Chart your own success course
Did yesterday's invitation to look forward to September 2015 get your attention? As fall begins and our summertime vision of learning to relax more and work less begins to fade, here are a few thoughts from this month's nightstand reading to move you towards your goals. Check out Success Trap: Rethink your ambitions to achieve greater personal and professional fulfillment (by Dr. Stan Katz & Aimee Liu). The authors suggest we "develop a personal and meaningful definition of success that allows us to thrive as well as strive." To lead this life, they recommend we accept responsibility for our choices, establish and have a sense of direction and clarity of purpose, understand what gives meaning to our life, and pursue/ accomplish things that are satisfying, gratifying and engage us in productive and worthwhile activity.
