One way I think of it is: at any given moment, I'm either a success or not. Am I at the gym, working out? Then I'm a successful gymgoer (because I'm doing what a successful gymgoer would be doing)

Whether I have a six pack or not, I need to be at the gym 3 times a week. So then the measure of success is no longer the six pack, it's the actual way I'm spending my time. If I'm doing my best, I'm just as successful in that moment as Arnold is when he's at the gym. (or insert whatever bodybuilder is your hero) same goes for every area of your life.

Plenty of millionaires have days where they wake up at 8 am, eat breakfast, chill out on YouTube, run to work late, get bored in meetings, scroll reddit, head home, and play video games... Are they successful? They for sure won't be if EVERY day is like that.

The success doesn't come from the million dollars. It comes from how you spend the majority of your time.
