I want to believe that I'm successful. I got cars a house plus kids. But it seems like every time that I turn around I have to save for something else. The kids need this or that or the bills come and worst of all the car needs fixed. I make good money but it's very hard to keep it. So what d you see as being successful, family or in the public eye?

I think it is based on how you feel. To me being successful is not just money but being a good person and doing the right thing when it comes your way. I am pretty young still and I know having money is a great thing but money cannot buy EVERYTHING I hope I answered your question and happy mylotting to you as well.

Family. Do not care about public opinion. The public does not know your success one by one. The public does not know your true success.
I have a family, home and car. The children into good schools.
So far we are quite happy. There are problems in the family is normal.
Another success is reasonable, before we die.

I agree. Public can't help you when you are in trouble, only family can. Focus on one thing and you'll get the best result, do you remember that?

Ok I think being successful is like having beauty if you feel successful then you are. As for me I use to be what I thought was successful and then everything changed. In a blink of an I was in danger of loosing my house, my car, the things that made me happy like fabulouse weekends. what changed? I got a promotion and then two days after the promotion my office location was closed down. I started temping for this car dealer. I love my paycheck it helps me pay some of my bills. Bottom line for me is the thing i had worked hard to get I wanted them because they were what was a mental idea of being successful and then when i thought I would loose them and even now with me having to fight to keep them I still feel that i have not reached a point of success. See successful to me is having my degree, owning a business of my own and giving my son what all i did not have. So Now that I thought I reach success then almost lost the things that made me successful I am now working on reaching my own level success.
if you are happy with were you are then great. if you feel the you need just a little more money to feel at peace then peace is what you should be after. With peace in your life you know that you are successful and you never think about because success is you day to day life.
