I love to get movie DVDs that have an additional disc of just special features! Last night I watched all the documentaries about Howard Hughes, from the DVD “The Aviator”. The special features almost always contain tidbits of this idea or that idea that went into making the film. So often these features are inspiring and are just one place to trigger ideas of my own.
So much has been written about success. So many success programs, books, CDs, and other media exist on the subject. A Google search (06.29.10) on the keyword “success” returns over 335-million results.
The term is like one tiny star in the cosmos.
I think it’s safe to say that ‘success’ is/has been an over-used word throughout our human world and throughout (recorded) history.
It’s also fair to say that success means something different for each and every person, and yet most would agree that a simple and accurate definition might be: to obtain a desired result (or set of results).
Citizens the world over – for the most part – spend so much time “doing” that there is not sufficient time built in for “enjoying” (life). I know, it is not as if there were many choices in the matter; we all must do what is necessary to survive (and perhaps prosper?). At some point, however, there must be a compromise between “building a quality life” and “enjoying a quality of life”.
