What Is Success Really About?

Is success really about you? Or is it about your actions? Or is it about your words? Or is it about your thoughts? Or is it about how you treat other people? Or is it about how you treat yourself? What does it really mean to you? For the purpose of this note, success is not about you. It is more than you. It is about how you live your life. It is about how you treat other people, especially the little guys, the vulnerable ones, the homeless ones, the poor ones. It is about knowing what you want in your life and going for it. It is about doing what you want to do to change your life. It is about taking positive actions that will change the lives of other people. That is what success is all about. Success is not about what you have; it is about what you give to change the lives of other people. Success is not about you; it is about other people. Because no one succeeds alone. Whatever you have, you didn’t do it alone. If you want to succeed, help other people succeed. Keep doing good things. Keep changing the world. Respect yourself. Treat people with respect. Don’t try to make everybody happy. It won’t work. That is not success. Success is making yourself happy. Success is thinking positively about yourself, your work, your relationships. Because if you don’t like yourself, don’t expect other people to like you. You are your message. You are your own messager. If you want people to help you tomorrow, be nice to them today. Because your tomorrow is happening right now, right where you are. Don’t ignore it. Live it.

Do Not Wait For The Perfect Time To Create Your Own Future

There is no perfect time to do something. The perfect time to do anything is now. If you don’t have the courage to do it now, when will you do it? Whatever you want to do, now is the best time to do it. People don’t do things because of fear. Remember, fear is real. It will always be there. So to get things done in your life, you must learn how to dance with your fears. Don’t let fear paralyze you. Don’t let fear cripple you. Don’t wait for the perfect time to lift yourself up. Do it now. Don’t wait for the perfect time to forgive people who have wronged you. Forgive them now. Don’t wait for the perfect time to focus on one thing that you really do well. Focus on one thing now. If you don’t do it now, if you don’t live your life now, in this moment, when are you going to do it? When? Remember, you have the power to create your own future. If you haven’t strated doing it, start now. If you don’t start, you can’t finish. Start. Don’t fear failure, fear not starting something. When you fail, grow from it, learn from it. Don’t see yourself as a loser. You are not a loser. You are a winner. You just tried something that didn’t work. Period. And don’t stop. Don’t wait for the perfect time. Just keep trying.
