Lots of people believe that to be successful in life you need to be a millionaire or a billionaire but there are different success.Mostly everyone of us have set goal we want to acheive,aim for things in life apart from money.When we achieve those set goals and our aims we are then successful.For instance you want to become a doctor you strive for that and when you become one you were successful.Of course everyone wants money,to rich and live the life.But success is not measured by the numbers in your bank account.what do you mylotters think is success?Tell me because i might be on the wrong track.

Bo Sanchez said it consists of desire, belief and action. But in my own opinion I believe you have to have a clear definition of what SUCCESS is. Does success means only money? fame? or being happy with the things you do? Then I guess the next step would consist of desire, belief and action.. and of course faith in God. With God, everything's possible :)

In my view, money is not a most critical matter in terms of success. Wealth is not the only yardstick for measuing success. Live as you belive, never walk in anyone's shodows. Go your own way, do your best. Everyone has a chance of success! Trust yourself! Good luck to you!

Hi,I think you're right,first of all we want to achieve our goals.I can imagine myself earning thousands from a job that I hate.I would have all I need maybe, but I wouldn't be satisfied.In my country people are still obsessed with studying law and medicine.As a result, we have doctors and lawyers who are much better as a cooks,you know.I think being successful means doing what you are good at, what you like.

well depends if you mean success in work or out side of work, I consider myself successful as been self employed since age of 19 and ran my own online business for last 5 years. Tho the money is a great bi-product though I now view myself as successful when I help other people to create themselves a full time salary working online. That to me is success, and its why I am involved in affiliate marketing to help people reliese their dreams, and in turn keep myself financially stable. twitter - benbo128

One of the first things to do be succesful is to love yourself and trust yourself. I also think that you need to have a positive approach and be prepared for what will come next in the process. All experience will be a learning process.
