Success is the topic we’re exploring this month on the blog. Apparently, we’re in good company. In this month’s Real Simple magazine they shared the results of “The Success Poll.
Real Simple and Timeasked 1,000 women and 300 men to weigh in on success issues including questions about work, life, ambition, finances, and time.
Nearly two-thirds of women said that success was “a never-ending pursuit rather than a defined goal.”
One particular question caught my attention, which I’d like to share with you. Women were asked to define success. Their top three responses were:
1. “Accomplishing your goals and dreams.”
2. “Being at peace.”
3. “Having financial stability.”
About a year ago, my good friend and colleague, Geralin Thomas interviewed me for her Managing Modern Life® Organizing Blog as part of the “Professional Organizing Business Models” series. She asked, “Do you consider yourself successful and why or why not?” Click here to read my response.
What does success mean to you? What are your top three responses or definition of success? I’d love to hear your thoughts. Come join the conversation.
