Success could mean different things to different people. In a recent re-evaluation of my personal goals and life desires, I have decided to make a career change in order to spend more time with my family instead of my business. My definition of success has completely changed.
I am curious what everyone else measures their Success by? Is it money? Status? Health? Family? Friends? Big House?
Success to me is not money, Status, Health, Family, Friends, or a Big House. Most of these are just needs, wants, and position. Success is accomplishing a task or goal that is of great achievement. Not only in the eyes of others, but also yourself. Such as being a good father or mother…having a stable family…putting up a new fence…having a steady job…keeping organized…fixing a car…putting up a shelf…….anything that accomplishes something. Success is simply trying and succeeding. So if you’re not a quitter, try your best, and are accomplish goals, you are successful.

Does anyone have any ideas for gifts for kids that include some personal development material?Books,games,etc?
Every year we like to give our boys (who are 12 and 15)something for Christmas that’s educational and promoting Personal Development along with the toys and other stuff so they can learn and grow. Does anyone have some good ideas?
I don’t intend for the fallowing to sound like the focus is on money. Jim Rohn is a powerful author and has many ideas that pertain to life outside of money. Money should come after success and personal development anyway.
Jim Rohn covers the three places to begin for any teenager (or adult) in their quest for a future full of Success, happiness and wealth.
1. Price and promise – the power of vision and setting goals.
2. Personal development – expanding your knowledge through books, tapes, seminars and other successful people.
3. The principles of wealth – earning, saving, giving and investing.
Over the years, Jim Rohn has heard from thousands of people – many who saw or heard Jim early in their life who later went on to achieve success. Don’t let yourself or your family miss out on this powerful 56 minute video that can inspire, teach and lead you to success.

If you were in the marketing for a personal development coach, who would you use?
Personal Development Coaches are about as reliable as fortune tellers. Big BS job. Don’t use any.
I like reading these books but they almost always leave me disappointed. I’d rather read one of these though than go to a psychiatrist. Any suggestions? I don’t care what topic, just Self Help Books. I’ve got all kinds of problems. I don’t want any religious self help books unless they are about how to free yourself from religious shackles or how to reverse the brain damage caused by Catholicism.
you know i just go to amazon.com and browse the section i’m interested in then read reviews from the consumers who read them. plus you can buy used books there for a bargain 
. it totally depends on the subject. oprah also seems to recommend some good books. there are just soooo many Self Help books on the self you can get overwhelmed.
