Here is an excerpt from my chapter
Soul Success: A Higher Level of Fulfillment

You are the author of your own success story.---Michelle L. Casto

What is Soul Success?
Earl Nightingale once said, “Success in life could be defined as the continuous expansion of happiness and the progressive realization of worthy goals.” I personally like this idea because he emphasizes two key things: more happiness and the lifelong pursuit of “worthy goals.” It also reminds me that success is a lifelong journey and definitely not a destination. Reading and writing are essential to my personal success strategy that I employ every day; I discover everything I need to know by taking time to actively reflect.
The definition of life success varies from person to person, according to what goals they set for themselves. For some, having a career in a particular field, making a certain amount of money defines success. For others, having a career that enables them to make a real difference in people’s lives is what makes them feel successful. For others, it is a happy family life. For me, it has a lot to do with taking a balanced and strategic approach to achieving all that I can in all areas of my life, while enjoying the process as much as humanly possible!
In my book, worldly success does not equal fulfillment. Ego success is often measured by the thing quotient: having so much money, the right kind of car, a big house, and certain degrees. This kind of success is external and fleeting. Once you possess what you desire, you begin desiring something new, always feeling empty inside. Soul success is measured by the happiness quotient: enjoying high self-esteem, confidence, satisfaction, and a sense of purpose. This kind of success is internal and lasting. Once you learn what your inner self really wants, and create a lifestyle that reflects that, peace and joy live in your heart, abiding and enduring (even when physical things seem to be lacking).

You need to develop your own definition of success so that you will attract it into your life. You will experience what you expect. So expect success!

The “Law of Attraction” means that the universe attracts similar vibrations and frequencies to us through our thoughts and feelings, which are based on love or fear. When we send out positive vibrations, we magnetize more good things back to us. When we let fear, doubt, or guilt cloud our mental frame of mind—we are sending out a lower frequency, and attracting likewise. Success is not only based on what you do, but who you are. Success is attracted to successful people.

So how do you become a success magnet?
