Moving Toward Success

 Moving Toward Success 

All things come to an end. There is a beginning. There is an ending. Whether a week, month, year, or centuries passes, all will fade to obscurity. Focusing on the eventual end of something instead of focusing on your current achievements will help you remain grounded. 

As every year passes, there is a sense of a new beginning simultaneously with an ending. Will this be the year that you achieve your goals and your dreams? Or will those remain unachieved? You are the one who will decide what the future will bring. It is up to you to drum up your passion to make it a reality.

Considering the billions of people that have lived throughout time, every one of them had dreams and hopes for the future. You are the only one who knows the truth of what you want to achieve. That means it is up to you to make your life successful. Success can mean many things to different people, but it means only one thing to you. If you start today, success will come at a future date. Starting this year will mean achieving your dreams and goals sooner. If you start next year or the year after, the same amount of time will still be required.

Instead of thinking of resolutions for the next year, focus on the real purpose of your life. Many will think it is money, fame, success, and other words that show an achievement that others can perceive. Purchasing a brand-new car, a large house or some additional expensive tangible expense that showcases your success is what many believe in, presenting your lavish lifestyle. However, success can be more powerful than the most expensive car you can buy.

The acquisition of material assets is a measure of success for some. Creativity is what many seek during their life. Being a kind and helpful person is a goal for others. For others, family is the most important measure of success. Seeking knowledge and learning is the goal of academics. Faith and seeking a righteous lifestyle are goals for many. No one can tell you what success means to you. It is up to you to figure out what success will bring. 

Seek your success and enjoy your life. Before you know it, others may write about it in history books. And if not, that is OK as well. You have had a successful life if you have memories you can draw on in your maturity to share with others.
