“It's what you've done with your time, how you've chosen to spend your days, and whom you've touched this year. That, to me, is the greatest measure of success.”

“The best way to measure how much you've grown isn't by inches or the number of laps you can now run around the track, or even your grade point average-- though those things are important, to be sure. It's what you've done with your time, how you've chosen to spend your days, and whom you've touched this year. That, to me, is the greatest measure of success.”

“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).”

“The true measure of spiritual growth is not how much you've learned in the past year but how much you've grown in holiness.”

“And you may blame me for your feelings, but it isn't fair to blame me for how you've chosen to behave.”

“It's not about what you've done; it's how you've experienced whatever has happened to you. Matt Lawrence in The Overachievers”
