Success

[nunqual]

Success is an extremely relative topic. Each person's definition is different, so why not tell us your definition? and I know that your definition will change through your life, so give us your current definition.

Mine would be doing what you love, being respected for it, and having fun while doing it.

Achiveing what you had set out to do.


Simple, but true.

 

[CarpathianMuffin]

For me, it's looking back on something that you're proud of doing and saying "There's no way that I could've improved on that."

 

[Naheal]

Success is determined by what my initial goals and what the end result was. If I have accomplished over 75% of my goals, then I consider that to be a success.

 

[Bloodstain]

Knowing that someone cares about you, about what you do, about what you think and about what you feel.

Edit:

For me, it's looking back on something that you're proud of doing and saying "There's no way that I could've improved on that."

Oh, and that one.

I honestly don't know. I mean I'm 22 and I think the only thing I've ever done right is bring up two beautiful little girls, which I'll continue doing for the rest of my life. So I suppose my definition is bringing up those girls as best I can.

Do you mean a definition of the word? If so, then I've gotta go with this.

Achiveing what you had set out to do.


Simple, but true.

If you mean "how do you define a successful life" then I've gotta go with the OPs definition.

That sounds like a pretty good definition of success to me

OT: If I were to put it generally, I would say success is achieving what you want to achieve.

 

[SuperSuperSuperGuy]

To me, success is achieving a goal. No more, no less.

My personal definition of Immortality, followed by the spread of Humanity outwards and into the stars, then hundreds of years later, Galactic Empire.
