It is a pity that most people today does really know what it means to be successful. The word success has been lifted so high that people don't even know when to say they are successful.
If we will not shy away from the fact, the mentality most of us has been nurturing about success since our tender age cut across some of the points highlighted below;

• That you are successful when you own lots of houses,

• That you are successful when you own lots of cars,

• That you are successful when you own lots of properties,

• That you are successful when you work in or own a big company and earn a fat income , 

• That you are successful when you control both local and foreign currencies,etc.

I won't say these are not part of the things that make up ones success but I am glad to tell you today that it goes beyond this. 

Most of us do say " I want to be successful in life but we don't really have an insight of our pursuit, you are not sure of when to boldly stand to your feet and say " yes, I am a success. "

I will want us to quickly brush through some definitions of success which I believe will illuminate our way to getting to the actual root of this concept.

Success can be simply put as the accomplishment of an aim or purpose.

Success (the opposite of failure) is the status of having achieved and accomplished an aim or objective.


Being successful means the achievement of desired visions and planned goals. Furthermore, success can be a certain social status that describes a prosperous person that could also have gained fame for its favourable outcome. 

I want you to know that in life, I define my success and you define yours. There can never be a success without a vision, aim, goal or plans.

The best and the actual time to say you are successful is when your written goals and visions has been actualized and you are able to balance the essentials of life.

From a particular article I read sometimes ago, I got to discover that the life of a man rally around 8 major things which are :

» Self,

» Family,

» Friends,

» Business,

» Environment,

» Spiritual life,

» Material Things and

» Community.

To this effect, I will say that another way or time when you can stand to your feet and say you are successful is when you are able to deal with those 8 essentials listed above and get the best out of them.

> What kind of a successful man are you when you have money but your family is not in other ?

> What kind of a successful man are you when your environment speaks bad about you ?

> What kind of a successful man are you when you pocess all sort of material things but not in good terms with friend.

> What kind of a successful man are you when you pocess all sort of cars and houses and yet no happiness or joy.

To record a good success, everything about your life must be balanced.

To really say you are successful, all your goals and aims must have been achieved and also being at peace with your environment and yourself.

It is now of great necessity to call yourself to a cool place and ask yourself 

" what do I want to be successful at ?"

Don't be surprised when I say we have successful armed robbers which can not last long while we have successful business men also are successful family men. The choice is yours, choose what you want to be successful in.

Be informed that being successful in all ratification is also allowed based on you.
