What Does Success Look Like?

Deep down, most people think that they are not a success. But if we ask them what success looks like, they don’t know. They just know that they don’t have it right now, that where they are right now is not enough to be success. Obviously, more is needed. Since the target is undefined, they never can get there and thus are guaranteed a life of suffering.

That’s one way of looking at life (but not a very useful or joy producing one).

A much more useful and enjoyable way to look at life is to realize that you are already a success. And, that what you are aiming for is more success on top of the success you already have.

If you look at your life through kind eyes you can see that you had a ton of successes today – far more successes than not-successes. That makes you a success.

There is a huge difference in impact between these two labels – “I am not a success” and “I am a success”. So often we choose the former label (which is not even factually accurate) and then we flush our energy, optimism, enthusiasm, magnetism . . .  right down the toilet. – That’s a costly thing to do!

Much Love,
