Success

We all want to experience the moment of success. 

Success is a steady realization of the goal set in front of us. One can have different goals, whether it is to become absolutely the best parent, or billionaire, or an astronaut. Movement towards the goal is already some sort of success as you are not standing still but constantly moving and that supposedly should give one some sort of satisfaction. 

While growing up I have learned that success is decisions, actions, the process, education and not bragging about it. 

We dream, and we go after our dreams. We fall, but we get up and continue. Everyday is full of small successes in our children or in ourselves, in our friends, work, but sometimes we do not notice these small successes. Either we are too arrogant, or too busy or too blind. 

As human beings it is hard to be happy for someone else's successes especially if it involves one way or the other yourself. There is so much jealousy and envy around and back stabbing is a common way of ensuring the prevention of these happy moments. Often I wonder why. Ofter I wonder what motivates people to be the way they are. 

My life has been far from a party. Loosing close members of the family, moving around, getting used to new surroundings, starting life all over again, but at the end of the day, my key to success is to look positive on life, use your noodle, be nice to the others, sincere and continue pursuing your goals. 

One thing for sure, my measurement of success still stands for the "old school" and somehow not with the young people born after 1990. 

PS: I learned the secret of the last unit of success if you're born prior to 1990: Post pictures with kids and/or kittens. And homemade muffins. Whatever you do, don't forget homemade muffins.
