The Way to Succeed.
Here Is a bit of advice that will go as far as any that was ever paid for: The only way to succeed is to be successful. Doesn’t sound very profound, does It? It Isn’t. It’s about as simple as anything that has ever been printed, and at first sight It may appear Idiotic. But there is a lot In It. The man who
succeeds is the man who brings to a successful termination every minute undertaking of everyday’s activity. The successful man’s life is made up of a myriad of successes. If you let one little Item of your day’s work get by you without satisfying yourself that you have done your best off* It yon are preparing- for a failure. A'million treatises on how to be successful will not help you. The trouble with too many of us is that we are so busy trying to see a great success In the future that we can’t see the chances for little successes under our noses. Heaven Is not reached at a single bound, and neither is success. The only way to succeed is w. to be successful. It is worth thinking over.—St. Paul News.
