What is success ?

Everyone  has a different definition of success, a man in his 20s might says success is all about money and driving the latest cars or taking regular trips to Dubai or being on top of your career while a man in his 60s might say success is all about being happy and having a family even if you don't have money to take a foreign trip. With no doubt everyone has a different definition and what more peculiar people at different ages sees success differently.

So what is success ?

Let think of success as an equation consisting of various variables, money can one of the variable but money alone doesn't equal success. People generally don't call drug lords or criminals successful even if they had stack up millions of dollars in foreign account, and you  probably don't want to have money and also a failing health, which brings us to the variables of success  which when added up truly makes us successful

4 Variables of Success

#1 Money :

Though having money doesn't equal success , the importance of money  cannot be denied, money helps you to pay bills, money brings happiness and laughter. You may have a happy home but you need money to pay the bill,  to buy good  things,  to take care of your kids and family. The importance of money to success cannot be overemphasized, but money alone does not equal to success.

#2 Health

You may have all the money in the world, but you could just trade it for a good health, a lot of people have the riches but it has taken a toll on their body over time and now they wish they never work so hard for it . It makes no sense in having all the money if you  cannot enjoy it, so anytime you are working to the detriment of your health , remember you can't enjoy the money if you are sick.

#3 Family and Friends

I previously wrote a  post on how people are agents of success, but we will talk on how you need family to be called successful, there is no point on having money if there is no one to enjoy it with, if no one is there to bring you joy and happiness  then why have the money.

Friends and family brings comfort and support both in seasons of good and bad, it sad to have no family or friend when we have all the money or worse still a broken home or a torn relationship, why don't you make amends today and make amends with friends and family.

#4 Peace

Having peace is a very important to be successful, you make look successful to the outside world even to your family but you yourself know you need inner peace. Sometime our mind has no peace from worried conscience and guilt which may spans decades and might try to make amends but still we have no peace on the inside.

Worse still there is no peace around us, conflict and chaos might surround us and wars might plague our lands and homes, in time of wars, no one is peaceful and properties are loss.
