“What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.” - Pericles
What does it mean to invest? Your first thought probably relates to money.
But what if we all thought of investment as an act of giving and pouring into the lives of others? What if we became more others-oriented rather than self-oriented?
Goals: less of me, more of You.
less of me, more of you.

What really is success? How should we classify our actions and the outcomes of our actions?
Success
To laugh often and love much
To win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children
To earn the appreciation of honest critics
endure the betrayal of false friends
To appreciate beauty
To find the best in others
To leave the world a bit better
whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition
To know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
[Often attributed to Elisabeth-Anne Anderson Stanley]
I think I might add, and to live a life that bring glory to God.
Success.

Cold sparks are seconds from burn out
Everyone has an hourglass
To turn back upside down
We watch the days fly
While all the years try
Telling us something
Don’t waste a whole life
On just a half try
It’s all or nothing
