For so long, my perception of success was clouded by colonization & capitalism. Now that I'm decolonizing, I'm seeing success differently. It's not the Louis handbags or McMansions for me. It's not a Tesla, six-figure salary, displacing indigenous people in HI, or frequent trips.

Success to me is having enough in the bank to be comfortable, then donating the rest of my income to community-building projects, funding Chamorro Graduate students, offering microloans at low interest to young indigenous people for their sustainable business ideas.

Success is all of this and more to me. It's being content with island life, yet searching for improvement when I see it's needed. Its being happy with where I am at & what I'm doing, looking back on what I have done, & ancestors before me. It's reconnecting & forging connections.
