I once heard of a CEO who spoke at his retirement dinner to a group of young executives. He said, “I know you want my job, and I’ll tell you how to get it. Last week my daughter was married, and as she walked down the aisle, I realized I did not know the name of her best friend, or the last book she read, or her favorite color. That’s the price I paid for this job. If you want to pay that price, you can have it.” (“How Do You Find God?” Reader’s Digest, April 2002, pg 98)

“You can use most any measure when you’re speaking of success. You can measure it in a fancy home, expensive car or dress. But the measure of real success is one you cannot spend – It’s the way your child describes you when talking to a friend.” Martin Baxbaum
