The One Scale That Matters

“Men require a revolution in identity in which we measure success by our capacity for compassion…and virility, by the capacity to nurture, husband, and mentor.” –Sam Keene

Success has many measurements, all dependent on one’s perspective, or an observer’s (like a boss) perspective. Life-success is measured by God Himself, and I believe His scale is based on how well we love Him and others on this planet. By “enlarging our hearts” and not necessarily our wallets or productivity, we have the greatest eternal impact. We then view others as gifts in our lives, not people to use/abuse or merely interact with.  It’s our job to pour value into our family and friends and the next generation, for then our efforts are truly multiplied.
