Remember “Successories”?

Does anyone remember those lame stores named “Successories” that you could always find in malls? They had all the sad motivational crap…posters, awards, etc plastered with motivational sayings? I remember when first getting into business I noticed a direct relationship between the presence of that crap in a business and how likely they were to fail. Basically, the more of this junk you had the greater the likelihood you'd fail. Always thought it was funny as this junk had the exact opposite result as intended. Probably a good reason why you don't see these stores around any more. 😉
