10 Signs You Are Succeeding In Life (Even If You Don’t Feel You Are)

Most of us are so busy trying to dodge life bullets, we forget to stop and appreciate the little victories. Consider for a moment that you’re doing a tremendous job at life. Living isn’t an easy thing to do, but it can be enjoyable when we start to see the good instead of focusing on the bad.

You are actually living a successful  life by recognizing these 25 signs…..

1. You have started surrounding yourself with the right people

To be successful, you must surround yourself with the right people. A good life is all about finding the right people. They spread positivity in your life and uplift you completely.

2. You have things to look forward to

You have this strong internal desire and determination to excel in all avenues that you pursue. If you don’t have exciting things going on in your life that you are eagerly anticipating, then you are slowly dying inside. Successful people create goals that they are passionate about pursuing. They let this excitement drive their life.

3. You never let yourself be the victim

You realize that life is a consequence of how you want it to be. You always work towards ensuring a better life instead of complaining. You know that life doesn’t always happen to you. Many times, you are a co-creator of your life experiences. Successful people know this and refuse to be kept down by life experiences. The rise up and conquer anyway.

4. You are positive about the future

You love spreading positive energy and love in this world and being more open to listening to other people. You leave the negativity behind. Negativity just drags people down, and what your focus in life has been is to uplift yourself and your soul.

5. You are happy and always strive to be happy

To me, this is the ultimate definition of success. It doesn’t matter what the balance is in your bank account, how big your house is,  or how many fancy vacations you take. If you are happy, then you are succeeding in life. You are always full of optimism and know that things will go right no matter what.

6. You can celebrate others’ successes

Just because other people succeed, that doesn’t make you a failure. Applaud the people who rise to the top. The more positive energy you give to other people’s victories, the more you will create your own.

7. You love yourself instead of the idea of everyone else loving you

The first step to truly being content with yourself is loving yourself for who you really are. Ideally, you should appreciate who you see in the mirror at every moment. But even if that doesn’t happen, if you do it more than you used to, then that is success. Love yourself. You are awesome.

8. You don’t complain all that often anymore

Because you know there really is nothing to complain about. Unless you really have gone through some horrific life experience and had unimaginable losses, most of what we all experience on a day-to-day basis is just mundane. And successful people know that. And they live in a space of gratitude.

9. You understand the importance of failure and setbacks

Not everyone can have success 100% of the time. That’s just not realistic. Life is about victories and losses. So look at your setbacks as stepping stones to something better. In reality, there really is no such thing as as setback. It’s all just part of a wondrous journey.

10. Your standards have raised

You don’t tolerate bad behavior any more – from other people, or even yourself. You hold people accountable for their actions. You don’t spend time with the “energy vampires” in your life anymore.
