Percy Bysshe Shelley is warning us this morning against complacency.
He is telling us that the moment we start living off past victories instead of present effort, decline begins.
That applies to the athlete reliving high school glory. The businessman who stops adapting. Relationships maintained on old memories instead of current effort. Even nations that assume former greatness guarantees future success.
It is healthy to take self-examinations that keep us moving forward instead of sleeping on old applause.
The Greek term in the Grabber Section means know thyself. You can’t go wrong with a Greek philosopher and an English Romantic.
Big smile on the sun today.
Enjoy…..
