Money is an enabler that allows that to happen. On the other hand, success with money--specifically--<em>can</em> be defined, and once we reach that, we know that we're allowing our other life goals to thrive to their fullest. At least that's how I look at it... Exactly–most people don’t define success in terms of money, because we understand that family and relationships are the most important things in our life.

I especially like how you emphasize figuring out where you want to end up in constructing a personal mission statement. Part of determining what your life goals are is defining what wealth and success mean to you. This is going to be different for different people (and it may be in financial terms or in non-financial terms), but it's important to define what it is for you so you know what you're striving for. .-= Finavigation´s last post: <a href="http://finavigation.com/making-good-financial-decisions" rel="nofollow">Making Good Financial Decisions</a> =-.

The best books I read are those that I can read again and again when I need the extra kick to get something going. In the same way, I want a mission that gets me going every morning. If I don't believe in it, it's not going to do anything for me. P.S. Love your latest post title. Thanks so much, Jackie.
