170626 - Motivation Monday - "Success"

Success is in the eye of the beholder! The thing that looks like success for one person might not even come close to meeting the standards of success for another. When you look at our PR board and see all of the amazing accomplishments, do you consider how much work it took to get there? Those personal records didn't come over night and nor does any success in life! Regardless of your own definition of success that you put on yourself and others, there's no denying that it comes from hard work. It comes from disappointments, determination, dedication, and sacrifices. This is why we can't compare ourselves to others in terms of success. We can see the tip of the iceberg that is the outward appearance of success but have no way of knowing all of the complex "stuff" below the surface which makes up the bulk of it. Keep that in mind as you progress through life and your fitness journey. Find out exactly what "SUCCESS" means to you and work towards that independent of others. In this way, once you reach that point, you'll be happy for yourself and not seeking the approval of others who have their own thoughts (probably different from yours) of what success should look like.
