Define success Quote by Laura Schlessinger

“You have to define success in your own way. What maintains your dignity and integrity and what is your life's plan; where do you want to put your efforts? I could be richer and more famous, but I would have to give up things that are of infinitely more value.” quote by Laura Schlessinger
