"We are usually more successful when the goal is the reward than when the reward is the goal."
"The best teachers set their expectations high but not so high as to rule out being pleasantly surprised."
Remember, as you plan for the future, that the future does not announce its arrival with a grand trumpet call. It presents itself, rather, in small segments which we call, "for the time being," and it is what we do in these segments, -- what we do "for the time being" -- that ends up as our future.
It is not so much a "road to success" as an "exit ramp to success," lest the road itself become a never-ending journey.
"for the time being" - Insightful and beautifully expressed, Robert.
ReplyDeleteGary, thanks. Today I asked Google AI, "What is the British photographer Gary Swann best known for?" and was so impressed by the reply. Visited your blog, read your beautiful Foreword and left a message. I find myself today more appreciative than ever of our long internet friendship.
