II hadn't thought of that. | was sell

But cannot say | am exactly content

That was precisely the point.
He was comparatively young man
and had not nearly developed his tuii
ability to do things The fact that his
ability to do difficult things had caught
up with the requirement of his task
was proof that his powers were grow

When a difficult duty becomes easy
select more responsible one. ThaI
is the only way to grow.
One of the chief pleasures of tie
is the joy of accomplishment. Ana
when one comes to realize that be

strong man to run race. he feels
himself to be growing.
Where do the forces come from:
We do not know. The mystery OF
growth, whether it be of the wheat or
of the tree or of the mind will always
be mystery. We know only the
facts of growth, not the why.
To illustrate:
Darwin tells us that the first eagle
couldn't fly, but it wanted TO fly ana
tried to fly. Generations of eagles
wanted and tried to fly until through
the mysterious processes of evolution
the eagle developed pinions and pow
ers-and few.
So of the human capacity.
Desire and trial long continued will
develop inherent faculties or even
new powers-powers and faculties un
dreamed of-until finally the man is
able to do the things he wants TO do
and be the things he wants TO be,
Nothing is better settled by modern
psychology than that fact.
Keep on growing. Select the hard
task When you have mastered that.
try another that is more difficult and
master that.
Be bold enough to follow the lines
of development of your growing pow
ers. To do so spells both success and
satisfaction. Because
While your vigor lasts your joy of
doing will last.
Keep on growing.
