But in case your shadow is hiding self sabotage in a Trojan horse that looks like logic, rejecting all positivity and anything that could advance you, here's why this is the more logical way of thinking. We all know Vincent Rank Good, right? Like the infamous Vincent Van Good, whose paintings are considered priceless. Meaning you offer a million dollars for one of his paintings and they will laugh you out of the museum and maybe call security on you. Yeah. He died broke. And it's rumored that some of his last words were, this sadness will last forever. He passed thinking himself an artistic failure. But lo and behold, after his passing, his work takes off. He's called a visionary, a genius. So the question becomes, at what point was he successful? Was it when the world noticed or was it when he finished the first painting? Neither. It was when he decided to act on his passions. It unfortunately good the world time to catch up. The world was late. But he was Vincent rank Gogh from the start. You see the Oxford definition is the achievement of an aim or purpose and And that's exactly why people will treat you and you will feel like a loser until you have some sort of outcome. But here's a definition that I feel is more reflective of reality. Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal. That's Earl Nightingale. It is choosing to be or do something and then doing it. Meaning the only time you're failing is when you're living someone else's life. Meaning the man who says he wants to be a garbage man and sets out to become a garbage man and becomes one and is fulfilled in his profession and wants to be tier. That man is a success And he's a success the moment he decides he wants to and starts working toward it. So for a lot of you, you might just right now be finding out that you are a success. You are somebody no. Do not wait for the world to tell you. How many world renowned successful people will have to stand up and say they were made fun of? They were considered a loser by society for years until they got their outcome. How many times will that have to happen until you realize society doesn't know what it's talking about? You need to follow your inner compass. And the second you stop to look at it and walk in the direction it's pointing, you are a success, as is Leticia.
