Defining Success
It has been said many times on this site that the definition of success is a very personal thing. Your definition of success may not be the same as everyone else’s, and that is OK. This site tries to take a broad approach to success, oftentimes discussing commonly used success yard sticks, such as money, but sometimes exploring other softer measures of success, such as personal development and spiritual growth.
The discussion around the definition of success can be quite interesting. If you want to engage into a deep, meaningful, and sometimes emotional conversation with someone, try asking this question: How do you define success?
The Resident did exactly that. She went out on the streets and started interviewing people about their definition of success. Watch this video and see what you can tell from their answers. What are their backgrounds? What is most valuable to them? What do they care about? Where do they spend most of their time? Most importantly, how would you answer this question if someone stopped you on the streets and asked the same question? How would your answer differ from what you heard in this video?

When you reveal your definition of success you are revealing your personality, your values, your beliefs, and everything else that matters to you.
It would be great to hear how you define success. Please take a minute and submit your comments. This will not only be of great interest to all the readers of Worldwide Success, it would also help define the topics that this site should focus on.
To your success! (However you define it)
