      completely agree with you! satisfaction is the only parameter.amount of money and other riches are relative.

    I'm with sexywebmaster here....how much you enjoy is really all that matters in success.

    We naturally contribute and we naturally fall into a status...

    I think there's two sides to the story....

    1. Success...how everyone sees it...goals, money, relationships, etc.

    2. Have fun and enjoy your life...live it the way you choose because that's why you're here in the first place....every person is unique & $1,000,000 to someone could be a complete failure is he lost all his friends on the way....

    It's 100% personal so make up your own definition of success!

    Success is always goal-orientated. Therefore success can only be determind or measured by the individual itself.

    It might be a success for someone to make $50 online income per month.

      Honor is sacred.
      What is left when honor is lost? Syrus
      ... Honour ... remains awake in us like a last lamp in a temple that has been laid to waste.

    I see success as achieving the goals you set for yourself, keeping in mind to keep your goals realistic but not too simple or easy to accomplish, to maintain a level of challenge.

    Happiness, Quality of Life, and Strength of Relationships. The all work together in my opinion. If my income is increasing and I can buy nice things but I find the relationships around me deteriorating, I have not succeeded.

    On my opinion, success is building an honorable character while you learn and offer the best of you, in your career and your relationships.
    Also, another definition is achieving what you have in mind.

    If you are getting the things you want then you are successful. Peace of mind is really important. If you do not have peace of mind then you are not successful. Do not measure success with money. Never compare yourself with others.

    If you wanted to have a car few months back and you have it now, it means you are successful because you are able to fulfill your dreams. This is just my thinking.
