Mr. Rogers and Success
The thing I remember best about successful people I've met through the years is their obvious delight in what they're doing...and it seems to have very little to do with worldly success. They just love what their doing and they love it in front of others.

Is Your Aim Too High?
The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.

Your Wild and Precious Lfe
I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down
into the grass, how to kneel down in the grass,
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields,
which is what I have been doing all day.
Tell me, what else should I have done?
Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?
Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?
—Mary Oliver from her poem, The Summer Day
