What is success? Well, the answer to that question largely depends on who you ask. There can be as many definitions as there are people on this Earth to this question. The multitude of differing opinions can make the entire issue of success very confusing. In addition, having so many options can make it difficult for anyone to decide for themselves what success means to them. Should a person let society tell them what success is or should each person make that decision on their own. The problem with letting someone else decide on the definition of success for you is that you greatly increase the chances that you would end up with a definition that doesn’t suit you. It’s a little bit like letting someone else order for you in a restaurant. You will certainly end up eating what they like, but you very likely won’t end up with the exact meal that suits your own tastes.
