Are You Successful - What is
Success?
To some, success is
define by making a 6 or 7 figure income. Other
people define success by their career accomplishments.
Still others define success as a big house, nice cars,
travel and fine furniture.
But real success is
fulfilling your destiny. Have you wondered why people with
ordinary jobs and little status seem to be so happy? It's
there definition of success. To some, a great life is
providing a home, food and happiness to their family.
The elusive nature of
success is that it varies from person to person. Some
people are content with a regular 9 to 5 job, while others
have thoughts and ambition to run their own multi-million
dollar business. Is the CEO of a fortune 500 company more
successful or inspirational than a local area bus driver?
Most would say the CEO is most successful but is that
true?
Hold those thoughts and
let's look further! The CEO makes 2 million a year, has no
close friends and a failing marriage. The constant
pressure and time demand of his job gives him little time
for outside hobbies. He has no time for family and his
kids dabble in drugs. Mr. CEO loves his job but the
tremendous pressure of his job makes him feel frustrated
and empty inside.
Mr. Bus Driver make $40K a
year and lives in an average house with a wife and two
kids. He loves spending time with his family and they love
him very much. His kids consult dad on every important
matter in life and Mr. Bus Driver thoughts is not
constantly on his job.
Mr. Bus Drivers has close
friends from work and 2 old fishing buddies. Mr. Bus
driver loves to fish and his buddies make regular fishing
trips. Mr. Bus Driver is also active with an organization
that provides donated medical supplies to poor areas in
the country and internationally that desperately
need these supplies to save lives.
Who is more successful .....
Mr. CEO or Mr. Bus Driver? The first thing that is obvious
is that it's not the amount of money they earn or the nice
cars and home. The difference between these two men is
their mission in life. Mr. Bus Driver life does not
revolve around himself but rather his family and friends.
Hence, he has caring and inspirational relationships.
Mr. Bus Driver life is
balanced because he has other interests. His job is NOT
his life. He also fulfills a mission that he feels very
passionate about ...... keeping others alive through
donated medical supplies.
The difference is .......
Mr. CEO life revolves around himself while Mr. Bus Driver
life revolves around others. Mr. Bus Driver is fulfilling
his mission in life by taking care of his family and
supplying desperately needed medical supplies. Mr. Bus
Driver also serves a good secondary function as a
transportation laborer.
So is there something wrong
with being a CEO? Absolutely not. Some people
have thoughts and ambition to accomplish many great
things. Their success does not rest solely with their job
which is the common mistakes of over-achievers.
It's the person inside you that matters. Everyone
is meant to fulfill a plan or destiny. If your destiny
revolves entirely around yourself, you'll probably be
miserable ..... or at the very least .... NOT VERY
SUCCESSFUL.
