Pathway to Success

A day's reflection on the word 'success'

I'm not even going to define it, but this is my thought about success ... to forge our mighty visions and dreams though checkered by defeat... We need something to believe in, for which we give wholehearted enthusiasm. Like believing in success, until we find it.

Even those born with a silver spoon want to succeed at something, one way or another. The fact is, we are all struggling to succeed despite the differences in forces we individually apply through the strengths of our drives. Our lives are confronted with major and minor challenges that interfere with our path to success. Sometimes these challenges hinder us, but other times they encourage us when we see them as opportunities, a part of our growth and learning experience.


Everyone has his or her own thoughts about what success is. What is success to you?

Most likely have your own thoughts about your pathway to success. Newspapers, magazines and the internet are all full of it - success stories and testimonials. Almost everyday, we hear of people who started small business or an adventure with hardly any financial backings or other obvious advantages, but are simply courageous and have the persistence and dedication to pursue their dreams.

At the moment, here's my random thought I consider related to my success pathway ...   

My path forward is as certain as far as my commitment. I can only derive my strength, enthusiasm and motivation from God, especially when things are not what they seem and when times are so troubled. He did not promise skies always blue, but He did promise unfailing sympathy and undying love. With this in mind, I face my day to day challenges. And as I go through my own passage, I trust that I'll arrive at a proper destination, content and at peace.
