Different meaning of success
I recently had a chat with a close friend, an amazing man who I admire in so many ways, he is a successful businessman and building a multimillion-dollar business.
Yet, I found myself questioning his success when he mentioned his headaches and reliance on strong medication. It struck me when he said: “You still have your health.” Was he being ironic, or judgmental, or was it just me and my perception?
True meaning of success
I have learned that true success can’t come from the outside world. It’s about feeling worthy, understanding your values, and being clear about who you are, what you stand for. It’s about finding peace and harmony within yourself. Something priceless that we all have access to but few truly discover.
We are often sold the idea that success comes from a great job, career, or business, and we measure it by income, prestige, or material possessions.
But how often do we stop and dare to question how we truly feel and whether we are fulfilled?
You are the success
We are trying to chase success in a big way but often ignore little acts of kindness, genuine connections, good laughs, loving smiles or just a little hug of compassion that actually makes a big difference in our lives.
And sometimes, we have to lose everything to rediscover ourselves and the true meaning of success.
So let me ask you:
What does success mean to you?
Who are you chasing to be successful?
Stop chasing success when you are the success already! Find the real you because you are so worth it
