Show Bishop Spalding on Success. In a masterly discourse Bishop Spalding recently laid down the laws of success. He told his audience that success lies in working at the thing in which you wish to succeed. It lies in never tiring of doing, in repeating and in never ceasing to repeat; re-peat; in toiling, in waiting, in bearing bear-ing and in observing: in watching and experimenting, in falling back on one's self by reflection, turning the thought over and over, round and about the mind and vision, acting again and again upon it; this is the law of growth. The secret is to do. to do now; not to look away at all. That is the great allusion and delusion; de-lusion; that we look away to what life will be to us in ten years and in twenty years; we look to other surroundings. sur-roundings. The surrounding Is nothing, noth-ing, the environment is nothing.' Or, in other words, it is'not possible to work except in the actual environment. If you do not work where you are, where will sou work? If you do not work now, when will you work? There is nothing for us but here and now. |
