How do you define success in your life?

Hello Kate!

Remember this: Never define your success by what people say about you. Never define your success by what people think about you. Never define your success by where your friends are today.Because if you think that way, you will only be trying to impress others. Define and craft your own definition of success. Satisfy your soul, not society.

Here's the thing: Success has to be balanced. After all, if you have lots of money but terrible family relationships and bad health, that is not really a success!

Take this quick assessment I learned from Zig Ziglar to determine if you have balanced success.

On a scale of 1–10, with 10 being outstanding, rate yourself in each of these 7 areas of life:

👉 Mental
👉 Spiritual
👉 Physical
👉 Family
👉 Financial
👉 Personal
👉 Career

How did you do? Did you have some 8s, 9s, and 10s? Did you rate anything lower than a 6? Do you have work to do?

As Zig Ziglar said, "Success is the maximum utilization of the abilities that God gave you."

I have found that we all have work to do! Our goal is to be 10s in all of these areas, and that is nearly impossible as life is always creating challenges for us.

What can we do? Simple: on a daily basis, we can make intentional choices that help us advance in each of these areas. It’s the little things we do right on a daily basis that create the life we want.

Build your life by design, not by chance.

To be successful, you must accept all the challenges that come your way. You can't just accept the ones you like. There is no challenge more challenging than the challenge of improving yourself.

Cheering you on! Stay safe and healthy! God bless!

To a better you!
