Success and Action

Posted January 7, 2016 - Victim, Victor

— Conrad Hilton —

  There is nothing I can add to this other than the fact that success is usually found in giving something one more try. Do you give up too easily or do you continue to fight and move forward?

Few Wants

My riches consist not in the extent of my possessions, but in the fewness of my wants.
