Success is a Consequence of What You Are

2009 October 14

Anyone who “gets” this has the key to success. Anyone who knows this can confirm the truth of the statement: Success is a natural consequence of what you are, and nothing else.

Success cannot be measured by material wealth. Fortunes come and go.

Success cannot be measured by status. You need only watch TV to see how sad and pathetic many celebrity lives have become.

True success is everlasting; it’s not conditional on market circumstance or other external factors. “Things” don’t define a truly successful person. It’s who you are—who you have become—that matters.

Someone with true success can get financially wiped out overnight and still know he can build it all again. No problem. It wasn’t luck. It was an alignment of principles. It was maintaining a high standard. It was focusing and respecting the needs of others. It was always operating with integrity—showing respect, admiration and reverence to all life.

Ultimately, then, building wealth becomes a choice.

The qualities of a successful person are with him always.
