Success

Most of us long to be successful… and in imagination we usually are. Whether the dream ever becomes a reality depends on your self (a great deal of hard work and a bit of luck often do the trick). But the first of all you must define your aims. Decide just what you want. Discover your own particular bent. Find the occupation that suits you. Whether your sphere is large or small is immaterial; the important things is to be interested in what you are doing. Never make the mistake of thinking that life would be marvelous if you were doing something different. This leads to the square-peg-in-a-round-hole mentality, and to useless resentment because things are not going your way.

These are all kinds of success—when u have chosen the kind you intend to attain, go ahead. Remember that one small, hard won, success is often sufficient to set you on the right track. It gives you a sense of personal value, and is a spur to greater effort.
