Do you need to have wealth to become successful in life. Do you need to be rich and famous to say that you achieve a successful life. In my opinion a successful life is having a peace of mind, reaching your goals to give your children the best education that you can give and most of all having God in your life. How about you,, what is your opinion in successful life?

Success is like knowing the combination to a lock. If you know the combination to a lock, it doesn't matter who you are; it has to open for you. It doesn't matter if you're a male or female, black or white, young or old, high IQ or low IQ.. it doesn't matter. If you know the combination, the lock has to open. The problem is, most of us go through life and we don't know the combination. We maybe have 3 or 4 numbers we need, but we don't have them all. If we can just spend time and do the research to know the combination to the lock... There are two ways to open the door, find the key, or break the door. Of course breaking the door is not only destructive but also requires force and strength and it's just not good. Let's find a key, let's find the combination. Happy mylotting bro.

Acheiving things with my hardwork,i feel the most satisfactory. For example,i can study well,get the first award in the school when i was a student,i can run faster than others in the sports meeting,i can get a good job with my ability ,and earn as much as i can through my working,i can buy a car or even a house myself... That's not meaning i want to earn money with all my power,i just want to prove myself"I'm the best one,my life is worthy!" As you said,about the children and the family,yes,i think everything will be better with our effort. :)

Thanks for your response. As per your opinion, I can say everybody has a different meaning of successful in life. Other friends that I have talk to has also a different view of successful life. The common thing is everybody has a goal in life and when he/she achieve the set goal, that you can say I have a successful life. Thanks again. :)
