The Secret of Success and Happiness

Let’s face it that every person has his own secret of success. By the way, what is your definition of success? There isn’t a generally accepted meaning of the term because each person puts his own personal spin on what it means.

This isn’t really surprising because every person is unique in how he thinks and what his goals in life are. In fact, one defines it from his achievements of goals. Before you can achieve goals, you should decide on what your definition of success is.

Some people feel that to be successful means you are happy. Happiness is a very individual thing. What makes one person happy may not even be of interest to another person. It is up to you to find out what truly makes you happy.

Some people will quickly say that having a large amount of money will make them happy. Others say that happiness is helping people to be their best they can be in life while others say that happiness is much simpler than that. Neither answer is right or wrong. It is up to the individual because the secret of success and happiness is a personal matter just like the definition of success.

Success might be a goal for your business life and career or it might be something you strive for in your personal life. Personally, my vision and secret of success is the combination of the two. I think success means much more than having a huge bank account.
 
Although financial security is a big part of being successful, I think it takes much more than that to have a happy life. There are plenty of other riches to be had besides money like your family and friends. Love and helping others to be their best they can are very important secrets of success and components to living a happy life.

You should get a clear image of what success is before you attempt to achieve it or else you won't have a clear cut goal to shoot for. If you don't know where you are going you will have a hard time getting there.

If you know exactly what you want in your life and also know exactly what makes you happy, then you have found your personal definition of success. By this you will have an easier time when attaining your goal.

You are a unique individual and your secret of success is unique also. Someone else might not agree with your ideas for happiness and success but don't let that bother you. You have only one life under the sun and you should live to its full. Go for it, don’t hesitate!
