success is one owns perspective of someone else or there self. depending on how far they have came from the position they were in depends on if they are successful.That's a very individual thing. Some people think it's money, possessions, power. Others will say it's friends, family, love. Others will say it has to do with the difference you make in other people's lives.

Life is simple and being able to make other people happy could make you happy as well. We all search for happiness through success. And it's important what is successful mean to us, so we know that were already successful in a way that other may think is not.
Anyway thank you for sharing with us and have a great day!

I think a person's success just depends on how happy they are. Money isn't really important in being successful. If you can find something that you love to do and you can make a living doing it, then you are what I would consider successful.
There are some successful who don't even work outside of the home. They may barter and trade, or just sell something on the internet. If they are happy, that is all that matters.
I am also going to add a quotation to this discussion, if you don't mind.
"What most people need to learn in life is how to love people and us things instead of using people and loving things." - Unknown
That is one of my favorite quotes, I hope it is helpful. Have a great day!

Yeah, people should consider happiness as success not by on having possessions, wealth or on fame. But lot of people thought that they can be happy if they have lots of money and can do whatever they want, that's why they work hard. Well anyway, thank you for sharing that very beautiful and inspiring quotes. That make me think and yeah it was right. I just hope other people would applied that thoughts on their life. That could be of a very great help.
Anyway thank you for sharing with us and have a great day!

Well success is not measured 100% or numbers, its all in the satisfaction of your effort and giving a good fight.

From your own point of view, success can only be measured by how you feel about success and what your criteria is for success. Personally, for me, I would feel I am successful if I have reached most of the goals I had set for myself. If I am relatively happy, have the means to feed myself and my family, have good health, I would consider that I am successful. This is a very relative question. Everyone would have their own unique requirements to feel successful.
