Thought For The Day
The Art of Success

By Wilferd Peterson

Success is ninety-nine percent mental attitude.
It calls for love, joy, optimism, confidence, serenity, poise, faith, courage, cheerfulness, imagination, initiative, tolerance, honesty, humility, patience, and enthusiasm.

Success is having the courage to meet failure without being defeated.
It is refusing to let present loss interfere with your long-range goal.

Success is relative and individual and personal.
It is your answer to the problem of making your minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years add up to a great life.
