What’s your Definition of Success?

Written by Tevin on October 20, 2007 – 10:15 am -

I throw around the term “Success” quite often, and quite liberally.

And probably use it (probably unrightfully so) quite definitively. Because “Success” is such a broad word that means so many things to so many people.

The definition I would give for success is probably quite different than the definition you would give.

But we MUST form it in our mind. We must give it a verbal definition. But so many people I have talked to, have not.

If we have not defined success for ourselves. Then how are we ever supposed to know we’ve achieved it?

My definition for success is simple:

“Always continuing to improve my knowledge and abilities to better my financial, and personal life.”

What is yours?

Large success is made up of little successes that lead to personal self-mastery in all areas of your life. It is not money itself, but the discipline, wisdom, freedom, and personal growth in its ethical pursuit. - That’s my take on what success is.

Great definition Eric, I am going to keep that in mind.

I just started reading your blog from the start, and I like what you are doing. Keep it up Tevin, and I think you are on track.
