It's not until you see what a great job and your son and daughter are doing with their children, then you get this warm feeling that you've done a good job in life. Life is crazy and priorities change year after year , decade to decade, we often measure our life success on many things, financial capability and career growth is how a large part of we measure success. I offer to resurface one "new" measure, its "what you leave behind". When you're able to sit back in a chair and watch your children raise and play with your grandchildren, then you'll finally recognize that the those little success factors simply merge into one. Unfortunately we all have to see this for ourselves to understand and believe it, but If I am judged by what I left behind, I feel I have been very successful. Just ask the elderly gentleman that has been retired for 24 years how he will measure success? I don't think it will be the position he held when he left the job market. I am blessed, thank you very much to my loved ones that continue to make me feel successful. Food for thought, then we have to get back to business....
