Success is a state of mind

Saw this on the web as I was browsing through and thought it wasn’t that hard to be successful was it?

I do agree with the author that “When you understand success as a state of mind, not just an outcome, any moment can be a victory.
But it is not as easy as it may seem to be because I can’t give a firm ‘yes’ to any item from the author’s list below:

1. Staying focused (I just can’t… I’m easily distracted)
   
   Being optimistic, no matter what (Will try harder)
   
2. Raising confident kids (Will try to have a family planning first)
   
3. Earning more than you ever dreamed (ya right!)
   
4. Hanging in, regardless (I wanted to, but…)
   
5. Passing on what you know (I wish I know more things to pass on)
   
6. Running for office (Huh? You kidding?)
   
7. Finding work you love (Be realistic la, Im not an artist...)
   
8. Telling the truth, always (This I do)
   
9. Paying off debts (In the process)
   
10. Finding the good in being fired (Will try when it happens)
    
11. Winning a tough case (never encounter yet)
    
12. Celebrating a milestone birthday (That’s my 100 yrs old grandma)
    
13. Exceeding your parents' expectations (I don’t even dare to ask what is their expectation on me)
    
14. Building a house with a Habitat for Humanity team (Is there a manual for this?)
    
15. Bouncing back after a failure (Still learning how to)
    
16. Delivering a healthy baby (Can’t say yet)
    
17. Mastering the impossible eg. Mt. Everest (Just kill me)
    
18. Losing the last ten pounds (After maternity…)
    
19. Meditating every morning (I’m not going to the war am I?)
    
20. Accepting your looks hair and all (Accept that I’m ugly but adorable)
    
21. Learning to forgive your worst enemy (I will read more of the Bible for a start)

Conclusion is: I am such a loser!
