SUCCESS 101
Striving Towards True Happiness=
Welcome back to our weekly SUCCESS 101 blog series. Today, we delve deeper into the journey of success, emphasising that happiness is found in the doing—not merely in possessing. This insight aligns perfectly with the idea that money cannot buy happiness. While many of us aspire to certain lifestyles for ourselves and our families, it's not the physical possessions—homes, vacations, automobiles—that truly motivate us. Instead, it's the pursuit of these aspirations that brings us joy and fulfilment.
As we explore this concept further, let’s revisit the core of our program, the '3 Pillars of Success': health, wealth, and happiness. Each pillar plays a crucial role in our overall sense of achievement and well-being.
- Imagination is the most powerful force in the universe -
Health: The Foundation of Success
Your health is your wealth. Without a sound mind and body, the pursuit of any goal becomes significantly more challenging. In our blog on Human Being vs. Being Human, we discussed the importance of aligning our actions with our true nature and needs. It is essential to prioritize physical well-being through regular exercise, a balanced diet, and adequate rest. Mental health is equally important, necessitating mindfulness practices, stress management, and seeking support when needed. By maintaining robust health, we lay a solid foundation upon which we can build our dreams.

Wealth: A Means, Not an End
Wealth, often misconstrued as the ultimate goal, is merely a tool to facilitate the life we desire. Our Wealth 101 series emphasises that financial success should not be the end-all-be-all. Instead, wealth should support our endeavours, provide security, and enable us to give back to our communities. It's about creating value, not just accumulating riches. True wealth comes from developing a mindset that blends financial acumen with generosity and responsibility. By doing so, we ensure that our pursuit of wealth contributes positively to our lives and those around us.
- You can have everything in life you want, if you just help enough other people get what they want -
Happiness: The Ultimate Measure of Success
Success is being happy with what you have while you pursue all that you want. Happiness is always just a stone throw away when we focus on the journey rather than the destination. Psychological studies have consistently shown that our happiest moments occur when we are confidently striving toward a goal. This dynamic aligns with John Sculley's famous quote, “Success is a journey, not a destination. Make sure you enjoy the trip.”
The Tale of Two Seeds: A Lesson in Happiness
The simple yet profound tale of two seeds perfectly illustrates the nature of happiness and the choices we make in its pursuit. The first seed, despite the risks and uncertainties, chose to grow and experience life, embodying the essence of taking action and embracing the journey. In contrast, the second seed, driven by fear, chose inaction, ultimately leading to its demise. This story underscores the importance of courage and the willingness to take risks as we strive toward our goals.
Aligning Success with True Joy
In our blog Finding Your True Joy, we explored how aligning our actions with our inner desires leads to genuine happiness. True joy is not found in the mere accumulation of possessions but in the pursuit of meaningful goals and the personal growth that accompanies this journey. It is about discovering what brings us true fulfilment and dedicating ourselves to those pursuits.
Continuously Striving for More
Recognising that happiness is found in the pursuit itself, we must constantly raise the bar to encourage ourselves to reach higher goals. This continuous striving keeps us motivated and engaged, ensuring that we are always growing and evolving. Our goals should include the possessions we desire, but they should also encompass personal growth, relationships, and contributions to our communities.
Enjoying the Journey
As we continue our journey towards success, remember that true happiness lies in the doing. Embrace the process, celebrate your progress, and keep striving towards your goals. The '3 Pillars of Success'—health, wealth, and happiness—are interconnected, each enhancing and supporting the others. By focusing on these pillars, we can build a fulfilling and successful life.
Moving Forward Toward Your Future
Happiness is not a destination but a journey. It's about making conscious choices to grow, overcome fear, and live fully. The story of the two seeds reminds us that we have the power to choose our path. Will you be like the first seed, embracing growth and experiencing the fullness of life, or will you let fear keep you buried in the ground?
Remember, you are the master of your fate. By taking intentional steps towards your happiness, you can create a life filled with joy, purpose, and fulfilment. Don't wait for the perfect moment—start now, and let your happiness bloom.
