The purpose of judging own success offers better clarity.
Contentment in life comes from liking what we have instead of trying to have what we like !
The relationship with the spouse too can be rooted on the same footing, to give the feeling of success or contentment.
The purpose of judging is to introspect whether we did well. If we decide to do our best at all times, then this success is also ensured because the very effort (having done just OUR best always) too gives adequate contentment, and feeling of success !

Contentment is a state of mind, not necessarily resulting from success. Relationships are not just your own success - there is that other hand for the clap.
I have realised, after much water has already flown and perhaps when it may be a trifle bit too late, that the success meter of life should perhaps be measured by what one has done for others without any selfish motive and further, not merely under a momentary emotional influence. In other words, our actions that were taken purposefully for the benefit of others without any ulterior motive. I was surprised that when I realised this, I could recall only two such actions in my life spanning so many years till then.

Very difficult if you are a man. Very simple if you are a woman. Because men are egoistic and believe in 'one-upmanship' even with spouses. Thats the problem with the specie. Women are quite, sedate, stern from inside, yet caring. These things like judging success simlply do not occur. Did you get the answer? If yes, you are on the right track to judging success. If no, accept my prayers that you shall be meet up with success! Good luck!

Every success in my life, be it career, family, is a step for me to look back, before I go forward. Look back to see what it is that I did better than the others , to succeed. Nine out of ten times , I found that I was no better than the others . Rather , others were as good as me. Still how did I choose to succeed?
The only answer I have is that I had the grace of an unknown hand to lift me up.
So, I , now , judge my own success by the amount of humility it generates

You set your own yardstick for measurements, different people have different expectations. What are your goals/objectives, things you wanted to achieve out of life/relationship. How much have you achieved, are you happy with the results? Or do you need to work a little more? Only you can gauge the level of success. Cheers! Be happy :-)

I judge my success on personal relationships. Be it my spouse, children, parents, siblings, friends, etc.
Things and jobs come and go, but personal relationships can last a lifetime.

YOU CAN JUDGE YOUR SUCCESS BEST IN THE LIGHT OF YOUR FAMILY BACKGROUND AND YOUR RESOURCES....
TRY TO READ THE FACE OF YOUR SPOUSE...AS TO HOW OFTEN HE/SHE IS HAPPY...AND WHY..IF THE CAUSE OF HAPPINESS IS SOMETHING YOU SAID OR DID ...THEN RELAX YOU ARE A SUCCESSFUL SPOUSE
