STEPS TO SUCCESS
Stop making good excuses. Even if you think you have a good excuse, don’t use it. Especially do not use it upon yourself. You may be able to make it go somewhere else, but yi u cannot uso it at home without suliering in your own self-respect. Opportunity lies around you. Move on and possess it. And you will not need the good excuse. A good excuse, prepared in advance, is an invitation to failure. It is success you want, not excuses. One opportunity improved is worth a million good excuses. —W. E. Barton.
