"Why should we be in such desperate haste to succeed, and in such desperate enterprises? If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer"
- Henry David Thoreau
About this Quote
This quote by Henry David Thoreau motivates us to take a go back as well as assess our lives. He is suggesting that we need to not be so determined to be successful and tackle such adventures. Instead, we must make the effort to listen to our very own inner guide as well as follow our own course. Thoreau is suggesting that if we don't keep up with our peers, it may be because we are listening to a various drummer. He is urging us to be real to ourselves as well as not be swayed by the pressures of society. We ought to put in the time to review our own values and also objectives and also not be so desperate to keep up with the crowd. By doing this, we can discover our own unique path as well as cling ourselves.
"Only as long as a company can produce a desired, worthwhile, and needed product or service, and can command the public, will it receive the public dollar and succeed"
"I think what it takes to succeed remains the same. You have to have a real love of your sport to carry you through all the bad times, you still want to go ski even when things aren't working. You must have a commitment to work hard and to never give up"
