I'm going to answer the best way I can, I give you my best thoughts.
The secret to being successful in life is to have confidence. Confidence that you can and are able to succeed in whatever you put your mind to. Trusting in yourself, Faith in yourself & being Greatful for what you already have will lead you to more of what you want out of life.
I think of success as something I've already obtained and will be glad to smile politely to everyone, everyday, for feeling positive brings positive results. Spread the positive vibes.
Do I want it, I respect those who have it and consider myself successful in my own way, because happiness is the answer for me I've got it.

The secret to a successful life is reaizing ones actual purpose and who they are in reality. We are not this material body, IE; Race, color, nationality, Religion, mind, intellect, senses, job, etc. We are all eternal spirit souls, part and parcel of the Supreme Soul, also known as Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, etc. We never die, only this mortal body dies. This material world is not our real home, it is called Maya (illusion) and is temporary and full of misery, only one fourth of the souls come here, and the rest are enjoying blissful eternal loving relationships with our Maker named above. We fell here due to envying Gods position. He made the material world for those who want to try to live separately from Him (Which is impossible because He is actually everywhere). After many lifetimes of trying to be happy in this temporary world one becomes frustrated and board and begins to question their existence. We then seek out real happiness, and when one becomes sincere God reveals how to come back Home. Those who are intelligent, take up the process of self realization (Bhakti Yoga) which begins with the chanting of the Maha Mantra (the great mantra for deliverance from all suffering and illusion), which gives one real peace, happiness and reality. Then at the end of life they can give up all material attachments and fully surrender to God and return to the eternal Kingdom, where there is no more birth, death, old age, or disease and be eternally happy. I am so glad I know who I am now.

I think the secret of a successful life is in the definition. If to you success is having a large amount of money, then the secret of success would be to obtain as much money as possible. but if to you success is a happy family, then the secret would be with in the way you go about meeting this goal. Families are a dynamic and in order to have a successful one you must bend and change with the dynamic. There are as many different secrets to success as there are definitions of it.

The zeal, determination and rage to conquer should be there. I would say that the specific person should have a bright vision of himself as to where he would like to see himself or herself in, say, ten years. We should always aim for the skies, for if we do not get it, we are bound to hit the top of a tree. But if we aim for the top of the tree, then we may not even get off the ground. The idea of being successful is rejected by those who constantly think that they will never be able to make it in life. They shatter their own dreams by thinking negative and trouble their surroundings. They limit themselves to what they can presently afford and do not think that one day they could be reaching heights by their own efforts and hard work. Success is something which is not waiting for you at the other side of the road, but something which you have to pave the path for and strive real hard for. Live large! Dream BIG!

Identify yourself what the goal(s).These may be ....a lot of money; a good placement in a job; a posh house ; a nice and handsome guy as your life partner; a few children who turn out to be nice ones in every respect; a good friend who can rely upon and so on.Once the Identification is over, try to achieve each one according to your preference.
But, I can tel you one thing , nothing is greater than peace of mind, sense of security in life, a morally good life that gives plenty of happiness.
I always think taking these points into account , you can go ahead smoothly in a lifetime journey with a smile in your face.
God Bless

success means different things for different people. I feel success when I am able to help others around me find answers for themselves that give them confidence and resolution, putting out little fires around my house and encouraging my family, when they accept my help then I feel success which in turns makes me feel happy. Some people equate success by how much they earn, or how many degrees they have, or what they specialize in. So I guess the secret to be successful is finding out what you are successful at.

I don't think there is a secret to be successful in life. The way to get there is through hard work and passion for what you are doing. Of course i want success. I think my success is when i am financially comfortable in my life and i can take care of my family the way i need to. My success will be being able to take care of myself and my family comfortably.

Acting on your passions, and willing to accept responsibility for your situation. I doubt that others would view me as successful, but I am very contented with my life, and am at peace with the kind of person that I have become.
