I always say there are two things to be successful.

Everybody is different and I think that we live in a material world. But for me, possessing things is not that interesting. Living in a grand environment to show myself and others that I have wealth has zero appeal. Whatever I own is temporary, since we're only here for a short period of time. It's what we do and produce, it's our actions, that will last forever. That's real value.

Vladimir Nabokov
-

It is the choice of acting or being acted upon.
Stephen Covey
