There is no true definition of success. Success is what we define it to be, it is what we feel it is. However, I can't deny that there's a general perception of what success is.

When you accomplish your dreams and goals that's success. When you start something and finish it, that's success. When you start a marathon race and complete it, that's success.

When you pick children on the streets who are not yours and train them to become valuable people who life who make meaningful contributions to the society that's success.

When you spend sleepless nights in school or at home studying for a course or exams, burning the midnight candle and oil and then you eventually scale through, that's success.

When you draw a new business plan for your business to increase sales and generate more profit, that's success.

When you buy your dream car and dream house, that's succes. When you marry a man or woman of your dreams and end up making children together, that's succes.

When other people succeed because of your own efforts or the sacrifice you made, that's success.

When you pass down an idea, vision, concept, dream, structure, values or a set of traditions to another generation or person, that's success.

When school children with torn school uniforms and no footwears and writing materials now have them because of you, that's success.

Success could be an event, your health, a breakthrough, an idea, a tradition, a concept, a name, a property or a feeling. It is what we think it is.

Personality, there's nothing more successful than leaving yourself and others more better than you met them everyday.
