A Path to Understanding Holistic Success
My experience as a young adult was both beautiful and challenging. On the one hand, I was fervently engaged in self-reflection and self-exploration, determined to find the secret to intrapersonal healing and inner peace. Essentially, I was consumed with and committed to discovering and developing the inner
person. I attended numerous seminars and lectures, reading countless books on self-help, self-improvement, cultural identity and spirituality. Like most young adults, I was deeply concerned about the direction my life would take. It was very clear to me that I did not want to choose a career just because it guaranteed a high-level income. My deepest aspirations were for a more holistic success, that is, fulfilment as a whole human being – achieving balance in mind, body and spirit!

So, for years, I tried again and again to find my path to success. But, my heart kept reminding me: holistic success is not just about the end game; holistic success does not turn a blind eye to the path that one takes to achieve the desired goal; that the means is just as important as the end!
There was a time when I wanted to be a musician; then a college professor; then a social worker; then an author. In other words, I had no problem with identifying goals. What always seemed to evade me was a sense of my path; the course of action that I needed to follow to reach a particular goal. I just didn’t know how to keep moving toward the goal while simultaneously pursuing, developing, and discovering my true, highest Self.

These variables are distinct and relative to the life history of the individual and the particular goal that they are pursuing.
Some argue that the primary determining factor to achieving success is hard work and fierce determination.
Others argue that it is faith – that is, having a strong belief system.
While hard work, fierce determination and faith can be
