How I Measure Success

A man’s success is not measured by his money or what his money can do for him. Success is measured by the number of friends you have. You are on the right path if you are in a comfortable place with a roof over your head.

Success for some people is to see how much money they can amass over a lifetime. Their money has done nothing to benefit others. Their money is stale and moldy from doing nothing but sitting around. Money truly is the root of all evil. Money controls and takes away valuable hours from a man. The man becomes abscessed with keeping his fortune intact and has lost touch with his family and friends.

If you had to deceive or take advantage of someone to get to where you are, you are not successful in any measure. Success is treating people with the utmost respect. Victory is being comfortable with who you are and knowing you did not take advantage of people. Give to charities that help people have a better life. Live the life God wants you to live, which is the accurate measure of success.

Success is being the best person that you can be. Take time to talk to people; they will enrich your life for many years. Your elders have a much clearer sense of the true meaning of success. You succeed in life if you are kind, gentle, compassionate, loving, and caring.

 

My connection to and serving God in my life are vital. Anything you wish to achieve without God will not get done. God motivates us to our peak levels of success in what he has planned for our lives.

Psalms

1 : 3

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, bringing forth the fruit in his season; his leaf shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

2 Thessalonians

1: 11 – 12

Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:

That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
