What Is Success?


Success is defined by each of us in different ways.  It should be a personal definition, not shaped by the media or others' opinions.  That definition likely includes components of faith, family and helping those around us.  Success should be viewed as a journey and not a specific destination.  It may, or may not, include financial or materialistic goals.  Success is your own recipe for contentment.  What is your definition of success?  Below are a few good keys in my mind...

  • Always tell the truth
  • Be willing to do your part
  • Get mad but don't be stupid
  • Tell the devil to go to Hell (but nobody else)
  • Be a giver not a taker
  • Seek God
  • Encourage people
  • Pass along your strengths, not your weaknesses, to your kids and others
  • Be kind and tenderhearted
  • Forgive
  • Grant and accept grace
  • Be humble
