I was born with the idea that in life you had to be successful,

Dream of success, The secret to success, Be successful, You will achieve success, he/she was successful , How to be successful, The key to success..

In total honesty I hate the word success.

I hate the world success because it means your achievement was recognized by others

I hate the word success because it means that if I would have failed all the work before didn’t mean nothing

I hate the word success and it’s unconscious connection with money

I hate the word success and the idea that you then achieved popularity

I hate the word success linked to only one big achievement

I hate the phrase “being successful in life” because it means you did something important, profitable and/or popular

At the same time, I get the word success

I get that success equals accomplishment

I get that success means hardworking

I get that success it’s not just about money

As long as I hate that word I know it’s there

It means you achieved everything and nothing

Success means what you want it to mean not what others want

I make the reasons why I hate the word success be the ones to redefine the word SUCCESS.
