Why is it that when we, as a culture, think of success we define it by merely financial stature? Is there not more to be said about success than just money? I mean think about it. If money were truly the definition of success, then shouldn’t all the people who have it be happy? Then why aren’t they?
Success, to me, is far greater than the limitations of money alone, although yes it does include it. I actually think that money is only the by-product of something much greater. The definition of success as I see it is success in all areas of life: mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually…or as others may understand it as the mind, the heart, the body, and the soul.
Not sure where you stand? Then ask yourself…am I living my highest potential? How are my relationships? Do I love my job? Am I happy? Am I healthy? Do I speak well of myself and others? Would these not ALSO be the definition of success? Yes. You see, success isn’t just one thing, it is everything. When all things are in balance and harmony with each other, then I would say you have reached true success.
And just so you know, by the end of this year of blogging, my goal is to BE that true definition of success.
