Contributed by: Andrew N.

All of us struggle to succeed. But to succeed in life is not only hard to achieve, it’s hard to even notice. You could be, right now, succeeding in life as you’re reading this. It’ll come to you naturally; sometimes you won’t even realize it. I am here to make it easier for you to maybe notice that you’ve actually succeeded in life. Here is a list of guidelines, or however you may call it, in knowing you’ve succeeded in life.

* You don’t have any more drama going on in your life. You’ve either moved on, or they have been resolved. Or you just avoid drama because you know you don’t need it in your life.

* You have accepted that failure is always an option. You’ve failed so many times to then realize failure helps you pick yourself back up and become a better person.

* You don’t complain about life anymore. You enjoy what you have and you have no complaints about your life.

* You are passionate about what you do. You enjoy whatever you are doing in life, whether it’s working in a regular office or being the CEO of the hugest company in the world.

* The goals you’ve set have become reality. Those goals you set out after graduation have come true, after all the hard work you’ve put into doing so.

* You know when to let go. Simple, you know when things aren’t worth sticking around to.

* You appreciate yourself. You’ve learned to love yourself more than you’ve ever had.

* You are open to everyone you love. Whatever feelings you had, have been put out.

* You’ve set your own standards. You’ve measured out what’s best for you and what isn’t.

* And lastly, to simply put it, you are happy.

I know for a fact that I haven’t reached the pinnacle of life, evaluating myself through these tips I have suggested. If you’re reading this, then you too are wondering if you’ve succeeded in life. I hope this has inspired you to look forward to succeeding in life. Good luck and have success in life.
