When do you know you have reached success? Is there certain goals you know you have reached, when you think you have a successful life?

if you know you have done the very best you can….that is success. being your absolute best.
Success is getting what you want out of life.
Happiness is wanting what you get out of life.
having lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Success is having mastery over self. It is a constant challenge that as we improve, we see more areas that we can improve in. It is a journey (as is life) and not a destination.
My personal goal would be to stay sober , keep my children, relight my marriage and regain my wife’s respect. I suppose it is all relative really, isn’t it? Five years ago I would have said cars, houses and money. Now I know it is all about the relationships you have with people and yourself that are the REAL mark of success
I don’t think I will ever reach my pinnacle of success, as that would give me nothing on which to improve. It would be the day that I stop living!
Success is when you wake up happy in the morning, looking forward to a new enjoyable and interesting day.
Success, to me, is being happy with who you are, having
kids that grow up to be great adults, having a job that you actually like, and living up to your potential every day. I’m almost there. When both my daughters are the women I know they will be, I will feel that I have accomplished my greatest success.
