There are many facets of success. Work, play, love, achievement, etc. And you can only measure if you've succeeded at the end of the race. So, on your death bed, as you look back on your life, what will be the most important things to you?
That will be your definition of success.
To me, I know that it will be that I had a few wonderful friends, a loving wife, and that I did my best. Even when I fell down, I got up, was accountable, did my best to make amends, and I also tried my best to help others have a better day
Are there failures? Absolutely! Lots, but even those turn into successes if you learn what went into causing that failure.
I thank God every day that I live. And appreciate all the blessings that I have. Even if it's just the ability to see the beautiful colours on a small flower.
