“Beauty in the eye of the beholder?" I say now “Success in the eye of the Beholder”

Success has come to be to many different things to different people. You don’t really know who is actually successful and who isn’t.

That mother working her household with the 3 kids and working husband deems herself to be truly successful because of what she is doing for others. Other career women may see as demining herself and would express that she is reversing feminism. But truly if you would put yourself in her shoes you can see that she is successfully, conscientiously, and diligently giving purpose to her life.

That man working as a gardener with his earphones usually will be judged as a person with no education and no intelligence. Yes I agree it doesn’t take to much intelligence to cut grass or to push a lawnmower but have you been in that minds head. He would be doing quantum physics while he cuts your yard, he can be reciting a whole sonnet of Shakespeare while he trims your tree, he can be deciphering the most complicated mathematical question while watering your flowers. Again to judge a book by its cover is never the smartest thing to do.

Now a days I don't believe that going to college getting a degree then getting a job makes a success, or even becoming rich and famous makes you a success (ok maybe I'm lying).

Success now is on how you look at it and how you feel about it. I'm not saying its being content with your life and settling for what you have. I cant even give you an explination of what the feeling might be I just know that no one or any one can ever tell you if you are a success story. Only you can feel if you are.
