Success doesn't have to be huge, and it doesn't have to be all at once. In fact, it will never be all at once. And those little successes? Well, those are the steps we have to take to get to the end goal, which really isn't a giant success at all, but a series of little successes on the way. With the help of a couple of fables -- one African and one from Aesop -- this episode takes a look at what true success really is...and what it takes to keep it going.

Have you ever been bothered by the fact that someone has more than you do? Yeah, me too. But we shouldn't be.

With the help of an old tale from India, this episode takes a look at why envy eats those who have it.
