Good Quote from Arnold H. Glasow

“Success isn’t a result of spontaneous combustion.  You must set yourself on fire”.

~Arnold H. Glasow

Good morning YP’s! I really like this quote because it talks about success not happening over night, as much as we would like it to. I remember a conversation that I had with a student that I tutor, and he mentioned to me that he thought he could accomplish his goals, by just doing enough to get by. I might have felt the same when I was his age, but as I see it now, success is from consistently good actions everyday, not just sometimes.

I believe that in order for success to be possible, we have to wake up every day, put our hardhat on, and grind. We might run into obstacles and things that we don’t want to do, but things have to get done regardless. So if success is 26 mile marathon, get your running shoes, and be ready to take each step. There are no bikes, or vehicles that are going to come and rescue you! No one every said success was going to be easy. With that note, make it a great day YP’s :)
