What Is Success? Let’s Bust Some Myths

What Is Success? Let’s Bust Some Myths

When you’ve been around long enough, you realize—success is hard to define. Why do they keep moving the goalposts? It feels like there’s always one more thing to attain. One more promotion, one more physical standard to live up to. You never actually arrive at what the world’s definition of success is.

 That’s because the world’s idea of success is out of whack. Let’s use some real talk to define what success actually looks like for a full-grown man.

 🚫 Myth: Success is about luck and timing.

Fact: Success is built through preparation and persistence.

It’s easy to see “successful” people on TV and think, “They lucked into success with timing, genetics, or natural talent.” Those gifts are real, but here’s the thing: Over time, at any time, those things can change. 

Here’s what can’t be taken from you: the power of effort. Success that lasts is built day by day, rep by rep. Luck and timing might open doors, but if you haven’t put in the work, you won’t be ready to step through them. When you put in the work, you’re set up for success, no matter what life throws at you. 

 🚫 Myth: Success is about proving yourself to others.

Fact: Success is mastering your own potential.

 Some days, even as a grown man, it feels like high school never ended. Everyone’s still sizing each other up, chasing approval, and measuring themselves against someone else’s scoreboard. (It’s born of insecurity, by the way.)

 But real success is a personal battle. It’s about understanding your strengths, pushing your limits, and setting goals that matter to you. It isn’t about living up to someone else’s expectations.

 🚫 Myth: Success is having the same reckless energy you did in your 20s.

Fact: Success is about sustainable performance.

 When you were young, you had all this energy and no idea how to channel it. You were like a flash flood: haphazard, fleeting, and occasionally destructive.

 Now that you’re older, you’re like a powerful river. You carve your path steadily, strongly, inevitably. You don’t waste energy in chaos. You channel your strength with purpose. You know that endurance is more dangerous than force, which is why you do what it takes to show up strong—physically, mentally and emotionally—day after day.
