I think the best definition was given by SOCRATES as below:
To laugh often and love much;
to win the respect of intellingent persons and the affection of children;
to earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty;
to find the best in others;
to give of one's self;
to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation;
to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived -
this is to have succeeded

Present generation is interpreting the word success in a very wrong way. Success doesnt necessarily bring you money , name and fame. A house wife who takes good care of her house and her children is also said to be successful. A saint who gets salvation with all his efforts is also successful. So going to abroad and earning money and fame is not the only thing to become successful in one 's life. I feel "when a person struggles a lot to achieve something he desires and gets it , the satisfaction his soul gets is worth more than million dollars. We can define Success as that contentment of the heart"

Success is a relative term. Anything that gives you peace and contentment is the real success. It's never wealth and riches that should be termed as success. A person with very limited resources and possessions can be happier than a multi-millionaire and hence successful. Success can be acheived by following the better values of life than cherishing for its glamour.

The defination of success is very personal I believe....for some it might be to be a billionaire for others it may mean being a housewife with kids or just being able to provide for their family's needs....
Success means accomplishing whatever you feel deep down is your purpose in this ...earn power or make lots of money or looking after kids...or having a loving home ....anything.

I believe that it is a mixture of an overall sense of well being, and being content with whatever path your life has followed.
The person with the Ferrari and house in the hills could have scammed people his whole life to get there, while the man in a grasshut in Africa earned a humble, honest living and is happy.................who's the successful one?
