How is the journey going?
I have thought a lot about success lately. I used to put a lot of emphasis on creating a successful life but never really created my own definition. I thought success was what EVERYONE else was doing and I needed to copy the magic mixture.
Go to college --> Get a degree --> Get a "good" job --> Start a 401k --> Get married at 25 --> Have babies at 27 --> Continue working your "good" job --> Find the balance of work and life --> Stay happy --> Self Care --> Rinse and repeat.
This mixture is not for everyone and the timeline usually does not happen in the order most humans expect it follow. Cyndi is spot on. It is not the graph and we need to focus more on the journey instead of the milestones we are "expected" to reach. We need to focus on the milestones of humans we connect with and how we are making a difference in their world, our own world and the rest of the world we live in.
If you are feeling burned out, if you are feeling uneasy, if you are feeling unfulfilled and if you are feeling there has to be more to life than what you are experiencing right now - I hope you take a hard look at the journey you are on and rethink your route. It is never too late to change course and create your own magic mixture toward what success means to you.
