Success vs. Significance
I had a long conversation with my 10yr old the other day. It went something like this:
“Your success in life will never be determined by how smart you are, or how cool you are. It will always be determined by the difference you make in the lives of others. You have the power every day to make someone’s day, or to break it. To lift them up, or bring them down. The choice is yours. And you don’t need education, looks, or money to do it.
We often measure success in terms of money, and things and titles. All of those are great things, but they alone will be empty without significance. You can have success AND significance, but you won’t ever feel fully fulfilled with success only.
Your level of significance comes from how you connect with people.”
Here is a great example of how simple it really is. It’s a bit long, but I encourage you to watch it in its entirety. It is well worth it!
