Thirty years ago, I bought a program called The Dynamics of Personal Goal Setting, marketed by the Success Motivation Institute.

I did not become a habitual goal setter as a result, but I learned an excellent definition of success.

Success is the progressive realization of worthwhile personal goals. ~Paul J Meyer

It wasn’t until two years ago, with the help of a Toastmaster friend and a book she highly recommended that I was able to translate that wonderful definition into one word, and a workable plan.

I wrote about it in a story I published on The Ascent, a few months ago. It was curated and distributed in Self.

As always, thank you for reading and responding. You might enjoy these related stories as well.

You can let others tell you what it means to be successful, or you can decide it for yourself.”
