But father —he won’t come;
Mother back with a Paris gown
AVhich cost a tidy sum;

Helen’s here from the shore;
Archie’s back from camp, and say,
He won’t go any more.

Add now to New A’ork’s din;
Ev’ry one’s coming ’a k but pop;
You see he never went;
In town |he old chap had to stop
And dig up ev’ry cent.

, Ihe other day I was asked to write
something which I had no idea how to
word.
’ I asked four people what to say.
, Three of them answered: “I’d say
, something like this’’—and then made
_ some vague and indefinite suggestion.
The fourth took a paper and pencil
. and wrote his suggestion in definite
; finished form.
The fourth is an unusually suc
i cessful young business man. I won
■ der how much of his success he owes
• to the habit which this little incident
shows he possesses—the habit of de
, finiteness.
I believe that the habit of indefin
ite thought is one of the most com
mon weaknesses that keep men and
women from accomplishing things.
It is so much easier to think and
, talk and plan and live in “glittering
. generalities,” to make up one’s mind
to say “something like this.” than
1 to plan undertakings in vague and i
sketchy outlines, than to be definite !
and accurate in one’s thoughts and
words and plans.
Os course the indefinite and gener
al idea must come first, and the defin
iteand concrete afterwards, but the ’
trouble with many people is that they
never get beyond that first stage.
The indefinite idea is the powder—
the concrete plan or thought is the
shot. And the reason so many of us
make such racket, but never hit the
mark, is because we have powder but
no bullets in our guns.

for definiteness that he always meets
any general statement by saying,
“Such as,” which is his way of re

AA’hen I was out driving the other
day I passed two farms where pro
duce was offered for sale.
On the sign at one farm was print
ed :
“ALL KINDS OF FA RAI PRODUCE
SALE.”
At the other place was a sign which
read:
‘ ‘ FOR SALE—FAR Al PRODUCE
FRESH EGGS
CELERY
SQUASHES
CIDER
APPLES
LETTUCE.”
The broad generalization of the first
sign made no appeal to me.
[ The definiteness of the second re
minded me that I wanted some cele
ry and brought out my pocket hook.
So definiteness won out as it always
does.
' Train yourself to habits of defin
ite thought and statement, to definite
ness in your desires and aims, and to
the making of definite, concrete plans
and you will have immeasurably
sharpened the tools with which you are
seeking to carve out a successful life.
