About Me
To laugh much, to win respect of intelligent persons and the affections of children, to earn the approbation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to give one's self, to leave the world a little better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition., to have played and laughed with enthusiasm, and sung with exultation, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived--this is to have succeeded. , - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Doing it without fear and learning from it if you failed.

What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?
- Robert Schuller

My imperfections and failures are as much a blessing from God as my successes and my talents and I lay them both at his feet.
- Mahatma Gandhi quotes

Ivonne,

I just love your definition of success. That's the same thing I try to tell people over and over again. They must find their purpose.

Finding your purpose will unleash your greatness

Great Profile


"I've come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that's as unique as a fingerprint - and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you." Oprah Winfrey, O Magazine, September 2002
