When you want to achieve something and you get it, that’s success.

When you’re leading a happy life, that’s a successful life.

Every single success in life is improtant and counts towards a successful life. But, one success shouldn’t be misunderstood as a successful life. A success is nothing but achieving a target. And when you achieve a target, doesn't always mean you have got success in your life, until the target is “leading a happy life”. You may need a lot of successes to have a successful life. So,

Keep going and keep succeeding, you’ll eventually have a successful life.

A success can be in many forms:

  1. When you are well done with your education
  2. When you get a handsome job
  3. When you are earning well
  4. When you get the partner you had always wanted
  5. When you get promoted in your job
  6. When you buy something you had always wanted
  7. When you visit all the destinations you had always wanted

And, the list goes on infinitely. Success has no limits and boundaries.

However, a successful life has just one form:

When you lead a happy life.

And, a happy life is a result of your act and attitude. Successes in different forms eventually make you satisfied, and when you’re satisfied, you’re happy, and you’re leading a successful life.

To be happy, you need to be satisfied.
