Success
IS Everything
by Jim Rohn
Someone
once said to me that success isn't everything and I think
I know what they really meant. I believe they really meant
that money wasn't everything and I certainly agree with that.
But I do believe that success IS everything.
First
you need to succeed to survive. We must take the seasons and
learn how to use them with the seed, the soil and the rain
of opportunity to learn how to sustain ourselves and our family.
But then second is to then succeed to flourish in every part
of your life.
Good question to ask mature people "If you could do better
should you?" And I thing almost everybody would answer
the question in the positive. If you could improve your health
shouldn't you do that? If you can learn more shouldn't you
do that? If you could earn more and share more, shouldn't
you do that?
If you can improve your relationships and spirituality shouldn't
you do that? And I think that is what success is really all
about. It is not just a destination that is set for everybody
to try and go for.
It is like Zig said, "improving in every area of your
life to see if you can't with satisfaction at the end of the
day, week, month and year and say 'I have made excellent progress
this year, for myself, for my family, for my business, my
career and my health.'". I think that kind of success
everybody recognizes is legitimate and something we should
all strive for.
Interesting
phrase in the bible that says strive for perfection - not
that we can ever reach it. But it is in the striving, to be
a little bit better today than yesterday, in our speech, our
language, our health, everything we can possibility think
of.
So
yes, in my opinion it is good to succeed!
To
Your Success,
Jim Rohn
