How famous people define success?

“To find and fully live your purpose in life and to leave an enduring legacy of having made a difference in the world”- perscribes success, Ron Cordes ( the founder of Cordes).

Interesting how many people define success. Yet for many people success is making lots of money. “Success says Dhiraj (a bloger), is the reward of hard work, patience which gives you achievement, satisfaction and happiness. Also success meaning, changes time to time, place to place and person to person”

Ways of defining success

1- Setting goals and doing your best.

We all have aims. We work hard to achive them. Failure in process for me is success. You learn and you try again. Every little step towards your goal is a success. As long as you come home and say: I had a good day

2 – Setting a work-life balance

We go to work every day. Providing for ourself and our families. By doing so we define it as success. There is joy when you sit and have a meal with your kids, wife, mum dad. It is success to set a work-life balance . It makes you happy and brings a smile in to your loved ones.

3 – Make a difference

You accomplish your dream by achieving your goals. You create a comfortable life. Make sure every day you try to make a difference in peoples lives.Do as little or as much as you can. That is your legacy. Making a difference in your life, making a difference in peoples you love lives. Making a difference in your community lives

Success can be difined  diffrently from different individuals. A film maker from Israel was asked ones, if she had plans to go to Los Angelos and try to break in Hollywood film industry. Probably not she said, since I cant imagine being that far way from my family. So if for many of us would define as success going to Hollywood for the the Israeli film maker was the opposite one.

Now you tell me how do you define success?
