What is success? Well, according to Merriam-Webster, it’s “the fact of getting or achieving wealth, respect, or fame.”
Julianne Hough, a famous dancer, singer, actress, and now a judge on Dancing with the Stars, certainly fits that definition. Yet, it took her a long time to personally feel successful.
"I pushed myself to every single limit, trying to reach that idea of success," she says. "I feel like I actually really did achieve a lot of what I had set out to achieve. But, no matter how successful I was on paper, I never really felt like I was successful. I never felt content. I was always looking to get to the next level."
Looking at Hough’s career, many might wonder how this is possible. How could a woman with such fame and a flourishing career not feel successful?!
But, it took a moment of awakening for her to really feel accomplished. That was when she became happier than she'd ever been before.
As part of the Strayer University Readdress Success program petitioning to redefine success, Hough explains her story in the inspirational video below. And, trust me, her words might make you look at life a little bit differently…
