài ra, có câu đùa 'Nothing succeeds like a parrot with no teeth.' chơi chữ của succeed = sucks seeds :)

Ví dụ
After Alan's brilliant courtroom victory, everyone wanted to be his client. Nothing succeeds like success.

In an industry where nothing succeeds like success, Katrina Kaif, who did not have any significant release since 2013, seems to have been forgotten by the audience and the industry. All the much talked about roles are going either to Deepika Padukone or Alia Bhatt; even newbies like Kriti Sanon and Shraddha Kapoor are more in demand these days; whereas Katrina’s woes have only increased.

Far from abhorring (ghê tởm) the group's brutality, young recruits are attracted by its shock-and-awe tactics against the enemies of Islam. Its exploits on the battlefield - especially capturing huge swathes of territory in Syria and Iraq, and establishing a caliphate - resonate near and far. Nothing succeeds like success, and IS' recent military gains have brought it a recruitment bonanza (vận đỏ).

It's quite normal for people to drift apart when their institutions fragment and decay. We often hear the marriage analogy in the context of the independence debate. If nothing succeeds like success, then maybe nothing fails like failure and there are those who say that the West is in inexorable decline. Maybe rats leave a sinking ship because they aren't stupid. And maybe bankers aren't as stupid as they make out to be either when they're gambling with others' lives, because some are threatening to move their HQs south of the border if Scotland opts for independence.
