What does it mean to be a successful author? A great leader? An excellent service provider? A good parent?

In the past, I often found myself chasing goals without pausing to ask, “What does ‘success’ mean to me personally?”

Today, I’m sharing a true story on my website that may shift how you define success.

I hope it brings you peace, relief, and permission to make your goals bigger, smaller, or simply different—based on what matters most to you.

Around the Internet
