“To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one’s self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived—this is to have succeeded.”
- Bessie Anderson Stanley
One of my favorite quotes to get me thinking, when I lose sight of all I have been able to achieve.
Success is yours to define. I fear though that often we judge or grade ourselves far too harshly; and well before we have taken full account of what we have done along the way.
Think of a life you have touched, and move forward today with that little success tucked neatly in your pocket like a lucky penny. Think of it fondly - you have earned a moment in the sun.
Good Morning, Greater day.
Greater you - is a little success shared with everyone.
