What does SUCCESS mean to you??

Monday, February 26th, 2007

Do you often look at successful people with a longing eye and wish you were like them?   Well dont, cos everybody can be successful in life.. no matter who they are. 

Success can be many things.  It can be a concept, an experience, a dream or something that you are trying to grasp at.  Success does not only mean being financially wealthy or having a high ranking position in a multinational company or being a tycoon.  The true essence of success is feeling satisfied and fulfilled internally.  it is not judged by external benchmarks.   

Each person has his or her own definition of success. Some might equate success with financial freedom, or to changing the status quo or even being able to raise their children well.  What is important is that you set your own standard and know what success means to you.

For me, being successful can be many things.  I consider myself pretty successful at my tender age of 27 yrs old.  Looking back, there were quite a few achievement that I’ve done & gained throughout this years.  Let’s see, I’ve graduated from University with quite a satisfying grade (although can be better, hehe..), working fulltime in jobs that I quite like, got married and settled down wif my beloved hubby, moved to a foreign country, learning new cultures, traditions and adjusted to it… Travelled to quite many countries.. and learning more things everyday that add knowledges and wisdoms to my life. Not to mention, I have a mother who really love me and family that cares.. friends that i can share my sorrows with or those i can have a crazy time with..   Of course, there are a few more goals that I still desire in life.. and yet to achieve so (like having my own business and expanding it - that’s one), but for now, i think i’m quite content wif life and I can sincerely say that I’m a "SUCCESS".. (*GRIN*…)

Got this forwarded email today.. sooo true..  To all the Gentlemen, pay attention and read on.. (you can now understand more about women and finally, all that questions will be answered.. haha..) Ladies.. dont you think it’s so true.. ??

The Common Beliefs Men Have About Women

Belief #1 - SHE’LL NEVER BE SATISFIED!

Truth:  Women are always looking for ways to make things better.  Dont take her suggestions as complaints or critisms, but as her desire to make the relationship or situation the best that it can be. 

Belief #2 - A STRONG CONFIDENT WOMAN DOESN’T NEED A MAN TO TAKE CARE OF HER!

Truth:  Everyone loves to be taken care of and to feel needed.  Even if a woman can fix things around the house or change her car’s flat tyre, she will still ask for your helf so she can find your strenght, support and protection.  Don’t ever stop asking, "WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?"  because it shows her that you care.

Belief #3 - WOMEN ONLY WANT TO CONTROL MEN!

Truth:  It’s not about CONTROL, it’s about LOVE.  When a woman sees her man hurting, struggling or overwhelmed, her goal is to help, not control.  Let her give you a helping hand.

Belief #4 - KEEPING A WOMAN REQUIRES A LOT OF HARD WORK, TIME AND MONEY $$!

Truth:  A serious relationship requires a lot of hard work, time and effort to cultivate it.  You shouldn’t look at it as a burden.  Your wife or girlfriend will reciprocate the effort you put into it. 

Belief #5 - YOU CAN’T LIE TO WOMEN!

Truth:  Women are extremely capable of picking up moods and attitudes and can easily read body language and facial expressions.  Although you may think that you have gotten away with a great lie, she’s either letting it slide because she wants to keep the peace, or she’s lying to herself because she’s afraid of the truth. 

Belief #6 - JEALOUSY & POSSESIVENESS ARE PART OF BEING A WOMAN!

Truth:  Women are protective of what belongs to them.  They protect the things they value, especially when it comes to relationship.  It’s not that she doesn’t trust you, she’s guarding the relationship as you are too precious to her for her to allow anything bad to happen.

Belief #7 - WOMEN ARE EMOTIONAL!

Truth:  Women don’t hide their feelings.  They articulate what’s going on in their minds.  There’s nothing wrong with emotions - WE ALL HAVE THEM.  Being in touch with their emotions causes women to be sensitive and caring, and that’s why MEN "LOVES" THEM.
