Success is a very personal thing,true success is about being fulfilled in life.It's that feeling of deep satisfaction that starts in your soul, radiates through your being. End result is true happiness and peace of mind. There is no greater feeling to look back toward the end of your life with a "smile in your heart," knowing many of your dreams came true, that you made a positive difference in the lives of others.

There are many ways to reach your goals. Not just one. If you encounter problems & dead ends, that doesn't mean it's the end! Just means, you need to find a new way or path that gets you a little bit closer to your goal. No one gets there the same way! Success comes with trial, failure, learning, fine-tuning, & persistence. You find a smoother path leading to success w/ persistance, will, & trying different ways! :)
