Success is commonly defined in worldly terms, such as an actor achieving fame or a businessman earning profits. But this kind of success can be shaky and even lost.
One can become famous, for instance, and still worry about what others think of them. One may earn lots of money but still fret that they don’t have enough.
Real success is not a temporal state that can come and go. It sticks. It stays with you forever.
Real success is not about money and fame, or a fleeting fancy within. It’s spiritual mindedness.
Success is feeling rich whether one has money or not.
Success is feeling loved whether other people around are showing it or not.
Success is feeling whole and complete even when the outward picture argues the opposite.
Success is the ability to forgive and never hold a grudge.
Success is being patient.
Success is the ability to always find something good to be grateful for.
Success is a good attitude when surrounded by a lot of bad attitude.
Success is knowing God’s presence and really feeling it to the depth of your being.
Success is giving without expecting anything in return.
Success is living an honest life.
Success is sincerity.
Success is helping one’s neighbor out of a low place.
Success is living Love.
Success has nothing to do with fame or fortune. Success is all about spiritual mindedness and living true to one’s spiritual individuality.
Success is between you and God. And you can have all of it that you want!
Words can’t describe how beautiful this message is. How ones perspective on life can change with this message is unbelievable. I am so very grateful to my aunt Nergish, for introducing me to Spitview, as it’s truly a blessing. No where else can we learn the true value of Life and Love.
I agree with Farzeen! This is one mighty message! With overflowing gratitude for Spiritview! Wow!
Evan the entire post is lovely and so so comforting. The most beautiful lines on success which will always stay with me….for which I am truly grateful to you.

Success is between you and God.”
The most beautiful quote is: “Success is between you and God”. That would mean, we offer all our good deeds to God as a devotion to Him. No expectations from those for whom we do the good, but do for the love of God..that’s true success….Its only between us and God…This success satisfies and stays with us forever. Its a treasure which we can take along with us when we leave this world.
Deeply grateful for all your lovely posts, daily enriching our soul. Evan you are a blessing and may you always be blessed abundantly.
The true meaning of success….how beautifully you have explained it. The ways of the world pale before having a relationship with God, turning to Him as Abba, Father, like Jesus did, for everything we need. Sweet wonderful post, Evan, thank you.
I am so grateful. Thank you for this beautiful post Evan. Blessings to all on your successful day.
thank you Evan
This says it All! Wonderful! Thanks, Evan! If each of us in the entire world tallied up success in this way, what a Beautiful world it would be. Power, competition, selfishness would have no place where it tends to make one person or group or country better or mightier than another. Accolades would not be measured in the materialistic way they are and we would all be equal in the success of God’s purpose, where in Truth, we have it all.
Thank you Carol, and I agree fully with your true comment 🙂
You’re a real deep theirnk. Thanks for sharing.
SpiritView and all the comments…all just so beautiful. Thank you all.
Expect success
I really like these reminders of what “success” is really all about. Thanks for sharing.
Father…
Every drop of realization
From you is more precious
More valuable than any
Priceless jewel or
Earthly riches
That I may see myself
As you see me
Is an inheritance
Of infinite value
Yes, thank you, Evan….so good, too, to know that success is not dependent on a material process.
Thanks, Evan, for your thoughtful and inspiring ideas which remind me of how successful and full of gratitude I am right now!
Thanks so much.
Wonderful!!! I agree with Nergish: “Deeply grateful for all your lovely posts, daily enriching our soul. Evan you are a blessing and may you always be blessed abundantly.” Thank you.
What a richness of our loving GOD can be expressed with this wonderful spiritual attribute “success” – thank you very much Evan! – real success can only come from God and from nothing else, only so one can understand your todays precious SpiritView :-))
So beautiful Evan, thank you! And yes Nergish, it’s only between us and God…
