41. Success is subjective

 Pretty sure everybody wants to be successful in their lives. I do, I want to have a career while spending all the time I can with family and friends. I want to be able to support myself without needing anybody to help me. In my eyes that will make me a success, in other people's eyes success means a big house or winning a marathon.


41. Success is subjective
If anybody has ever made you feel as if what you have accomplished so far in your life means nothing then they suck. Sucky people are the kind of people who believe being in first place is the only way you can call yourself a winner or consider yourself successful. There are so many situations where for some people just finishing the race means they succeeded or just attempting something they have never done before means they won. Steps even baby steps means we are moving which is really all we can do. Success is subjective, which means it only matters what you think about the goals you have set for yourself. So no your not a loser if your not married right after you graduate college, if your 35 still trying to find a career you like, or if your 40 going back to college. Don't think you failed at life if your 24 still needing support from your parents and never think your too old to admit you need help. Don't be sucky by hating where you are because it's not where you think you should be and yes you can be a sucky person towards yourself. Put down the imaginary scale your measuring yourself against and keep it moving!

Another Sunday  has come and brought the beginning of a new week. Sadly the Colts have a bye week this week and will not be playing today which is actually good for me because I should study for my test tomorrow. Oh I should also write a paper I meant to start weeks ago :/. I hope some people out there are having a crazy funday Sunday since I can't. Next Sunday I will be somewhere tipsy in front of a television watching the Colts take on the Texans and actually win this time. I should be scared to drink since I haven't in oh going on three weeks, I will probably have one beer and be wasted. But Halloween plus an awesome Colts game will mean a good weekend next weekend so please say this week flies by.

  1. I totally agree with your idea of success! I think that's what most 20 something year olds want-financial stability and independence.
    Hope next weekend is better for you! : )

  3. Wow, I just had to wrestle with this today during a meltdown. Blogged about it, too, but from a different side. Love your blog, so glad I stumbled across it.
