School Of Thought Poem by Leena Amwaalwa

Success is not measured by how much wealth we own.
Success is not the type of education or qualifications to our credit.
Success is not the amount of money in our bank accounts.
In fact, if you can count it then it is not success.
For, you see, success lies in how we treat others.
Success is an investment that we make every time we stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves.
Success is speaking up for those who cannot speak up for themselves.
Success is doing something for someone who is not in the position to compensate us.
Success is imparting knowledge to others out of the goodness of our hearts.
You see, success is believing that we are not perfect but we aspire to be better and do better.
Success is forging ahead knowing that it is not easy but we have to keep going.
Success is in failing today and regrouping to try again tomorrow.
