Success and failure are relative categories. Therefore, do not exult in victory and do not despair after defeat. Accept the changes in life placidly, knowing that autumn and winter come after summer.

About This Quote

When you feel like you’re not making progress in your life, it’s easy to get discouraged. It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that things must be getting worse because you’re not getting better. You may even lose sight of the fact that what you’re doing is working. But, did you know that changing can also be a good thing? If you bet on the idea that things are always getting worse, instead of better, there is a chance that you will never get better, no matter how hard you try.

However, when you accept the idea that things do change and remain positive about any changes in your life, it doesn’t matter if life is always changing, what matters is how much better it gets from day to day. That is success.
