Hungry


011111


A word is just a bunch of letters arranged next to each other unless you give a meaning to it. You may pronounce a word a thousand times, but the sound will remain a hollow echo unless you define the word with conviction, and believe in its meaning with passion.

SUCCESS
suc.cess /səkˈses/

Merriam-Webster defines the word as

1 obsolete : outcome, result

2 a : degree or measure of succeeding
   b : favorable or desired outcome; also : the attainment of wealth, favor, or eminence

3  : one that succeeds



People define success differently. Some needs fame and wealth. Some wants dame and health. Define the word as you may, but never live according to the definition of others. Set your own terms, find your own meaning, define your own success. 

I am successful when I : Protect my heart from harboring bitterness toward God or a person. Spend my day making my loved ones proud and others happy. Learn new wisdom from anyone at all, anywhere at all. Find joy in the simplest of things, with full gratitude.

I am successful when I'm happy.

And at this point of time I'm hungry for success. I don't wish for it. I want it. And I want it badly.

Success. Success. Success.
You may pronounce the word a thousand times, but the sound will remain a hollow echo unless you define the word with conviction.

What is your definition of success?


"In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure. Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success."

Dear Myra,
Success comes into different form, I agree. But it brings a whole new definition when knowing that success comes with another sexy word- satisfaction, no?

I'll always pray for your (oh read: OUR) success!
