Here's this week's SMDP Mentor Moment
Success won’t make you happy

Of course, we’ve all heard people say this before. Usually after they’ve already made it. They’ve achieved success, lived the dream and now, from their comfortable position, they want to tell the rest of us that it’s not the answer. Easy for them to say. It’s hard not to wonder if they’re just trying to sound profound, as if they’ve reached some higher level of wisdom the rest of us haven’t unlocked. But are they really? Or have they just forgotten what it was like to be on the other side, striving, hoping, convinced that success would change everything?
