what is the true measure of success?

Question

is it religion, is it love and relationships, or is it money and power?

Answer 1

Success is not measured by how much money you have, but rather by how happy you are. A poor man that is very happy in life is more successful than a miserable rich man

Answer 2

Happiness is the true measure of success. If you are happy you will be more likely to have as much money as you need, your relationships and love life will be successful, I beleive religion is only for those who cannot find faith in themselves, so if you are happy you need not rely on religion.

Answer 3

measure success by figuring out what you want from life (in other words set your goals) then you measure how you are succeeding in life by seeing how far you've come towards your goals!



Measuring your success is very easy, and doesn't have anything to do with any of those things you mentioned, although you will probably have goals related to all those things you mentioned (except religion).





Only you can measure your success. You can't measure someone else's success (unless they tell you exactly what they want out of life, and how far they've come towards getting what they want. Likewise no one can tell you if you are a success or not, because you decide your own goals, no one else can do that!

Answer 4

The true measure of success is how happy you are with your life and the way that it turned out. Nothing else really matters if you are not happy with yourself. It does not matter what others think of you, but what you think of yourself. That is how I see success.

Answer 5

True measure of success can only be determined by you using your own perspective of the meaning of the word success.

Answer 6

its happiness and being content with your life. if youre happy when you have money and power, then thats your measure of happiness but alot of people dont need money. if youre happy when youre in love or in a relationship, then thats it for you, but not everyone needs to be in a relationship to be happy.



you get my point.

Answer 7

It's HAPPINESS! e.g. It would be better to be poor and happy than to be rich and miserable. I know both sides here. The happy poor and the miserable rich. Lucky for me I am somewhere in the middle......LOL

Answer 8

When you say to yourself, I have been successful.

Answer 9

I think it is being happy where you are in life and who you are.

Answer 10

all i can say is that different people different values. so don't try to follow others as u might regret later
