Everyone measure success differently, Some look at money and high priced things as being successful. I for one look at success the same way I look at my blessings. To me they go hand and hand.
From waking up in the morning to putting a smile on someones face, laying down at night grateful that I was able to be productive. Doing things that I enjoy and having the luxury to get paid for is wonderful, Don’t get me wrong it’s great to have money but to me that doesn’t equal success.
I had a social media friend to tell me that I should be more successful and I’m just not tapping in to all my potential. I truly use to believe that also, but I wasn’t looking at the bigger picture. I told her that of course in her eyes I wasn’t where I should be, But the truth is my life and what I do each day doesn’t revolve around meeting anyone on this Earth’s expectations. I know she just wanted to help but it’s good to ask someone are they happy first.
I use to look around and see others seem to past me by, I struggled to find my own lane. Yes at any age you will still look to be accepted by your peers. It’s normal.
So I’ve learned to love and be grateful for all my successes and blessings because they are for me, and so are yours.
I would love some feedback How do you measure your success?
Some of you may have seen the announcement on Facebook a few weeks ago but for those of you who didn't... it's official May 20th will be my big day!
If someone had told me that I would be doing this one year ago, I am pretty sure that I would not have believed them but that it is a testimony to how quickly God can change your life.
No matter what that voice in the back of your head tells you or people around you- You are enough and you were not put on this Earth to please people who dont believe in you.
Somethings you just feel like you should know or catch on to quicker when you’re older. I’m 30 years old and I know now that some people that I called friends are not really my friends at all. What do you do when you feel that part of your life has taken its course. I dont know about some women but for me it’s kind of tough to connect with another females and become close friends. Women are so competitive these day and jealous of one another. We all lone for that girlfriend you can call and talk about any and everything. I just dont have that and it’s strange that I’m just realizing it. I’m decorating for my daughters birthday along and it all just hit me.
Why stress? You still have to solve the problem/issue whether you’re stress or not. A person usually performs better when they are calm and relaxed. I just try my best to stay calm and settle the issue as quickly as possible so I can move forward. If there’s something that you do or I don’t like then I’ll let you know then continue to move forward, why get mad?…..Life is short so why waste it being mad, upset or stressed……
Well I’m feeling refreshed and renewed. I had a great coaching session the other day and I learned so much about myself. For starters I play it to safe when it comes to my goals. I tend to not challenge myself to much because of my fear of failure.
I’m taking things one day at a time but I am determined to conquer my fears and doubt in myself. I’m going to live each day like it was my last, but learn each day as if I will live forever.
