What is success?


A lone fisherman sat on a stretch of beach. His single fishing pole was planted in the sand. Along came a businessman on vacation. "Why don't you have two poles so you can catch more fish?" the businessman asked. "Then what would I do?" asked the Corsican. "Then you would take the extra money, buy a boat, get nets and a crew, and catch even more fish." "Then what would I do?" asked the fisherman. "Then, you could move up to a fleet of large ships, go wholesale, and become very rich," said the businessman. "Then what would I do?" asked the Corsican. "Well, then you could do whatever you want!" shouted the businessman.... And the Corsican replied, "I am."

Success is a journey, not a destination.
Success is not what one has accomplished in the eyes of the world but instead success is helping others and doing what is just and good.
One has achieved success who has lived well and laughed often.

If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams,
and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined,
he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.

--Henry David Thoreau


"Don't be afraid your life will end; be afraid that it will never begin."
