[名人演说]论成功
Success , Wilferd A. Peterson 论成功
There are no secrets of success. Success is doing the things you know you should
do. Success is not doing the things you know you should not do.
Success is not confined to any one part of your personality but is related to
the development of all the parts: body, mind, heart, and spirit. It is making
the most of your total self.
Success is ninety-nine precent mental attitude. It calls for love, joy,
optimism, confidence, serenity 1, poise 2, faith, courage, cheerfulness, imagination
, initiative, tolerance 3, honesty, humility 4, patience, and enthusiasm.
Success is not arriving at the summit of a mountain as a final destination. It
is a continuing upward spiral of progress. It is a perpetual growth.
Success is having the courage to meet failure without being defeated. It is
refusing to let present loss interfere 5 with your long-range goal.
