YOU Get to Decide What Success Looks Like

What is success? ✅


We often have preconceived notions of what it looks like based on what society tells us:
👨🏽‍🎓 College education (even if we don’t use it)
🤑 Good paying job (even if the endless hours are killing us slowly)
🏡 Nice home (even if the mortgage is a major stressor)
🚘 Cool car
👶🏼👶🏽 Kids
💒 👰🏻 Marriage (even if it’s unhappy)
🦸🏻‍♂️🦸🏽‍♀️ A large group of friends (even if none of them truly know you)

Success is when you’re living a life that ignites a passion within you.


Here’s what success can also look like;
🚐 Living the van life (because you love it)
🧚🏼 A handful full of quality friendships (but no romantic partner)
🐕 🐩 Two dogs, no kids
🖼 Selling art on Etsy
👋🏻 Freedom to come and go as you please
☮️ Quiet mornings full of meditation
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👨‍👨‍👦‍👦👩‍👩‍👦 A great relationship with your family (where you can crash on their couch anytime)
☀️ Long afternoon walks
🌚 Quiet evenings
🫶🏻 Being true to yourself

You see, your success really is up to you. How do you define it? What do you need or want in your life? In what moments are you truly happy?

Success is when you’re living a life that ignites a passion within you. 💋 So many of us don’t get to do that. We’re so bound to the ideas that others have for us. We’re living up to expectations that we don’t even care about. And for what?

🗣 Succeed by listening to your inner voice, which can sometimes be difficult work
☁️ Succeed by following your dreams, even if they don’t make sense to others
✌🏼 Succeed by finding peace
😃 Succeed by cracking the happiness code
🤩 Succeed by living out loud
🥳 Succeed by your definition and celebrate when others succeed by theirs.
