At the end of the day, it's not about what you have or even what you've accomplished. It's about what you've done with those accomplishments. Its about who you've lifted up, who you've made better. It about what you've given back" (23).

About This Quote

Being successful in life is not about what you have or what you've accomplished. Rather, it's about what you've done with those successes, who you've helped and how you've used them to help others.

It's about sacrificing your time, money, energy and even your health in order to make the world a better place for others. You may start this journey with nothing, but that’s all right. The journey is what matters, not the destination.
