“We're running into a lot of new problems today because of what we emphasize in this culture. The word 'success' to the average person means earning a lot of money and having a home, two cars, children in college. Success to me is entirely different to what success is to the average person.

If this is what you really want, you're successful to yourself. But to be successful to your culture means to sell yourself short of what you really want”
