how can we define a successful life? whom do we called the successful person in the world? the person who seems to be happy from outside may be in internal stresses and tensions, is money everything for the successful life? don't we need love and good relationships in our life? is our life is just for earning money and expending for our needs only? don't we have to be successful in helping others, helping nation and the world? what is a successful life?

It really depends on how you see it, for me, the basic is that I can make people around me happy and to keep my family and myself happy.

It's hard to say what is the real successful life .Successful life vary from people to people,for poor people successful life maybe is getting countless money,for rich people ,successful life maybe is having a happy family...

we all have different views of things. success comes in many forms and in many ways. you can be "successful" in your family life but not in some other stuffs. well, at least that is how i think it really is. :)

I think Successful life is balanecing below key points, 1. Work 2. Personal life 3. Health Work is all about making money to live with your family up to the expectation? We need to be happy with what we earn? Personal life is about caring and full filling your and family requirment and living a loving life with your partner & children Health to be fit as a person to do your day to da work compared to your age....

i don't think the person who seems to be happy from outside but be in internal stresses and tensions. sometimes people need to pursue the money to show their success because at the present time money is somehow equal to success. but people who only have money but no love and great relationships in their life are not successful. what is life? life is to be happy when you alive. a successful life means getting what you want while happy. some people enjoy helping others, nations and the world which they think is successful. success has different meanings in different people but happiness is what most people want.

For me a successful life is having a peace of mind. Peace of mind in the sense that you are contended in what you have, you have good relationship woth other people and you are able to do your duties as an individual. Money is not a gauge for a successful life, people may have millions but they don't have a good family life.

i can say that i have a successful life when i am satisfied with it. having a simple but happy and fulfilling life. eventhough i am not rich...even if i have no wheels as long as i am happy and contented.

To me successful life has to do with the following: 1. fulfilling your duties as man or woman to the church of God, I mean being fully involved in the things of God our creator (spiritual) 2. fulfilling your duties as a man or woman to your family, i mean being committed and dedicated to you family duties as to provision of things needed in the home, parental guidance to children, upkeep of the family and all family engagements. 3. fulfilling your duties to your society, i mean, contributing to the development of the area where you live. the man or woman who wants to be successful must leave a legacy for the community or society where you find yourself and also helps in the development of such place.

Well success for me is not only in making your carrier fulfilled, it's not only by winning your goal and have every material things in life success for me is when you make your family complete and happy I always adored a parent who make their family complete, doing their responsibilities as parent/guardian to their children making them their friend. Helping them/ molding their children to be in their best someday. Success is so broad but you cannot be called successful if you did not fulfill your duties and responsibilities as parent/husband/wife/children to all you love. You are successful in your carrier/ambition but not happy with your life money cannot buy everything specially happiness.

A sucessful life must be a healthy life.. If you know you are happy inside and out that is success.

To me it is some one who keeps closed connection with God and humble himself/herself helping other people. some one who will not drive passed a man begging or refused to help an elderly person just because they feel they don't have time. every other thing does not count the only good relationship is the one you have with God

A successful life is going to be different for everyone depending upon their viewpoint. For me, I love to create, art, poetry, business. I feel successful when I am doing it and when I complete something. It fulfills me and that is what I define as success, not money, not even love or helping someone else. Those things all have great purpose, but are determined by others as to the success of it. I think a successful life is when you are fulfilled, whatever that fulfillment is for the individual. So, each of us has to figure that out for ourselves, for me it is the doing, the journey, the accomplishing what I want to achieve. Then if I label it successful, it is for me.
