What kind of success do you want?

Everyone wants to be successful!There's no doubt about that!! But what kind of success? Is it achievement of the highest honor or the accomplishment of something you have always dreamed of? Is it a standard we set for ourselves or one that society sets for us? Its probably a mixture of both. When we're measuring someone else's success we look at the medals on his walls, the large mansion he has or the kind of car he has in his driveway. How often do we look at the person he is? How often do we look up to the success of a man who may be a sweeper.. his so called achievements daily would be a clean floor, there are no medals to prove that, there is most definitely no large house or vehicle that can show the measure of his success. But sometimes there is way more success there than in that large mansion. In today's world a man's worth is measured by mere worldly things; things that money can buy. Which means we're really associating success with the guy...

You can use a word to hurt someone, make them laugh, cry,smile, or even something drastic like wanting to kill you!:) So we humans use words to communicate; but are all our communication skills awesome? NO!! & yet we think this is the best way! No wonder we're constantly misunderstanding/misinterpreting what the other person is trying to say! There are a lot of aspects to consider while using words.. TONE - Tone is a very important thing! It could change the meaning of what your saying entirely! Lets look at tone in categories of people when they argue: A - SCREAMERS ...
