The Measure of Achievement
is not the size of one’s income. That may be only
the measure of one’s extravagance. The real
Measure of Achievement is the DIFFERENCE
between your income and your outgo. A SINGLE
DOLLAR by itself seems a trifle, yet it is the col
lective effect of many single dollars SPENT that
holds so many men down to the dead level of
mediocrity, and the collective power of many single
dollars SAVED that is lifting others to SUCCESS
The man who despises a single dollar seldom commands a
thousand.
