We tend to strive for success, yet many of us feel we have lost the mark because we define success in relation to other people’s success. This article teaches us to change our perspective and so find our success.
No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure.
Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts. The road to success and the road to failure are almost exactly the same.
Somebody’s Quote
To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it?
