Striving Towards Excellence

–Karthik Gurumurthy

You know what’s wild? Success is not measured by what you do compared to what others do. Success is measured by what you do compared to what you could have done with the ability God has given you. The whole objective of this blog is to recognize, develop and use your abilities to the maximum. It’s really about making the most of what you’ve got!

Think about it like this: You could be making bank at your job, but if you’re miserable doing it, can you really call that success? Maybe for you, success means loving what you do AND making decent money AND helping others. It’s like making your own success recipe!

The trick is figuring out what success looks like for YOU before you start chasing it. It’s like planning a road trip – you’ve gotta know where you want to end up before you start driving, right? When you do this, something awesome happens – your brain starts getting excited about reaching that goal, which actually helps you keep going when things get tough.

Here’s what’s really important: YOU get to decide what success means in your life. Want to measure it in dollars? Go for it. Want to measure it in smiles? That works too! The key is deciding what “winning” looks like for you BEFORE you start playing the game. That way, when you hit those goals, you’ll actually know you’ve made it!

Bottom line? Success isn’t about keeping up with the Joneses – it’s about making the most of what you’ve got and defining the win on your own terms.
