SUCCESS - my word for 2010

I was trying to come up with a motivational word for 2010.  I thought about it for a few days and could not really come up with anything.  Then yesterday I looked at the wall in my office and there it was right in front of me the whole time!! My best friend bought me a framed print  with a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson for my office that reads as follows:

Success:

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 the meaning of success.

                                                 Ralph Waldo Emerson

Here's to all of our success in 2010!
