According to the authors’, “Success in life is a reflection not only of enterprise and willpower but also of chance and early upbringing, and that compassion isn’t a sign of weakness but a mark of civilization,” (15) which means that in order for one to be successful in life they need to be ready and willing to engage into difficult action with great determination. In other words a successful person is always determined and ready to do the impossible to accomplish their goal even if that includes facing challenges. Everyone can succeed in life; compassion is all one needs. Through the quote the authors’ are trying to show that if you really want to do something you’ll do whatever it takes to accomplish your goal. This quote reminded me of something my softball coach would tell me. He would say,” Never say you can’t do something. The second you doubt yourself is the second you already decided you want to fail,” this phrase motivates me as a college student to keep pushing for success, no matter how difficult it may get because in the end all the hard work will be worth it. The idea of accomplishing success illustrates the notion of creating change as they both tie into making an effort to better something
