SUCCESS , THE ROAD, THE JOURNEY
We rise early only to sleep late. Someone said this life is vanity upon vanity and I cannot agree any less. Many of the things we pursue; the dream job, luxury car, beautiful spouse, everything has an expiry date and one day, no matter how long, they will fail. So what's life for?
Life has many things to offer but some people get carried away, chasing after shadows and forgetting the real. We live for the moment.
What really is the measure of a life well lived?
Most people judge success by what they see with their physical eyes but I think it goes beyond that. Success is not in the accumulation of wealth, of precious stones or collection of expensive artworks. It goes beyond that.
Success is impact
The people who are known successes in their fields are those who have made meaningful impacts on the lives of those around them.
Success is impacting the world with the investment of your personality
It is pouring out yourself to see to it that things and people get better. Some of the best inventions that were ever made came about because people sat down and thought about how they can make thongs around them better, easier. That is the way to think.
Success is the product of solution proffered
Once an individual can solve a problem in a particular field of endeavor, he is deemed to have succeeded, no matter even if he makes profit from it.
Successful people are those who can make right predictions
Indeed, success is a reward for right predictions. Everyone bows to the one who always gets it right.
“One day, a black man will rule the United States of America!”
Rings any bell? Of course it would. The world never forgets anyone who was able to read the writings on the sky. Many of the richest people in the world today are there at the top because they were able to predict rightly how the scale would tilt, they were able to see how the economy would change and they keyed into it. What do you see?
Success is leaving the world better than you met it
Have you found something, a problem that gives you the creeps, a problem you have a strong dislike and disgust towards? Have you thought perhaps you could change it? That may be where you success would start from.
The best life to live is a life full of impact.
