A day at a time
Every single day has its own challenges.
Success is something that we highly overrate. We combine it with possessions and materialistic things or the number that we see in our bank accounts.
Those things are all wonderful and can feel like a success too, but the big difference is this:
A real success will be something that will live on forever. A feeling in the hearts of people and a thought that accompany that feeling.
Let me give you a brief example, I just will write to people's names here and if you like you can comment below what you feel towards them:
1. Michael Jackson
2. Robin Williams
I know, those are superstars to say the less and remember if you leave an impression in somebody's life, this impression will be carried on throughout the whole life of this person. And maybe is given forward as wisdom to a younger generation one day.
Some day's successes
If you reflect on what you have accomplished yesterday, think about it again and rejoice it in your current day. Move along with your thoughts and improve what you have created to prepare what next you can do.
A Success is to reflect on your accomplishments, see them as what they are and what you have done and created. Alone the fact that you are reading this now is a success.
Everything that provokes a thought that you can follow up is a success. Drinking every 15 mins a sip of water and every hour a glass is a success. Standing up and exercise in a desk job position is a success. Writing that blog, every day, is a success. Talking to somebody else, even about life itself and not business related at all, is a success.
Treat your daily achievements and actions like successes and they will never stop flooding your way, and besides it will increase your overall feeling as you always can answer, yes I am successful at everything.
And yes, I know, successful at everything is impossible, let us look at those things we cannot or won't ever do "successfully" like a success in figuring out that those things are not for us and move on.
I wish you an awesome successful time and a great day/night/morning wherever you are
Sunny regards
Stefan

You really touched on the truth....success is NOT about the material.....success can bring the material, or not. Each day you wake and breathe.....it is a success.
Yes it is, we all only have the current day for our life. Not yesterday and not tomorrow. To be awake means to have 86100 seconds for the new day to our exposal. We can use this time or don't, anyways all we have is now, everyday for ever.
Stefan, personally I liked Robin Williams.
He was a great comedian but a tortured man.
I like you analogy of Success. I have always said,
Success is the Journey not the Destination.
I like that you said,
"Success is to reflect on your accomplishments"
thank you, be great,

You too Ken, and I really love that you see what I meant as I brought up those two great souls. They show that success has nothing to do with your mental or personal state or feelings.

Yes this is so true Stefan.
Successes are attainable by all.
You just need to realize what success is.
Then reflect on that, and continue.
Successes will follow.

Robin was successful in the eyes of many and definitely had material things, however I understand that he was not happy.
You are right about everyday success. They don't have to be huge deals success can little itty bitty things too.
One huge success for me, and I may be speaking for others as well, is the ability to work my business from home and quit my day job. WA provides this opportunity without scamming me like other programs. Working at home will give me the family time and me time that every individual on the planet deserves.
Thanks for the inspiration Stefan, and excellent photos!
ROCK ON!

Thank you for your straight and honest answer, possession is not equal happiness, also success does not equal in happiness. It has to become part of your life and a choice to follow, only then it can become contagious in yourself and for others. Never the less you can make other people happy with your doing, while still be in dear need of happiness.
Great post, Stefan. I like the comparisons you make this really encourages... thanks for sharing!
Love, Martin
So very true success comes of different levels and mean different things to different people..
Michael Jackson ... talented and a gentle, sensitive soul
Robin Williams a man who sought to lift the spirits of everyone despite his struggle with depression..
Enjoyed your post thank you
yes, they both had a powerful impact on our world, and still have with what they have created. Thank you for your comment :-D awesome and proves again that success is simply the feeling of accomplishment.
Great words and great insight! Success is not always about money, but it is nice to have some returns with money on occasion. I know building a website was a huge success for me and now maintaining it is even more of a success.
Thanks for those words!

Wow! You are so on point!. Money is a short term success goal. You are so right that true success is what will be something remembered long after you are going! Thanks Stefan.
Any Time Ron :-D, Money is something we need in order to move along in this world, and it is simply put a vehicle for us to survive in the post-modern society we have formed.
