Most men would have to wait until a big beginning could be made, and so would most likely never make a beginning at all. But Conwell's way is to dream of future bigness, but be ready to begin at once, no matter how small or insignificant the beginning may appear to others.

ing the associations of the place and the effect of these associations on his mind; but Conwell is always the man who is different--“And here at Gethsemane and at the Tomb of Christ, I pray especially for the Temple University.” That is Conwellism! That he founded a hospital--a work in itself great enough for even a great life is but one among the striking incidents of his career. And it came about through perfect naturalness. For he came to know, through his pastoral work and through his growing acquaintance with the needs of the city, that there was a vast amount of suffering and wretchedness and anguish, because of the inability of the existing hospitals to care for all who needed care. There was so much sickness and suffering to be alleviated, there were so many deaths that could be prevented--and so he decided to start another hospital. And, like everything with him, the beginning was small. That cannot too strongly be set down as the way of this phenomenally successful organizer.
