Define Success
Don't Waist Your Time
How do you find success in your life? How do you realize how successful you are? Most people know when they aren't successful but struggle to see if they are. This feeling is the worst in the world because most people don't know if they peaked. There comes a time for the grinding, but there's also a time for the chilling. If you want to be successful, the internet conditions us to grind, grind, and grind. But they never tell us when to stop. As a matter of fact, it tells us never to stop. And that leads to burnout; later you realize that the juice is never worth the squeeze.
The trick is in the balance. It is good to work for what you want in life; however, you need to learn to have some control. Depending on what you want to do. But first, you need to "define" what success looks like to you. Most people have no idea what success means to them. That's why they conform to what others think success looks like to them and is a mess. Because you end up having the kind of success that others have and not the type of success you want.

But how do you start having the success you are pursuing? Well, for that, you need to define "success.” You need to understand that the concept of "success" is different for everyone because the word in itself is abstract. Meaning that people would give their own sense of what the concept is.
If you don't write things down, it is nearly impossible for anyone to achieve anything.
It's important to understand that success means something different to everyone. So the same definition of success is not the same for others as your own. Second, you need to write down what success means to you. Why? Only by documenting, retaining, and reflecting on it can you bring things into your life. If you don't write things down, it is nearly impossible for anyone to achieve anything. Then you need to start creating deadlines, even if you think that the deadlines aren't achievable. Once you've set those deadlines, the final step is to evaluate whether you are willing to pay the price for what you desire. Are you willing to do what it takes? That’s the question you’ve got to answer to yourself, and that’s the price to pay. If it is really worth the price that you're paying for it? If, by any stretch of the imagination, you think that it isn't worth your time, then don't do it. Time is the most valuable commodity you have in life, so don't waste it. If for whatever reason you have wasted your time, you will regret it when you're fifty.
