How do you define success?

indyjoe · 56-60, M
To me it's when you reach a point where even though there might be some things you still would like to see in your life, when you look at where you are and what you have it is enough...when you are happy and content with what is and you can be satisfied even if those other things never come to fruition then you are successful. Like now I am happy and content with who I am, what I've overcome and accomplished, where I am at in life, and what I have...sure there could always be a little better or little more, but as far as I'm concerned I have reached success.

Having enough of what you need to live in a way that makes you happy.

There are many facets of success. Work, play, love, achievement, etc. And you can only measure if you've succeeded at the end of the race. So, on your death bed, as you look back on your life, what will be the most important things to you?
That will be your definition of success.
To me, I know that it will be that I had a few wonderful friends, a loving wife, and that I did my best. Even when I fell down, I got up, was accountable, did my best to make amends, and I also tried my best to help others have a better day
Are there failures? Absolutely! Lots, but even those turn into successes if you learn what went into causing that failure.
I thank God every day that I live. And appreciate all the blessings that I have. Even if it's just the ability to see the beautiful colours on a small flower.

@SW-User so if no one loves you, you're a failure?

Depends on how an individual sees it. @eMortal

@eMortal No not necessarily, but to someone who wants, needs, and strives for many years or even practically their whole life to love and be loved...to finally find that is a huge success (I am speaking from experience).

Feeling great every day and feeling like you're growing in all areas of your life or in those that you are currently focusing on. Basically feeling like a billion dollars.

Success is when you try to do something and do it.
