Let’s look at the definition of
success itself. For each of us it can be different, based on who and where we
are and how we dream of the future. From employment in a job or career that provides fulfillment, to the
ability to take care of a family, to economic stability, to being a good
neighbor, to being respected in the community and place of worship, to being in
good physical health or having solid, loving relationships—the range of how
success is defined is personal.
Prosperity
on these important fronts brings its own richness to life; degreed or not,
color of the collar in your work situation, address of your residence, cash
flow stuck or surging, bounty or barely holding on. Recognize your personal
obligations that prevent or propel. You call your life as you see it. Are you
in a sweet enriching spot or rotting hole? Prosperity can be rooted in the
emotional—peace of mind or strong faith. No locked in worries. Passionate about
other your interests or hobbies? Satisfied or wanting a change? Your choice and
your challenge. Figure and define.
Our
ambitions along with our own measure of strength, soul, and spirit add to the
meaning of success. To claim this status, let’s start by discovering and
working on eliminating any barriers to our personal progress.
Are
you stationed and ready?
Make
It Your Vision
“Every
great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the
strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the
world.”
Harriet
Tubman
Conductor,
The Underground Railroad
Whatever
success looks like in time, energy, money, effort or even loss, make the
picture of your envisioned reality as plain as it needs to be. Imagine your
career … Imagine your family …
The
dream triggers this new thing that you want. Measureable and to the point is how
to capture this goal. Questions to ask yourself are: How badly do you want … ?
What am I willing to go through to get it?
Only
you have the answer.
As
Earth, Wind and Fire sing, “Keep your head to the sky.”
Dream.
Imagine. Take a risk.
Back On Track? The
Way Forward
First,
fortify for the opposing forces and be sure you know the truth about yourselves,
and your purpose. Read positive, recent, and industry targeted information.
Don't rely solely on the local newspaper or the broadcasts for accurate
accounts of your life or situation in America. Proceed with caution with some
of the online sites. Be ready and resilient in pursuing what’s for you. Rightly know your personal constitution. Use your IPS (internal positioning system) to guide you.
We
now become the Griots of our struggles and story. Having our own main track of
information is a great place to start! Shoulder these pillars as your
guidelines and go. Find your beacon. Help yourself and others continuously
along the way. Pace yourself. Be gentle. Realize that sometimes along the way we
all need a little PUSH.
Purpose, Understanding, Support,
Healing.
