When I talk to people my age and we talk about success, many people talk about their dream careers, having a lot of money, one day owning a mansion and driving the most expensive cars. When I think about what success is, I think about happiness. I think about being truly fulfilled. For me, fulfillment and happiness comes from helping others. Success isn't about the materialistic things you own, it is beyond that. It is said in the bible that we are given a gift from God, It may be our talents, it may be our presence, it may be our influence but whatever it is, it is a gift meant to change the life of others. A gift that must be used to make an impact. When we think about only ourselves then we aren't living the lives we are meant to live;we are living a life without purpose. To help someone means giving to that person whatever you can without the intention of getting anything in return. Aside from all the gifts God has granted me, he has granted me the gift of help. Happiness for me is being able to make a difference in the life of another person. Happiness is the key to success. Success is the platform for prosperity. Prosperity isn't how much money you have, it is rather the difference you make in the lives of others.
( inspired quote:1 Peter4:10.)
