What is Success...?

Success... a word ringing all around us... I'd like to know what it means really..,

What does this word mean..., Is it

- The marks or Academic Benchmarks we breach...

- The Career Objectives like Position., Profile etc you get yourselves into...

-Or like the Dictionary Definition..

1.the favorable or prosperous termination of attempts or endeavors.
2.the attainment of wealth, position, honors.

But real success is closer to Swami Vivekananda's definion..

1. "Success is a State of Mind"
2. "Success is to Know that at least one others life has breathed easier because of you "

Mere academic and economic achievement are percieved as success ., and if all efforts are dedicated towards these achievements, so what is the real essence of our existence...?

Money., power., Knowledge..? All these are important but., like they say "Too much of anything is good for nothing... " running behind these takes us Nowhere...

It'll be a lot better if our efforts are focussed in achieving " success " which is a perpectual Journey towards "a interdependent life" where "Living" makes sense...
where we care for People., nature., and things which are really important...

Coz Life is Not a F1 Race where u have a destination... to make it to the Podium... itz a journey where u make friends.., learn., teach., share., and ofcourse enjoy...

Comments....!!!!
