The Simplicity of Success

When people hear the word "success," it usually brings to mind images of great wealth, exotic vacations, mansions, notoriety and influence. Such things only represent one dimension of success, however. There are many, many more. The most successful people I know come from a variety of backgrounds and have a variety of incomes. The one factor they have in common is that they are genuine.

For one person, success may look like quiet, devoted service. For another, it may be warm friendships and an amazing marriage. For another it may be a great resume or business. For another it may be achieving inner peace in the midst of outer chaos.

Success isn't about stuff. It's about actualizing your potential. It's not about how much you make; it's what you do with it that really counts.

Each of us has the potential to be wildly successful. We simply need to discover what it is that we do well, and do it to the best of our ability. Success is extraordinarily easy to achieve, once you understand what it actually is.
