More From Orison Swett Marden

Success is how you collect your minutes. you spend millions of minutes to reach one triumph, one moment, then you spend maybe a thousand minutes enjoying it. if you were unhappy through those millions of minutes, what good is the thousand minutes of triumph? it doesn't equate... life is made of small pleasures. good eye contact over the breakfast table with your wife. a moment of touching a friend. happiness is made of those tiny successes. the big ones come too infrequently. if you don't have all those zillions of tiny successes, the big ones don't mean anything.

Would a minute have mattered? no, probably not, although his young son appeared to have a very accurate internal clock. possibly even 2 minutes would be okay. three minutes, even. you could go to five minutes, perhaps. but that was just it. if you could go for five minutes, then you'd go to ten, then half an hour, a couple of hours...and not see your son all evening. so that was that. six o'clock, prompt. every day. read to young sam. no excuses. he'd promised himself that. no excuses. no excuses at all. once you had a good excuse, you opened the door to bad excuses.

I take 10 minutes. i focus on what i'm most grateful for. then i do a little prayer for three minutes, a blessing within myself through god, and then out to my family and friends and all those i serve. then my last three minutes are the three things i want to achieve most. at the end of 10 minutes, you are wired. everything in your life gets filtered through that.

What is the value of having millions of people in iraq not having a repressive regime? what is the value of having the iraqi regime not shooting at uk and us aircraft almost every day? what is the value of the iraqis having a free press? what is the value of the foreign minister of iraq going to paris, calling for an end of the gadhafi regime and citing iraq as a model, as an example, that in fact a freer political system can exist in that part of the world?

When an acquaintance goes by i often step back from my window, not so much to spare him the effort of acknowledging me as to spare myself the embarrassment of seeing that he has not done so.
