Well, this is kind of a wrap-up–I’ve finished the themed portion of another issue. I’ll come back to the rest of it at another point during this project.
What have I learned about success? Well, it’s good to want success–but not to think about it like that. It’s more of a “be the best you can [...]

Oprah Knows Success
Posted in Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, What Oprah Knows For Sure, tagged life, o magazine, oprah, personal, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, What Oprah Knows For Sure on May 22, 2008 | No Comments »
One of the questions I had about reading every issue of O was that would things start repeating. You see it in other magazines–every year there seem to be stories on the same topics. I wondered if this magazine would do the same thing (especially if themes are repeated).
The answer is yes, and I’ve found [...]
Is It Ambition or Goal-Oriented?
Posted in Ambition, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, tagged Ambition, career, life, o magazine, personal, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, work on May 21, 2008 | 2 Comments »
The success issue has an article on ambition that consists of many different successful women talking about the topic. Some describe it as good for women to have, as long as you don’t get too greedy (Leona Helmsley comes up a couple of times. Others say ambition is the scarlet letter A: [...]
Stamina, Success, and Failure
Posted in Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, tagged career, failure, life, o magazine, personal, stamina, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9 on May 21, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I’m getting to the point where I feel like I’ve got to move on already and finish up this issue, so let me combine a few articles.
First off, there’s an article on stamina. If you’re a great woman, you’ve had to have stamina to get there. Oprah tells us she’s full of this [...]
Success in Your Career

In the success issue there’s an article I was kind of reluctant to write about because I don’t know how much I can get from it. It’s about work consultant Ronna Lichtenberg and her seminars called “Investing in Me, Inc.“ In the article, she takes a group of women through her seminar. Their experiences and [...]
Thinking About Success
Posted in Something to Think About, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, tagged o magazine, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, Success on May 16, 2008 | No Comments »
I’m not really keyed up with the four “Something to Think About” questions this month–I tend to whine a bit about the questions, but I think I’m getting a handle on defining success for me (being OK with my definition is taking a little bit of work, as is fulfilling my ambition, but that will [...]
Dr. Phil Helps You Succeed
Posted in Dr. Phil, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, tagged balance, career, life, o magazine, personal, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9 on May 15, 2008 | No Comments »
The three questions to Dr. Phil in the Success issue (Sept. 2001) are nice and general, so they can be applicable to almost anyone, but they all fall under the realm of you having to define “success” for yourself. I do hope there are other articles that talk about helping you define success because I’m [...]
Success in a Paragraph-by Ralph Fiennes
Posted in Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, tagged life, o magazine, personal, ralph fiennes, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9 on May 14, 2008 | 1 Comment »
When you look at the table of contents in the Success issues (vol. 2 iss. 9), you see that Ralph Fiennes has contributed an article. You might think, “That’s cool!” Until you read it and see that it’s only a paragraph (which makes me ask if he got paid for this, or if it was [...]
A Successful Month
Posted in Calendar, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9, tagged Calendar, life, o magazine, personal, Success, Vol. 2 Iss. 9 on May 14, 2008 | No Comments »
The calendar in the “Success” issue (Sept. 2001) is gung-ho on getting you to understand that successful achievements aren’t just big, glamorous awards. They’re also the little things, like having a healthy baby, accepting the way you look, not letting failure stop you, getting rid of debt. “When you understand success as a [...]
A Sense of Deja Vu

So I’m reading Oprah’s “Here We Go” column in the “Success” issue (Sept. 2001) and I feel like I’ve read this advice before. Oprah says you have to define what success is for you–you can’t try to fit into someone else’s definition–and that this issue is devoted to helping you figure out what your own [...]
