DO YOU WANT SUCCESS?
O YOU w ant to m ake a success of
your business life, o r do you put
th a t second to having a good
tim e? D on't complain if you can’t
have both. T he g irl who ru n s around
from p arty to p arty Is not going to get
to h er work In th e best sta te for doing
it well. H er mind is not clear, her body
is not alert. She is tired.
A re you willing to do the u n in terest­
ing p a rt of your Job well, or do you
slu r w hat you don't like in It? E very
Job has its grind side. B ut to succeed
you. m ust m ake th n t grind w orth while
by doing it well. It is p a rt o f the price
you pay for success.
You must keep in good physical con­
dition if you w ant success. You need
proper rest, enough steep and healthful
food. You need exercise in th e open
air. Keeping fit is p a rt of th e price
you m ust pay for success.
A num ber of girls regard ar, office as
a so rt of m atrim onial bureau. Their»
first Idea is to be fascinutlng to the
m ale elem ent. B ut if th a t is w hat you
are after, don’t say you w ant success
in- your business, and do n 't be su r­
prised if you see o th er girls who do
w ant success get advancem ent while
you stay put.
Success is a big thing. T he success­
ful woman is not afraid of losing her
Job. She know s th a t h er work is so
good th a t an em ployer will he lucky
to get her, or th at, if she Is in bust
ness fo r herself, she is sure of results.
B ut success is not an accident.
