Dr. Steve Stephens - How to Build a Great Life

An excerpt from
Lists to Live By: The First Collection: For Everything that Really Matters

WHAT IS SUCCESS?

To laugh often and love much;

To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;

To earn the approval of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;

To appreciate beauty;

To find the best in others;

To give of one's self;

To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;

To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation;

To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived...

This it to have succeeded.

POET, ESSAVIST, AND PHILOSOPHER
