Success is an act of subtraction

Thoughts of the day

Happy Friday. Today, a short thought by Toni Morrison, on the measure of success:

"For me, success is not a public thing. It's a private thing. It's when you have fewer and fewer regrets."

An even more important premise, considering how publically success is shared nowadays, how it tends to be quantified, and confirmed by higher numbers, when, in fact, it may not be an act of addition, but one of subtraction.

More thoughts on regret on Monday. Have a good weekend.
