Being a Success in Life

Hi There,

I read an article recently that really made me stop, think and evaluate where my
life was going. You know when you have those weeks when it seems like you're
never going to get caught up and things just don't go as you had planned?

Then I remembered some advice that someone had given to me and it stopped me in
my tracks and forced me to make a few changes in my life.

We all need to slow down, look around and try to "live in the moment sometimes." I
think we all need to remember what we value in our lives and be grateful for the things
we often take for granted. Most importantly if there is something we don't like, instead
of complaining about it 'Change it!"

Here are the six questions that I was asked:

1. Do you feel that you are a success at what you do?

2. Do you feel fulfilled?

3.Are you genuinely happy?

4.Do you love what you do for a living?

5.Do you love your career or job?

6.Do you go around smiling all the time, are always in a good mood and
often have something interesting going on in your life?

If you can say yes to all of these questions you are obviously a person who has
figured out what you love and figured out a way to get paid for it.

The fact is that only you can decide how you can be fulfilled in your life.

This reflection time has really made me realize that I am already doing what I
was meant to do. Also, I have discovered how to achieve my life's purpose in
a way that I can help others by sharing a talent I was born with.

One last quote that I would like to share that I keep on my fridge and read daily:

"Every worthwhile accomplishment has a price tag attached to it. The question is always
whether you are willing to pay the price to attain it - in hard work, sacrifice, patience,
faith and endurance."

John C. Maxwell

Have a great day!
