Sheep waiting for a train. Look familiar? |
I ran across the phrase "lifestyle success" somewhere recently. Can't remember where. Twitter? I googled it of course. (Is that a recognized verb yet? You know it will be if it's not already.)
Lots of different things popped up in the search results but no one theme. There's not a movement towards "lifestyle success" like there is towards "voluntary simplicity" for example.
What I found - or to be more accurate, didn't find - gave me pause. Why not? Why aren't there lots of places on the web discussing lifestyle success? Isn't that part of your decision-making?
Seems to me that in this American culture, we've all spent way too much time letting other people and other places decide for us what lifestyle success means. It's got us in lots of trouble.
What is lifestyle success?
What does it mean to you? Who are your role models for successful living? (Is it really and truly the Kardashians?)
