Many people think that success is happiness. But I think that this is a wrong perception. Happiness is contentment but rather success is somewhat opposite of that. In my opinion Success is making the most of your human life. People relate success and happiness to a great extent, and they are, but they relate in wrong way. Achieving what you wanted but not attaining peace of mind is not success. And if you are just in peace with yourself is also not success. Happiness or peace of mind is the fruit of attitude and perception. But Success is the fruit of everything, Attitude, tolerance, hard work, planning, ethics and much much more. Even a beggar on the street may be fully contented and happy but are we here to just be happy like a beggar? Bill gates or any other great personalities of the world may or may not have a the ultimate peace of mind but in the end they are going to make a big difference in the world. Think about Mahatma Gandhi, How much pain he took for Indian freedom and was in jail for most of his life time. But he was not contented. He did what he had to do. He made a difference. This is success. Do what you really want to do. Not just what you think you can do but What you always wanted to do with your life. Do what you fantasize. And I bet, in the end you would be most satisfied. THIS IS SUCCESS.

Success is different for everyone. For me, success is having enough money to live comfortably and having a good family. The most important thing in the world is family, so I think having a happy family and having good connections with your extended family is important, too.
Nowadays a lot of people put too much importance in the meaning of money and they forget the things that really matter. I've seen parents work way too much to earn money to give their children what they think they should have when all their children really want is to spend a little more time with their parents. I firmly believe there's got to be some sort of in-between and that's where I think success lies. ^_^
