Is how you define success different today than it was when you were younger?

Success now is being able to pay bills with some money left over.

Success before was being rich!

Absolutely. It used to be about the grafters, now is about quick wins, media personas, overpaid footballers and 4x4s

I used to see success as having a good career, nice house, new car, 2 nice holidays a year, stuff like that.

Now I see success as having healthy relationships with those that matter, family, friends, lovers.

I’ve never succeeded at either though

Is this how YOU define success though?

Success for me lies in my interactions with those around me.

If it's any consolation, you have nice tattoos though

What is success....... You can't define it neither can i...... If you're happy you've had a successful life if you're not you've failed

I have always thought success was having the freedom to be able to dance to your own tune. I still think that. I also now think that knowing the kids have/are turning out well and that they are as well equipped as they can be to handle what life will throw at them is what matters most.

When I was younger, success was so much more related to financial things but through necessity rather than choice. Now, I know that success is about being happy and knowing that our loved ones are happy. Other than that, nothing really matters.

Success for me is my children growing up knowing they are loved, held, dressed, clean, learning.

I don't feel like i had any success when i was younger - i was lacking role models and meaningful, positive interaction

I genuinely think making it to 53 has been my greatest success

The big 54 could be your greatest achievement to come. Don't do anything silly in the meantime

Happiness. That's the measure of success for me. Also every day I manage to keep the small dog dependants alive... success!

Success has been forgiving many failings. Mine and others.

Being young success was achieving my aspirations and being self supporting. So far I've got half that right. To achieve more ambitions is the next stage.

I’ve always wanted to be happy. So I dunno how different it is. But I guess my main difference is probably that success isn’t about making my family proud it’s almost entirely about my happiness. Not just a little bit about my happiness

Knowing you give your best & stay true to your values. Doing work you believe benefits society, not worrying about money and having some good friends.
