So, recently a coach asked me to define what success means to me. You would think it is easy, but I choked on the question.
According to the dictionary, success is the "the accomplishment of an aim or purpose."
To me as an immigrant, coming to the US, adjusting to a new culture, leaning English, getting my MBA, having a home, driving a nice car - I'm successful, living the American dream.
But obviously, from the coach's perspective, my answer of "I'm already successful" is not what was expected.
But what is success? Is it a destination? Is it a direction?
I don't know.
I know that I am a driven person who sets goals and once those goals accomplished, go for the next goal. In that standard, I will never be successful or accomplished because I always want more.
What is success to you?
