We tend to measure success by material things, number of followers/engagement rate, amount of certificates and medals. Everyone wants to be a champion at everything... Exhausting.

"Do this, do that."
Who guarantees we will succeed by using the same path? We all have different timelines, we come from different places, have completely distinct experiences, and we are living in different cycles — simultaneously.

I prefer to see success from a different perspective:

Success is refusing to be trapped in a rat race of a corporate career, and deciding to do what you love.

Success is having emotional intelligence and making decisions without causing pain and suffering to others.

Success is having personal accountability and understanding that there is no running away from karma.

Success is managing your schedule in a way that you spend more time with your friends than on social media.

Success is the wisdom of being grateful for the small things in life: the comfort of your bed, a hot shower, a snack while watching your favorite show, a call from someone that will make you smile from ear to ear: “Let’s go for a walk?”

Success is being happy without a reason, being important to someone by having interest in their lives, and being open to the miracles that are waiting for you.

When you get home from work and someone is cooking: "How was your day? Here, try this!"

Your cat or your dog is looking at you: "I trust you!"

Your pet excitement when you get home

A hot shower

The sound of rain

Your mom's hug 

Your crush likes your picture and leaves an emoji

The last piece of a chocolate bar

You have a tax refund

Your best friend's text message: "What are you up to?"

A good meme

Your first unread DMs being from the people you love the most

A glass of water

The sound of "tudum" when you open Netflix

Snacking while watching your favorite show

Rewatch one of your favorite movies and always be impressed by the same parts.

Your own company

Someone else's company

Cuddling

Waking up in the morning and someone says: pass me my phone, instead of good morning, (I'm not laughing, you are).

The silence

The noise

A glass of wine and a good book

Your content went viral

Your Uber is 1 min away

"Your food is here"

A nice haircut

Your battery is 100%

You wake up in the middle of the night and you still have 5 hours of sleep ahead.

You don't need to set up your alarm clock for the next morning

Fall asleep in the arms of someone you love, and love someone until they fall asleep in yours.
