What about pleasure - is this success? The person who seems to have the freedom to do what they want when they want and how they want can sometimes seem like they have a life that has it all. However, you only have to ask the person who has had a failed relationship that it is all okay for a short time and then secretly when it all starts to sound the same and no longer satisfies - that person would quickly be happier to here the sounds of a car door closing and familiar steps coming up the stairs at night. Is pleasure along the journey wrong, absolutely not, it is more when the longing for a false pleasure leads a person to make quick and impulsive decisions that can have a long term and sometimes devastating impact on their life or their family if they have one.

What about prestige is this the definition of Success? To be known and recognised? Many people who have it can tell you that prestige can be very fleeting. You only have to pause and take notice of what some of the media can do to beautiful people by portraying them in the worst possible light! Would you say that is success?

What about position, is this the definition of success? Some say that it is. I have known many people in prominent positions but I am not convinced they succeeded. And then I know some amazing people who are still criticised and worse condemned for introducing positive change, so position doesn't always mean you are a success either.

What about prosperity, is this the definition of Success? Materialism is a problem today. Yet possessing things and having money aren't wrong. Its only when we get preoccupied with those things we begin to miss the purpose and meaning of life. John Steinbeck says ''If you want to destroy a nation, give it too much and watch it fall to its knees, miserable and sick''. An interesting thought. I certainly find it sad to know so many families are working so hard to pay for things they don't often have much time to use. Less debt and the accumulation of stuff can make for a happier life. Something to ponder for some of us.

Is Power the secret to Success?
There are hundreds of 'Successful' business people with enormous power - along with broken marriages and failing families. The common philosophy is that if you are going to succeed in business, you have to forfeit success in other areas of your life. I don't buy that. A truly successful person doesn't have to sacrifice his or her family. Can you think of someone like that?

The definitions of success are always interesting. The usual answers are money, position, influence, climbing the corporate ladder or the one who has the most toys wins! What is your definition of success?

You are constantly moving toward your concept of success - but is it the right concept? Your concept of success has been developed and conditioned over the years by the media, your family upbringing, your peers, associates and various experiences. Therefore, what is the first thing that comes to mind that you know must change?

As a Life Coach for over 6 years now, I have worked very hard to maintain a balanced life and yet still I experience times where work likes to take over. Over the next little while I will explore 'How to make a life, not just a living'. There is a way, so be encouraged - more balance is possible.

Life can often feel a bit like a roller coaster, once you hop on there's no turning back, you simply have to endure the fear and embrace the excitement. At times you will have little control of the setbacks, yet step back for long enough and you will start to see a picture forming. Where ever you are on the roller coaster, remember the ride comes to an end and before you know it you are choosing to hop on the next ride and will repeat the process all over again.

When you know what you are called to do you are literally going to have to fight for that dream. Walt Disney went bankrupt 7 times and pitched his dream to over 300 banks. What if he gave up?? Consider what we wouldn't have today. How many times would you keep going back to the bank? Where are you at - are you ready to give up - Don't - keep persevering, you just don't know how close you are.

Are you ready to give up and stop pushing through?? Don't!!! Thomas Eddison says most of lifes failures are those who didn't realise how close they were to success before they gave up. Don't add to the statistics.

"How can a person, starting from scratch, who has no particular advantage in the world, reach the goals that he feels are important to him, and by so doing, make a major contribution to others?" Be curious to learn everything you can and make what you learn something you intentionally share with others.
