How to Measure Wealth & Success

How to Measure Wealth & Success

Don’t be so serious

Occasionally do something silly or spontaneous. If you’re worried that you’re not being the perfect mother, wife, or friend, then feelings such as frustration, failure, and guilt will radiate outward. Let the “child” in you take over – let go, play, and laugh. Go bicycling, have a food fight, do cart-wheels, or face painting. Give yourself a gift and glean wealth and success from your happiness. Thank the Lord for the blessings that He has already given you.

Give What You Want to Have

Gain wealth and success by giving of yourself to others. If your girlfriend needs cheering up, take her out dancing. Make Sunday morning breakfast and bring it to your husband in bed. Smile at a stranger in the grocery store. I’ll bet you $100 that you’ll get a smile or a nod back. Say good morning to your neighbor or help carry their groceries in. When you decide to serve others, you enrich their lives. How amazing it is to get back more in return. Bottom line.....YOU feel valued, happy, successful and wealthy. Give to others what you would like to receive.

Take Responsibility

If you feel envious of others and their wealth, it might be because you’ve neglected to take responsibility for your own life. Keep in mind that wealth isn’t measured by money alone. Wealth is also measured by your circle of family and friends, your loving pets, the causes and people you support, and even the picture you painted. If you don’t feel successful, then change. Get a new hairdo and buy a new dress, volunteer, and buy your sick friend some flowers. Success is also measured by happiness. The old saying, “money cant buy happiness” is right on the money!

Be successful and wealthy with what you have.
