Success has no meaning unless...

Whatever you do - whatever you achieve - wherever you reach - doesn't matter - unless it is...


S I G N I F I C A N T ! ! !

[ meaningful; a major influence or effect; large amount or quantity; not caused by chance; have a major effect; important, notable, momentous; of consequence...]
  
Success is often the illusion we see when we dream of what we think will make us happy. 

But when we check today - about the people, places, things around us - we will find that nothing else matters, but those things that are significant to us??

I don't think many of us will reach for excellence or greatness let alone ever achieve it. Many of us will live "quite" lives - but in the end we will all have found some significance.  

Achieving big is a nice idea, sure we should, I guess, try to. But for those who just achieve normal - don't feel bad...that's what I do and I am happy as well. 

You may not lose all the weight you want, find the man or woman of your dreams, or make a million dollars. But you will be able to say " I was here and I did my best!"

At the end, significance is the only thing that matters any way... no matter what anyone else says.


Seize today, the moment, this second...
But reach for significance not success.
