Defining Success

Using What Makes You Happy to Achieve a Fulfilled Lifestyle What is success? Well, the answer to that ques3on largely depends on who you ask. There can be as many different defini3ons as there are people to ques3on. These mul3tudes of differing opinions can a make the en3re issue of success very confusing. In addi3on, having so many op3ons can make it difficult for anyone to decide for themselves what success means to them. Should a person let society tell them what success is or should each person make that decision on their own? The problem with leDng someone else decide on a defini3on of success for you is that you greatly increase the chances that you will end up with a defini3on that doesn’t suit you. It’s a liFle bit like leDng someone else order for you in a restaurant. You will certainly end up ea3ng what they like, but you very likely won’t end up with the exact meal that suits your own tastes. It is because of this that understanding the exact nature of success becomes so cri3cal for happiness and fulfillment. If you never develop the facili3es to be able to make your own decision on the maFer then you run the risk of ending up with someone else’s dinner, so to speak. In order to end up with what you want you need to see the items available on the menu so that you can choose what best suits you. This ar3cle aims to show some of the main choices that are on the menu of success.
