My Perception Of Success

I'm actually happy. It's been a while I felt like this. I actually don't remember the last time I felt this happy, but then, I'm happy. Why I'm I happy? I have no damn idea. I think it's how today presents itself... Maybe.

Success is a beautiful thing. We all want to be successful in life. We all want to taste what it feels like to be at the peak of whatever we are doing. It's a nice feeling. I also want to feel that way too, but to me, it's not just about the feeling, but it's about transforming into somebody that will help me get back to he height I was at, even when I fall. In life, falling from a height of success is inevitable, however, I think that if an individual actually works and develops themselves, they can come back to their feet even when they fall.

We all have diverse perspectives of success. To some, being financially free is what they see as success. To some people, their self development as well as their interpersonal relationship with other people is what they see as success. I think individuals subjective perspective on success is perfectly correct. I mean,I respect everyone's perspective so long as it doesn't affect the community in a bad light.

Where I'm from, success is not actually about an individuals integrity, value or worth, but it's all about the money. How much do you have? How much money do you make? Who do you know? What do you drive? Where do you stay? How connected are you? These are the points in the scale which people use to measure the height of success that an individual has attained.

Interestingly, success, to me, is not actually about the money. Money is a confluence, not the main goal. To me, being successful is way bigger than just being on the rich list. It encompasses that by far. Success, to me, is all about the peace I can get. How well have I developed myself? How good is my relationship with family and loved ones? How well have I teach my kids to be humble, hustle, and show care, compassion and love towards others irrespective of how wealthy I may be? In what way I'm I impacting the world? To me, it's not about the fame, but it's about the silent positive impact.

I have seen quite a lot of things in life. I'm not very experienced with life, but I'm experience enough to know that finances is not success. Yes, I want to have money. Yes I'm hustling to have lots of money, but no, I don't count being rich as being successful.

That's all from me, thank you for reading
