What does success look like to you?

The vision of success? What a loaded question. I suppose it changes as I grow older.

When I was in my 20’s, success looked like a fulfilling career that pays well, a happy marriage, and having material things like a house, a car, and traveling for vacation at least twice a year. Now in my mid-30’s, I prefer success to be defined with adjectives such as peaceful, content, minimalistic, and simple.

In a way, I see success as a target board. Each day is an attempt to achieve it and there will be wins and losses. Some days will be closer to the bullseye while other days are a bit further. All are acceptable when put into perspective: tomorrow is another day of attempts towards success.
