About Me

Laid back, easy to talk to, quiet and shy at times, like to laugh, love animals, like to have fun, like to go bowling, and playing pool.Real success is not merely a matter of getting what you want. After all, a newborn infant with a loud cry can accomplish that.Real success comes from fully being who you are. Real success comes from giving your own unique value to life.The less you need, the more fulfilled and powerful and effective you are. As your peacefulness increases, so does your energy level.Choose not to let the small things anger you, or annoy you, or distract you. And keep in mind that most things are small things.Stop fretting so much about whether or not you're getting your way. Seek instead to relax your judgment, and to find the unique value that is in each moment.You cannot ever fully control everything that happens, and in fact you would not want to do so. Enjoy true success by learning how to take whatever happens, and to make it work for the good of all concerned.~Ralph Marston
