Success vs. Joy

 

- XVIII -

Success Follows Joy

 

T o return to the recurring theme – “what comes first, success or joy?” Many believe that once they succeed, they will be happy. But I don’t believe success, as commonly understood, is in any way linked to happiness. I strongly believe that commitment to joy will create its own success. Seek joy and success will naturally follow. I have learned that when I wanted success and was willing to sacrifice joy for it, I eventually got neither.
