I'll give ya three:
The best things in life are free.
or-
Appreciating and understanding that I am an individual and there is only one me not to be compared to anyone else.
or-
Attitude is everything.
Now let me explain. So many people think success means having power or money. When you are on your death bed, you will definitely know that money or power never did a thing for you in life. It doesn't love you. Sure everyone needs money to live, but being wealthy doesn't really have anything to do with real success. Understanding that coming home to someone who loves you, or feeling the first warmth of the sun after winter, hearing a baby's laugh, or finally tackling a personal demon- such as fear of heights, being a doormat to people, or losing that 50 lbs. are the kinds of things in life that money cannot buy. This is what life is about, this is what makes it worth living. When your mind is obsessed with the ridiculous like the labels on your clothes or how big your house is, you can't enjoy these things. Set your priorities straight so that you can truly enjoy these gifts. We are here to love one another, but many people don't realize that that includes themselves. You will always be your hardest critic. Nobody else in life will try to bring you down or destroy more than yourself. One of life's greatest lessons is to love yourself enough to realize that you deserve to be genuinely happy too. The kind of happy that money cannot buy.

Success is when at least one thing during your day goes the right way. Success for me is when I have all my laundry done and put away; I'm not always successful. Life goes on. Success is how you feel about something you've completed that you didn't think you would.

Success is enough money to escape thinking on necessities daily, a life partner that fits you wonderfully, an outlook that is grateful for the small things in life, and the pursuit of a worthy goal.
