Success

How one defines “success” is one of the KEY questions of life.  We all know the possible contenders, but for the sake of reminder, let me list a few. 

• Potential goals to mark success:
• Fame, status
• Fortune, net worth
• Possessions
• Awards, recognitions.

There are more, but you get the point.

As I grow older, the issue of success begins to look different.  To be fair, at my weakest moments, I seek all the marks of success listed above.  It would be nice to be “seen as successful”.  I have to remind myself, and perhaps so do you, of true success, of real achievement.  It is NOT our default position.

Of what do I remind myself?  Here’s the goal.  Here’s the prize.

You’ve seen it before in this blog.
