What is Success?

southcentralts

So I now find myself on the verge of becoming a success, within 1 month, in a profession I have no experience in (and pretty much still have no clue about, but with positions shifting about so much, I appear to be doing well). which has led me to contemplate the meaning of success itself, as I spent years in my previous position working hard, only to have some 3-weeker become my supervisor.

What have I learned - I don't know what success really is!

What does matter is what do we boardsie's feel is the definition of success?

Peeling a mandarin and getting all of the skin off in one go, and making it look like a star in the process.

You have achieved success if you have lived well, laughed often and loved much.

At age 4, success is…not peeing your pants.

At age 12, success is…having friends.

At age 20, success is…having sex.

At age 35, success is…making money.

At age 60, success is…having sex.

At age 70, success is…having friends.

At age 80, success is…not peeing your pants.

Great family and friends

As nobody on their deathbed ever wishes they processed more work in the office

So don't be the office martyr

As you can kill yourself in work and your boss might still get rid of you for the FÁS free labour scheme

Anyway, success is not dying.

so, it's sorta short-lived if you think about it.

LH Pathe

success is anything you set out to accomplish.

could mean anything really, from scaling k2 to not peeing down your leg

Success is not letting anybody down if they need you (friends, family and strangers if you like).

This.

Admirable goal, best of luck with it, though you have a better chance of peeing down your leg at the top of K2

Success is all about nurturing a great relationship with family members and friends.

This is important but setting the bar pretty low as a definition for success.

To some people it is the only measure of success, while to others it does not even rank.

For me I hate to admit that I have never had a great relationship with anyone, so I do not rank it high, success-wise.

just be happy yourself for whatever success you've achieved, you don't need a bunch of randommers on the interweb to pat you on the back.

Call me a cynic but I suspect it is the only thing those people are particularly successful at.

I've a good relationship with family and friends but I sincerely hope my achievements don't stop there.

Success is complete financial independence to do what you like.

Well I was not expecting a pat on the back, or cabbages to the head. But I am sure someday soon, someone is going to expect me to do some...work or something, so I may as well enjoy the good times while they last.

Crazy job is all about attitude, act like a dick and tell people you are all about the money and you get rewarded, then blame everyone else when it all goes tits up = huge success??:( .Not my idea of a happy lifestyle, but it is not like you can pick and choose what to do these days.

Success is the fulfillment of your goals no matter how medial
