What is the definition of success? To me, it is to go for what you feel you are and therefore to unfold your potential for the benefit of everyone.
I am sure that there is no one in this world who doesn’t want to be successful and to see the unfolding of what they are doing. What makes something we do in our life successful? Is it to follow traditional rules, go to school, learn a job, get married, buy a house, and raise kids…? Is it to find a way of making a lot of money and to live a luxurious life? Is it to show others that you are special in certain things and become a famous painter, singer, author, manager, or soccer player? Is it to support social facilities, work for welfare groups, or to go into politics and become president of a country? It is all of it and much more!!! It only depends on the person that stands behind these plans and ideas.
For the next weeks, I will explain five ways that lead to success in every part of your life. There is no ranking within the chapters since they are all connected. I am starting today with: Belief in you!
The secret of all successful people has never been to only make a lot of money and to sell themselves for an idea. Their success has always been lying in believing in their ideas, in loving what they do, in following their conviction, in not giving up when they are struggling at times, and in not believing the opinions of others who don’t agree with their own.
It is important for you to know, that your ideas are there as a reminder of what’s in your backpack for this lifetime. Don’t be scared only because you are obviously the first one to have an idea, a feeling, or the wish to do something no one in your family has ever done before. There is always a person that needs to be the first one that inspires others to believe in themselves, lives their dreams, and force evolution. It doesn’t matter if anyone supports your idea of starting a project. Only you are you and only you know what your dreams and wishes are. If you are scared that your friends or relative could criticize you or talk you out of your plans so just don’t tell anyone in advance. This is what I do. I know exactly when I want to step into a new adventure. I am not interested in discussing whether it is worth going for something or not since others can impossibly understand or judge my motivation.
Embrace the idea of your dream and be sure it only has grown inside of you because it is part of your being. Believe in yourself, believe in your feelings. Anyway, how things turn out: On the road to your purpose you can never fail but gain all the skills and experience that propel your forward.
Next week I am going to write about Authenticity
In Love and Light!

Loved the line where you talk about your ideas being in your backpack for this lifetime. I so so agree about just starting on projects without people telling you 100 different ways why you should not venture. Lovely post and great takeaways😆😆

The first point is the most important and essential and you penned it wonderfully. Believing in yourself is first step of every big or small task, because the world may not know your potential but you always know that it’s there. You just have got to kindle it.
Looking forward to more my friend 🙂

You said it perfectly: “the world may not know your potential but you always know that it’s there.” We need to be aware that only the individual is able to know it. Thank you, Kritika. Your comment means a lot to me. Thank you for reading 🙂
