When you get right down to it, your sense of success will depend on things like your energy level, how you've lived life to this point, and whether you feel motivated to do new things. If your mental views of success are distorted away from what you really hope to do, you're likely familiar with and discouraged by distorted results.

As you review your understanding of morality (your perception of right and wrong), justice (how you view acceptable and unacceptable), and ownership (your view of desireable or undesireable), you will gain a deeper insight into your different ideas of success. People often forget they experience varying degrees of success in their lives because each of us has different ideas of what is possible at a given time. Do you use your own standard for success or are you influenced by other people? In this sense, success can be partly measured by how you become more aware of your beliefs and the process of expressing them or going after them.

success you can see and touch: this kind of success is measured in quantity, size, cost and status based on materialism and financial value. You can count and appraise what you have and also compare what you've got to what others have in order to evaluate how real and precious it is.

success you can feel inside: this kind of success is measured by qualitative emotions and gestures based on your connection to people, places, ideas and experiences. You depend on inuition, your sixth sense and reciprocity or reverberrations to tell you how real it is.

success you can detect in self-awareness: this kind of success is measured in how well you get-to-know youself. How content you are with your choices reveals how well you know your needs and desires are understood and met. How attuned you are to your feelings and what you accept or deny in yourself also reveals degrees of truth.

success you can map in progress: this kind of success is measured by physical and mental development. It often helps to explain your individual sense of personal growth, level of health and well-being.If you've been ill or injured, your rate of approaching full recovery is measured by things like dexterity, motor skills, appetite and renewed strength. Your baseline was the past. You could always surpass that.

success you can anticipate: this kind of success is measured by what you attract with your positive thinking, accompanying mindset and attitude. You use your hopes and dreams and how close you feel as a success gauge.
