Do you view yourself as being a success in life so far?

Question

If not, why? If you think you have done well, why?

Answer 1

Yeah, so far in life I've accomplished everything I've set out to do. I've made myself overcome my shyness, gotten into my first-choice university, cleaned my closet of skeletons, and just generally gotten to be a better person. There's still room for improvement, and lot's of it, but so far, so good. =)

Answer 2

I think I'm a success, but that's only because I've discovered the following:

You're working hard, I'm doing nothing. In one hundred years, we'll both be dead. Now, who's happier (and as a result, more successful)?

Me. Thus: I'm more successful than you. The gap widens.

Answer 3

I am very happy very successful with my life.  I have health and have my husband of 28 years.  3 really good friends.

A career in sales that just gets better.  I am so blessed thank you God.......

Answer 4

If you are a mum and doing a fantastic job and your kids turn out great..then I call that a success...or if you have a degree and end up in the career you love....if one has turned his/her life around from a bad start, to a positive life, then one would call that a success....what about all the the many citizens who are volunteers contributing their valuable time to many causes...the list goes on...so many different versions of success....success is not about making money in the long run...it's turning back at the end of your life and saying did I do the best I could and have I made a difference?

Answer 5

Yes; I enjoy my job, and I write and play music. Who cares if I don't have a big house? I'm happy being an individual.

Answer 6

Success is subjective. Until you have something you feel is worth succeeding in, you cannot call yourself a success and even when you do - You may not be a success to someone else.
