"Failure is not our only punishment for laziness; there is also the success of others." More In Success "Whenever we seek to avoid the responsibility for our own behavior, we do so by attempting to give that responsibility to some other individual or organization or entity. But this means we then give away our power to that entity."― M. Scott Peck "The only success worth one’s powder was success in the line of one’s idiosyncrasy… what was talent but the art of being completely whatever one happened to be?"― Henry James "Being best is a false goal, you have to measure success on your own terms."― Damien Hirst
