“WHAT IS SUCCESS”
VALUE OF IMPLICIT TRUST. “What is Success?” was the question Mr Anthony Weymouth set out to discuss in a recent broadcast talk. “When Emerson said that 'self-trust is the first secret of success’ he was telling us a good deal more than appears on the surface,” Mr Weymouth said. “For any man who trusts himself implicity has got an asset which is bound to carry him wherever he wants to go. Confidence in ourselves can only come when we know that the machine which guides us —that is to say, our mind —is running well. And it is this self-confi-dence which produces self-trust. But it comes back to this, that success is really a question o.f ideals. Material prosperity is only one side of it. Do you believe that riches and great possessions constitute success? Or do you consider that these things are merely trappings for comfort —like a hot-water bottle on a cold night—and that success itself is something much deeper? If you do, I must confess at once that I’m with you all the time?’
