How to Measure True Success
The feeling of true success often eludes even the highly skilled professionals in fields of music, art, acting and athletics. Part of the reason is because of the emphasis on incorrect measurement of genuine accomplishment. While material wealth and awards hold their appeal, they often fail to provide true and lasting satisfaction. Another contributing factor is the tendency to constantly compare ourselves to others.
In many organizations, there are select individuals who earn significantly higher incomes or receive special privileges due to their leadership roles. This arrangement makes sense, especially given that these individuals grapple with unique challenges. However, for those observing from the outside, it can create a perception that unless you belong to these exclusive groups, you fall short in terms of success. This mindset can easily permeate one’s thoughts and actions, leading to a skewed perspective of what genuine achievement entails.
Before we delve into defining five valid measures of genuine success, let’s first explore five misguided approaches often used to gauge success. Relying on these misleading criteria can result in feelings of emptiness, confusion, and even disillusionment.
