How do you define happiness and success?

I believe in the quotation above. That's why I define happiness and success as choices. You can choose to be happy and successful or not. These two are not measured by material things but by one's mental state.
A poor person may believe that he is happy and successful despite his lack of material possessions because of his state of mind, and he is so.
Likewise, a rich man may feel unhappy and unsuccessful because he thinks that way, and his state of mind makes him so.
In any unpleasant event in life, you can always find something positive. It can not be easy at first, but once you get used to it, you can perceive everything positively.
What about you? Are you happy and successful or not?
Why do you choose to be that way?

I cannot say how successful I am but yes I am happy though I am alone now. No arguments and no adjustments.

By the world's standard I may not be called successful but I'm still happy with my life. I'm contented even if there's a lot of things I miss in this life.

Those are nice words. Acceptance is the way to stay happy.
