How you define success and how it leads to living a happy, joyful life
Why Is This Important?
How well you distinguish between your own definition of success and society’s definition—aligning your inner desires with their outward expression—makes all the difference between deep satisfaction and drudgery. Gaining clarity and self-knowledge requires plenty of quiet time for reflection and stepping away from the clamor of day-to-day pressures.
What Are the Key Lessons Learned Here?
So, much really comes down to investing quiet time to dig deep and ask, “Am I leading the life I want to be leading? Am I joyful and happy? And, why do I need that validation from other people?” It’s about not worrying so much about what the world says.
