What defines the success of one’s life? It’s varied greatly among us. Some may think it’s the material achievements such as buy a house, a building, a jet, or even an island. Some of us will consider a celebrity with all the fames as successful since they are the ones have biggest influence on the society and earn money just by “showing up.” However, it is necessary to be able to have a vision of yourself. It is just like compare with shooting an arrow with a aim to the target or just shooting freely all around. Surely, the goal will be obtained if you actually aim toward it. And of course, whatever you are trying to do must be inspiring so that you can actually have the motivation to do so. The video did not say anything that is new, but it tells in a more convincing way by showing the actual cases. My vision for myself may not as aggressive as I mentioned above. In my religion, the whole religious belief is the way of life. I do not believe an island will bring me happiness, because we will die soon enough to not even enough to find out what are on it. I do not believe in gaining fames by showing off, because whatever you do has an impact while it could be extremely stressful if you made a really bad ones and even more worse, in front of cameras that broadcast your face and speeches all around the world. At this moment, all I want is having a business of my own and living a peaceful life with my happy family (in the future) while contributes to my religion as much as possible. Everything in this world is dying and approaching to an end. It’s not important whether I built a kingdom for me or earn a living, but how my actions are—it’s good or bad. In my belief, this life is nothing but a trial and a pathway toward hereafter. After your death, the only “things” will come with you are not money, women, fame, or land but only the deeds you have done in this world. Wealth in my religion is not empathizing for one to be successful, since it’s not the material success but spiritual. Surely, one must be able to feed oneself, therefore, strive for success in one’s career is an even better way to approach the goal. I will work in my field as accountant as everyone else, however, the money I worked for will not be wasted on alcohol, cigarettes, and such, but on living a happy life while building up a successful next generation, if god wills. I will vision myself as an successful business man with a big family which will has the true faith that encourage them to obtain piety and be success in this life and hereafter.
