But what exactly is success? There are so many definitions. The word success is a lot like the word Love. You can’t exactly quantify it but you are aware and know what it exactly feels like. I have read so many books on success. I’ve attended lectures, seminars, watched videos, listened to audio tapes, have had endless discussions and have been taught and mentored as well. In all my learning I have found, in my opinion, the best definition of success:

"Success is the Progressive Realization of Worthy Ideals."

Let’s break that down. Progressive means an Ongoing Development, a Continuous Improvement and Advancement; an Evolution, a Step Forward that never ends. Realization means a Becoming, an Attainment, a Completion and an Accomplishment. Worthy means Admirable and ideal stands for Principles or Standards.

Now, I want you to picture this. Picture yourself at the end of your life. And your life, like any other life, is a story. A story wherein you star, you write and you produce. Now imagine yourself standing above the people that are most important to you, and the people that feel you are most important to them. How will your story go? What will they say? What would you like them to say? How would you like your story to be told?

How to Use this Site?

The main themes of this site are:

• Business and Entrepreneurship Success

• Career Development and Success

• Money and Investment Success

• Health and Fitness

• Relationships and Parenting

The goal is to gain enough wisdom in these areas, through continuous learning, to achieve a successful and balanced life. Success may mean different things to different people. Some would call themselves successful if they had money and others may feel successful if they had healthy relationships. But why not have it all? Is happiness in All Areas of Your Life too much to ask? I don't think so.

The goal is not to aim for perfection. The knowledge here will not teach you to be perfect. We will all make mistakes. Wisdom doesn't teach you to be perfect. Wisdom teaches you what exactly to do in your life.

In martial arts, the highest achievement of a student is to have a Black Belt. The preceding belts below that mark would be a Brown and a Blue. Let's say John Doe is a rich man. He is a black belt when it comes to money. But John has no meaningful relationships in life and is unhealthy. John is miserable. Would you consider John to be successful? Would John trade in his Money Black Belt to have a Brown or Blue Belt in the other Areas of his Life?

Success Development is takes work. There are no short cuts, quick fixes nor cheat strategies. Success takes time, commitment, dedication and a great willingness to learn. But you can do it. It's not impossible to have happiness and success in all areas of your life.

What Belt Are You?

What Belt in what Area are you? John is a Black Belt in Money and a Zero Belt in Health and Relationships. Let's list down the Belts. We'll use the belt system in Karate, one of the oldest martial arts in history.

Black - Expert. Proven success in a field over and over again. Warren Buffet would be considered a Black Belt in Money and Investing.

Brown - Successful. Has proven success in an area and still progressing towards more success.

Green to Blue - Getting there. Progressively learning and applying the learning. Has had small successes and continuously working to have more.

White to Yellow - Getting started. Has a keen willingness to learn and has made the decision to start.

Now ask yourself What Belt Are You in What Area of Your Life? What do you have to work on? How much time and effort will you give to the other areas? What do you hope to achieve as you progress on the belts?

If you are in the upper belts, feel free to contribute and if you are in the lower belts, feel free to learn. The important thing is that We All Get There.

Here's to Your Success!
