What is your meaning of Success?

This is what I was recently asked for an article interview, luckily they limited my words or I could go on for days. Here is my response, and I look forward to hearing about your Success meaning. I will post the interview when it is live so you all can learn more about my journey, CellBoitcs, and plans for the future.

Success:

For me, success means details to freedom. Freedom to relax knowing I can care for my daughter and help my mother without fear of being poor again and without a place to call home. It means earning a residual income I do not work for through owning 40 rental properties managed by a property manager at a 10% fee. Success is traveling to destinations in the USA when I choose, with my family in tow. Success for 2021 is getting more courses online and giving more self-care. Success for my outreach is touching lives and living on in their memory as someone who was pivotal to their success, as my mentor Debbie Clark lives on in my memory.

Success is what we make it and no one has the same definition of success. When I work with students and coaching clients I get their success meaning and some do not know. It is not good enough to say, success is me being financially set or in love, ect. You need details just as I delivered above. I could go into deep details of my success meaning, you need to do the same. Also, keep in mind Success meanings change. As you accomplish success, more comes and that's ok. Life is like a rolling ball, you are never done. Do not be afraid to dream big and want for yourself, it is not bad to want for yourself. Love and give to yourself as you'd love and give to others.


Have fun with it!

Luckily they limited my word count because I could go on for days about this topic. I really enjoy the topic of success and speaking about it. I enjoy helping people figure out the success meaning as well. I have learned over the years everyone's is so unique and inspiring, once they know it.

I suggest you take a moment to really define, in detail, success to you. You, as a soul, can never truly follow your trail until you set the groundwork for the path to follow. You must give yourself direction.

Here is how I figure out my meaning of success. I sit alone early in the morning when my mind is fresh. I put away my electronics except for my laptop. I am actually not the greatest writer and most times can not read my own writing. However, when typing, the words flow through my fingers as if I was speaking directly to a person.

I start my details my vision of what my day would look like with success and I deconstruct it. I imagine myself on a beach, looking at my toes in the sand while I sit in my layout chair. I see my mom, daughter, and other family walking out laughing holding food and toys from an amazing beach house 3 stories high. It is dark blue and has white trim around the windows. I think, what would it take to actually have this home? And I go from there.

Have fun with it, get detailed, and dream. I can assure you, you will not regret it. Thank you for reading my article and I look forward to seeing your meaning of Success.
