Success - At All Cost

In my book, this does not exist and let me explain why Success- At All Cost would not be gratifying.  First and foremost we all should have a clear understanding of where our desire for Success belongs.  I know that most of us do.  It may be something life this...First we should have a commitment to our faith (meaning our belief in a power that leads us and guides us if we allow it), what ever that is and our family. They ride this boat together.  Why,  because I believe that we can be guided by our faith in whatever we believe in.  I believe in God.  You may not, but I think that we all need to believe in something that gives us strength to live our life in control and power.

Success- At All Cost is not worth having and here is why.  If I leave my spouse because he is not successful in my eyes, I probably have my priorities wrong.  It means I probably did not love him to begin with. Otherwise, I would try to motivate him in his endeavors and see what the problems are,  instead of placing blame on an issue and seek couseling to see exactly what the true issues are.  If I neglect my child because I am too busy to deal with him, I definitely have made havoc of my priorities.  If I try to degrade someone else to make myself look better, I am only hurting myself because the old saying is very true;  what goes around, comes around....sooner or later....not maybe.  If I lower my standards to be like the crowd, I am not stable and somewhere I will fall.  If I try to be someone other than myself; then I do not have a clear picture of who I am and I do not realize; it is important to be unique.  If I seek approval from others more than myself, then I do not know that my heart will tell me when something is right. If I don't have self appreciation or self approval, I know what I am doing is wrong.  If you know you are cheating on something; everyone else will know also and it will not produce the end results needed to be Successful.  There is no room in life for cheating to get to the top...do it the right way; for there is no short cuts.

Never and I say never, does a person build true Success or worth by leaving out the most important things in their life.  A person cannot grow into an invaluable position in work or play by hurting anyone else and this includes your family. There is nothing more important than family.  If it is; something in you life is not right.  Your perceptions of life are not what they should be and you are headed down the wrong path.  You will at some point hit a snag that will litterly throw you for a loop and low and behold; who will you call upon?  The family you have not given the attention they needed.  If you are single..I can see that you only have yourself to worry about (for the most part) but you should still being good to those who have invested time and encouragement to you at points in your life...and taught you right from wrong...they deserve your respect and honor.  Always....

When a person is overly concerned about ourselves and their Success and are willing to do anything to make it happen.... they are disillusioned.  They are broken somewhere and they are headed for a fall of some nature.  Being Successful---should never impair our vision of our personal life and/or family life.  To gain respect and recognition in our life...nine times out of ten..it will only be for those who show the ability to manage and maintain their personal life equal to their professional life.

In our life we must know "how to find our own Success".
