How do you measure success? Wealth, possessions or what?? - How do you consider a person is successful? Do you consider the non-material things a person has instead of property or money? Have you ever considered friendship, health, love, family, children, grandchildren, or kindness? If you have never considered any of these, stop and re-evaluate your ideas of success.
I used to think of success as never needing anything - but I have since met a lot of people who really had nothing and they still felt like they had achieved a lot in life because of family, friends, faith, health, love and kindness. Some of the nicest people I have ever met were living below the poverty level (not to say that people who have money aren't nice ~ I have known a lot of them too). Today, re-evaluate your life and make a list of the things that you have that can't be bought and be happy in them.
Think of others today and then yourself. The week is half over : )
