Quote: "Your success and happiness lie in you. External conditions are the accidents of life; it's outer trapping. The great, enduring realities are love of service. Joy is the holy fire
that keeps our purpose warm and our intelligence aglow. Resolve to keep happy, and you shall form an invincible host against difficulty." --- Helen Keller Oh yes: a link to the image or you can copy and paste the url into your browser. This week's "Something Extra" : What Is Success? We have all defined success by the jobs we hold, the money we make, most importantly the things we own have defined us at some point in our lives. I am still chasing the dream but in a different way.
All our lives we have been told that we must work toward something. Whether it be good grades, a career, our goal has always been to make it happen and growing up, we have been groomed to chase the dream. Let's be honest! Nobody's mother ever told them, "Honey I want you to waste away your life watching the grass grow." I grew up with wanting success just as much as the next person only I thought I knew what the word success meant. I realize now that I had not the slightest clue what success meant. We have all defined success by the jobs we hold, the money we make, most importantly the things we own have defined us at some point in our lives. I am still chasing the dream but in a
different way. What does the writer mean by "Different way"? Please click on the link or copy and paste the url into your browser to continue reading: Wishing you a day filled with happiness and success! Love, Marlene |
