Our Definition of Success is Wrong

Our definition of success is all wrong. It sends us into a rat race to become rats. It puts us onto treadmills like hamsters. Running and running and running but getting nowhere. And as we run, we suffer. We suffer because we never feel that we are successful enough. We are constantly comparing ourselves to others who have more or have climbed higher. And then we bring suffering unto others as we ignore and forsake all that which brings us true joy and meaning in life in order to achieve the culture's definition of "success."
We need to shift our definition of success away from only climbing a corporate or social ladder, away from simply accumulation of wealth or prestige or possessions or titles and degrees, away from being measured by the size of our homes or cars, and into a definition that is actually meaningful as far as what we REALLY want from life, and what we are here for!
In this beautiful and compelling teaching Sadhviji invites us to redefine success. She inspires us to ask ourselves not how much money we made or how high on the ladder we climbed, but rather how much love did you share today? How much light? How much healing? How effective of an instrument of peace, love, mercy, compassion and goodness were you today? Did you feel the Divine flowing through you? How connected were you to the core, the truth of your very being and the beings of those around you? Let these become the new questions we ask when judging our own and others’ success. Otherwise, we just become yet another rat - winning the race or losing the race - but a rat nonetheless...
