Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as you ever can.

It is your duty to find yourself.

Think "tomorrow."
Make today's efforts pay off tomorrow.

Free the imagination.
You are capable of more than you can imagine -
so imagine the ultimate.

Strive for lasting quality.
"Good enough" never is.

Have "stick-to-it-ivity."
Never, never, never give up.

Have fun.
You're never truly a success until you
enjoy what you are doing.

My all-time favorite poem

I have loved this poem for years!  I used to have it hanging up a long time ago.

"What is Success?"

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children,
to earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others,
to leave this work a bit better
whether by a healthy child, a garden patch,
or a redeemed social condition;
to know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.

By Ralph Waldo Emerson

It's Easier

It's easier to settle for average
than strive for achievement.

It's easier to be saturated with complacency
than stirred with compassion.

It's easier to be skeptical
than successful.

It's easier to question
than conquer.

It's easier to rationalize your disappointments
than realize your dreams.

It's easier to belch the baloney
than bring home the bacon.

One Step Further
Do more than exist: live.
Do more than touch: feel.
Do more than look: observe.
Do more than read: absorb.
Do more than hear: listen.
Do more than listen: understand.
Do more than think: reflect.
Do more than just talk: say something.

Believe in your product.

People who have given up are ruled by their darkest mistakes, worst failures, and deepest regrets. If you want to be successful, then be governed by your finest thoughts, your highest enthusiasm, your greatest optimism, and your most triumphant experiences.
