I think it's always a really stupid thing to base your achievement on someone else. I just want to base it on myself... do something that I can be proud of, and then I'll be happy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
In terms of achievement, the pride is very important to me. It keeps me going every day. The money is always second to me.
If you don't measure yourself by achievement, how are you going to set achievement levels for other people?
I need to learn to be happy and enjoy the achievement rather than already thinking about what I could have done better.
The only achievement I am really proud of is the friends I have made in this community.
I could just sit back and get someone to spin my achievements, I suppose, but when I see others do it, I always think, 'Why are you telling me how successful you are?' I am always suspicious of those kinds of boasts.
Build your self-esteem by recalling all the ways you have succeeded, and your brain will be filled with images of you making your achievements happen again and again. Give yourself permission to toot your own horn, and don't wait for anyone to praise you.
If you are not happy with yourself, even the loftiest achievements won't bring you much satisfaction.
My real achievement is my daughter and my three beautiful grandchildren.
Other people's success spurs me on to do well and gives me motivation.
All I've ever ended up with in terms of achievements is the movie, some really stupid anecdotes, a bunch of crosswords that I didn't finish and maybe some old bicycle that I found lying around on set.
