Measuring Success

One of the things that always strikes a cord with me is how to measure
success. Some people measure their success by the the 'things' they
acquire such as real estate, jewelry, cars, houses and even people.

Lately, I've been measuring success by the number of people that I
have been able to affect. For example, this past fall I coached a
Girls Under-10 team, which my daughtet plays on as well. I thought it
was going to be tough coaching my own daughter, but it turned out very
well even though our record didn't show it.

The girls encouraged me to give them my best and in turn, they didn't
give up during games and even battled back, in one game from a 2-0
deficit at the half to come back and tie the game. Yes, the game
ended in a tie but it showed me that the girls did listen to me at
half-time when I told them they can still win the game. They played
like true Champions!

Now that the Government is finally using the 'Recession' word, even
though we've been in a recession for almost a year, it's made me focus
on what I'm doing even more and finish projects that I've started.

Other than Worcester Is MAJOR!, I host the Internet's only live, call-
in sneaker talk show OSD- Obsessive Sneaker Disorder that covers the
ever burgeoning world of sneakers and the people that collect them.
You can listen to the show as a podcast at www.ObsessiveSneakerDisorder.com.

My most recent project is Worcester's Finest 016 or WF016 for short.
Worcester's Finest 016 is an Internet video channel dedicated to the
great people in Worcester that make this City a great place to live
and raise a family and will feature various interviews with people
that call Worcester home. More detailed information about the channel
will be posted once the channel goes live.

Worcester's Finest 016 success will not be measured by how many people
are interviewed, but by the quality of the interviews with people that
would otherwise not be heard from.

So, how do you measure success? What measurement tools do you use?
