Success is a Series of Milestones


Motivational Power Quote

Success is a Series of Milestones
“I look at a victory as milestones on a very long highway.”
Joan Benoit Samuelson, Olympic Gold Medal Winner, retired American Marathon Runner

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Success is a series of milestones

See your victories as milestones on your success journey and not as an isolated event. It’s the combination of you victories that lead to success.

Each victory moves your closer to your goals, but one victory will not create success it creates a milestone on your success journey. Many people savory their victory and believe that they have arrived. At that moment in time they become very susceptible to failure because they translated a victory not as a mile stone but as reaching the top of the mountain.

Your success journey is a long road and your victories have an accumulated value in your overall success.

Look at your setbacks and failures on your success journey as temporary conditions and as a learning experience. Learn from them and make the necessary adjustments to move forward better prepared for the future.    

Success is achieved by those who are persistent and see things through a success conclusion. See success as a series of milestones with each one your victories contributing to your long term success.
