How do you personally define success?
Away from the usual trappings like "enough money to do anything I can ever want",
most people tend to define success by the way others think about them.
A person feels like a success when they earn the recognition and respect of
the people they admire. When we build a character others like and respect, we
consider ourselves to be successful

你向來如何定義成功?除了一般老套「有足夠的錢，就可以做任何
想做的事」的定義外，多數人往往從別人對自己的看法來定義成功，當
自己受到景仰之人認同與讚賞時，就認為這即是成功。發展出受大眾喜
歡與尊敬的性格，就是我們認定的成功。
