In today’s world we are always striving for more. We have an idea that a new job, a promotion, a bigger house or a faster car will make us happier. We are constantly striving for success as we believe this will make us happier. Now don’t get me wrong… any or all of the above would be AMAZING, but where does it end?
How much success is enough?
It seems that there isn’t a limit. We are constantly wanting more and because of this we actually end up feeling that we aren’t successful and that we haven’t achieved great and worthwhile things. While these unsuccessful feelings often feel very real, they are often COMPLETELY UNTRUE!
We are so caught up in striving for more success that we end up feeling that we aren’t successful at all. This is a horrible feeling and one none of us deserve to feel, especially when we are trying so flipping hard!
Here are some quotes to prove that you are more successful than you think you are!
