Questions to Help You Define Success for Yourself


The luxury car. The finest restaurants. The name-brand clothes. These are often things people mention when they are asked about success. You may have even found yourself defining success based on the items mentioned above. Yet, as you move toward accomplishments in life, you may find that what you were in fact chasing were the definitions of success made by others. Let me tell you one secret among many to being successful. You have to define it for yourself. You see, there's no one way to achieve success, but there is a way that will be right for you using your natural skills and abilities. To try and copy others will only lead to a road of disappointment. So rather than chasing what you see on television or other media sources, your success will come when you define it for yourself.

So now the question is, do you know what success is? Specifically, what does success mean to you? Here are some questions that can help you define your purpose, and thus success for yourself.

1. What impact do you want to make in the world?

2. What makes you happy and fulfilled?

3. About what are you passionate?

4. What talents/skills are unique to you?

5. What would you do if money was no object?
