Ok, so you tested your attitude towards success, how did you fare?  Before taking the test did you feel that you knew what success meant to you?

When I first read the title I thought to myself hhhmmm, I know that success can mean different things to different people but what does it REALLY mean to me.  If someone were to ask me today what my definition of success was I might stumble on my words but only because so many different things come to mind when I think of success for myself.
I can consider myself successful because I have accomplished a specific goal and I am absolutely exstatic with myself for seeing things through or I can consider myself successful because I am doing what I want to do in life and not what other people expect that I should do and I am feeling really good about my decisions in life over all, good and the bad because I learned from past mistakes.
What did you learn about yourself when you took this test?

were you disappointed with the outcome?

Is there some truth to the outcome for you?

Did you fall within the category you expected to be in?
If you found through the test that you might need to change your attitude towards success, were you also able to put your finger on what your specific obstacles to success are?
Stop by and share your results if you don’t mind doing so, leave a comment, share areas where you could stand to improve or need encouragement or reinforcement when it comes to viewing success for yourself.  We all in some way are striving for success in something whether we realize it at the time or not and we might be our own worst enemy to obtaining success if we are not of the right mindset for receiving and stepping into our lifes purpose, ultimately achieving success by determing our lifes course and on our own terms.
If you have bouts of self-doubt or tend to cronically procrastinate or constantly push your goals ahead to be completed another day then you are standing in your own way to achieving the success that you want and desire.

Take a moment out this week to write down at least three things that you would really like to do in your life that would make you feel successful and feel a sense of accomplishment, then start making baby steps towards achieving this goal by creating long and short term goals, then break your short term goals down into small measurable steps that make sense to you and that you feel you can easily achieve.

Success for you might be something different then it is for someone else but ultimately, so long as you have accomplished your intended purpose following the goal that you had set forward to complete then you can consider that achievement a success.
