Success Means...

At a recent Sterling Bank Women’s Business Initiative Luncheon, participants were asked what success means to them.  Though we are all unique, there was a lot of commonality in the 51 responses. Over three-fourths (78.4%) of the answers fell into the following four categories:
  • Helping Others –  35.3%
  • Achieving goals, dreams, potential – 19.6%
  • Happiness – 13.7%
  • Pursuing Passion – 9.8%
Other descriptions included:
  • Money
  • Peace – Inner or God’s
  • Strategic pursuit of knowledge
  • Abundance
  • Honesty
  • Relationships
  • Independence
  • Self-sufficiency
  • Prepared
  • Brave enough to risk failing
  • Meeting the President, Governor, Pope and Queen
What does success mean to you?
