What does it really mean to be successful?

For me, success means having a happy family, the opportunity to offer and support the family both materially and emotionally, to live a life I want and not to worry about tomorrow.

Success can be divided into several parts: the professional part, the material part, the emotional part, the family part. As I listed above, all these parts are extremely important for a human being.

The steps you will take later will be dictated by this definition of success. There are many people who choose to be successful only in certain aspects of life, such as personal relationships or business. That's why we see people in these fields more often, while in others we only see people struggling, but not as many successful examples.

One thing that can happen and, unfortunately, happens very often is that while you are looking for success you neglect other aspects of life, some very important.

For example, people who are obsessed with work often end up neglecting their family. Professionally, they are the personalized image of success, while after the program they can return to an empty house or to an unsatisfactory family life, full of conflicts and failures.

At the other extreme, we can find a person extremely dedicated to family life, a wonderful parent and partner, but who struggles to ensure their livelihood, to give their loved ones what they need. Although he succeeded in a field in which the obsessed with work does not excel, the attachment and time spent with his loved ones wasted all his chances of advancing in a field that consumes time and energy.

Aspects of personal success

In order to have the measure and the framework in which your personal success can manifest itself, it is advisable to make a list of the different important aspects of your life, which you want to keep in balance. In this sense, it is necessary a global analysis and then on the domains, so that we understand, without referring to the opinions of others, what success means for us.

You need to find answers to many questions: What aspects of life matter most in your vision of success? What criteria should you meet to consider yourself a successful person?

If you give yourself enough time to truly define your vision of personal success, then you can build a plan that you can follow to achieve your goal. However, if you ignore these steps, you may end up neglecting the most important aspects of your life, chasing a mirage.

I believe that each of us was created to succeed, but along the way we lost something and we failed very easily. Nothing should seem impossible to us, because, in fact, nothing is impossible.

Work to achieve what is important to you, and make sure you enjoy every moment you live, because life must be lived in abundance and you will see how you will truly realize what success means to you!

The aspiration for success depends on each person, we cannot succeed by doing nothing.

Success does not come in how many days, weeks, it comes with time, we can not have a job, and after two weeks we are very successful. For example, singers launch with a song that may or may not be to the liking of other people, but with a single song you are not successful, you may give it not for a long time but only for a period of time.

How do you feel after success?

I have often wondered how success feels, how you feel after reaching a huge goal. And I found out that the euphoria in the beginning changes after a while. A person who has achieved success may feel sad because he has the feeling that he has worked hard and that the happiness of success lasted only a moment, not knowing what to do next, or what will happen. This is the man who did not enjoy the journey that led him to success, but waited for the climax, only to be slightly disappointed after a while, when he realizes that he has to start over with another goal.

Another could fall into the trap of self-pride, which is considered the greatest danger of success. He could become arrogant, full of himself, adopt an air of superiority over those among whom he has reached the top, and think he is fuller of qualities than he is. Or, worse, he may think that nothing is coming down from above, which is false. Lying on the laurels of victory and not continuing to solidify what you have built is a sickly attitude, by which you sabotage yourself.
