We all have different perspective on what success means. Some or most of the people will picture it as somebody who is earning a lot of money, some will see it as being stable in all aspects. If I were to be asked I can say that I am successful if I already stable in all aspects of life. Psychologically,emotionally, physically and of course financially. Doesnt need to be rich but someone with her own house and car.. With a business and a savings account. LOL. Good relationship in the family. Then I an say I am successful. How about you guys? What's your criteria of being a successful person.

Hi clouds, Success means achieving your objective satisfactorily. For me, I can say that I am successful in my life if I am happy with what I am, and contented with what I have because I believe that each one of us has its own destiny and place in this creation by the Lord.

“Success means having the courage, the determination, and the will to become the person you believe you were meant to be” This is a qoute by George Sheehan and I feel it really sums things up as far as seccess.

If I were to say I'm successful it would have to be when I've reached all my goals. That's what success is to me, reaching all (or most) of my goals! :-)

Being blunt with you... you can never say you are successful if you have high hopes and wants.. for example - I never feel I am successful because i always try to find ways to break my own record...

Success is the opposite of failure. That's the key words here. If you have aimed for something, and you did not land to stalemate or failure, then probably are in the territory of success. That's how simple the definition of success is.
