What Is Success?

Everyone wants to be successful in life. Some chase it and never reach it, others complain and think the world is against them or are not meant for it. But what is true success? and how does one achieve it.

Truth is that there are several ways to be successful and one must find it and work for it. In life, success comes in many forms and these are just a few of them. In order to find true peace and have a better quality of life there are 5 phases of success that one has to achieve and it is not just one single thing that society puts it out to be.

Inner Success

As one might already be aware, finding success within yourself is the first step to peace. When you start working on yourself and realize that it is up to you and no one else you will start finding peace and life will become better. We must understand the importance of finding yourself first in order to succeed in the rest of the aspects. This starts with reflecting, observing, and applying different concepts to become a better person. Whether it is meditating, walking, or as one might say grounding to the earth.

Family Success

Once figuring yourself out, we must start focusing on fixing and forgiving those closest to us. There will always be family problems, beliefs that were engraved in our head and traumas involved. But a true successful life, is where you are able to put that away, forgive, forget and move on. Then in the future have a family of our own and realizing that at the end of all of this, family is the most important thing in our life. Whether it is blood, or people we have grown up to trust, believe, and be comfortable around with no hesitation of being ourselves. Having success within family will not only bring peace but raise the quality of life as well. It will show one more truth of the meaning of what life truly is and can be.

Career Success

We all want to have success In a career and this is another area where we must achieve in order to find peace. The way one does this is by working hard, whether it is at a corporate job or starting your own business. Everyone chooses their own path, and can find the same quality of success if you put your head down, not complain, and just work hard to get to the top. Not overdue it of-course, but still working hard in order to keep improving day by day. One will noticed the difference of just ignoring what others say and choosing to get the job done. Whether it sucks at the moment, or it seems impossible to move up, the hard work and calm mind will eventually pay off.

Financial Success

I believe at the end of finding career and family success we all want the financial freedom. To be able to wake up every morning and know we will be secure and not have to worry about the money. Knowing that our family is taken care of and we can move through the world freely without having the thought of having to work for money. Truth is although money doesn’t matter at the end of all of this, it is an important aspect of everyones lives. It is what runs our world. So yes having financial success is something that will eventually bring you peace, again it isn’t everything but it is a big part of life. To reach this level of success we must be discipline, honest, and work hard towards it. Sacrificing a part of our lives in order to have a bigger outcome, at the end it will be worth every moment.

Impact Success

What comes out of all these successes in life is impacting other peoples lives. For once we can give back. To our family, close friends, and even other people in the world trying to reach that success. I am not there yet, but I am aware of what I want from all the types of success. I had always told myself, whenever I get to a certain amount of financial success, my goal is to do my best to make the world a bit better with everything going on. Growing up I always felt good when giving back to others or helping others. As one grows up we become greedy and forget the important things in life, it is the impact that we make in our lives that truly matter, with the world, relationships and most importantly our close ones. What do you want to be remembered for, how hard are you willing to work for it and achieve that success to leave a mark on everyones life.
