Society judges people based on their success in life - whether it's having a successful career, being wealthy, having an attractive partner, etc. But really, nobody can decide what success really means to a person. Maybe you think having a six-figure salary is a sign of success, while someone else feels successful after creating a website. Success is all about perspective and dependent on each person's life goals and abilities.
Success is relative, and I've written about it before and discussed how success should be defined by YOU and not others, yet I'd like to continue to discuss success in this blog post. Often all we need is a little push from behind, a little bit of extra motivation to get us through the day. On those days when you feel like you are failing will those around you are basking in success, take a moment to detach and recharge.
