Success..

Yesterday I was having a chat with a friend of mine who had tried laboriously to succeed in the GMAT exams... we poised on the word 'Success'. I remembered a quote of Emerson that I had picked from a poster in college.


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 the world 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.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson
