incipu r. m GEORGE HIGGINBOTTOM J F you are to get the most out of living and at the same time contribute your maximum to the welfare of others, you should develop aims or goals in life that are designed to accomplish those ends. Those goals will serve to direct your efforts and to lay the basis of your appreciation of the good in life. The formulation of goals, there- fore, is the intelligent way for you to direct your efforts and, hence, your life. It is well to remember that the ability or inability to attain your established goals does not necessarily mean success or failure. We are all victims of circumstances over which we have no control and which play an important role in the materialization of our plans. Nevertheless, you have control over your attitudes — the ability to make necessary changes, determinations, enthusiasm, ambition, initiative — which, when controlled, appraised, and properly redirected, provide the momentum essential for the plans outlined. More particularly, happiness is a goal which can be realized by any individual; for it is accomplished by show- ing a real interest in others, acquiring friends with genuine sincerity, participating in activities as a worthwhile citizen — ever cognizant of the ideals which have made this country great. Therefore, the highest pur- pose in real living is then, to discover and develop yourself and to find happiness and satisfaction in the contribution which you can make to the general welfare of mankind. 8
