Accomplishment is noted, recognized, and cheered;
It’s how we choose our heroes, adulation speared.
It normally means something good, no matter what;
What has been tried has been successful, like as not.
Accomplishment in life has been the middle name
Of anyone who has achieved some sort of fame.
But that is for the famous only, as a rule;
To you, it may be what you’ve done at work or school.
Accomplishment can also be a private thing;
Where no one knows what you have done, or anything.
That’s when you’re satisfied with something you have done–
And you sit back, alive with knowledge you have won!
So young or old, or in between, your efforts build;
You’ll find accomplishment most often is self-willed.
Accomplishment can be a habit effort sets;
You’ll find the more you win the easier it gets.
