A high level of consciousness, vibration and honesty, not exactly a big bank account and "great honors" makes a successful life. However. so many of us would like to think that a big bank account would "do it". However, that means nothing. A high level of consciousness, vibration and self-honesty always means more than getting the "greatest of honors" or "just to have a big bank account full of dough (money)" or to put it another way, more gold has been mined from the mind of man than could ever come from a gold mine.

The only way to be honest and true in life is to get it right with a high level of consciousness, vibration and honesty. Anything otherwise is to be a loser. Call what I am writing about winning, or succeeding. You can call it anything you want. But it all starts with the orientation of your heart and mind, not anywhere else, not anything else.

Sometimes, I read the novels of Ayn Rand, especially "The Fountainhead" and "Atlas Shrugged". What is unique to her heroes and villains is that she shows these qualities in very deep and shallow ways that resonate with anyone who can grasp what I am saying and writing about success, failure and getting it right. We especially see these qualities in her heroes Howard Roark and John Galt, and the dishonesty of her villains makes them so smaller than life that even the common person can get them, but, they show the lesson so completely that even the worst of us cannot miss it, but purposely ignore and fear the lesson.
