In my opinion, success is relative to the person achieveing it. A gold medal may signify success to one person, while may mean as much as another piece of junk to another. A person may consider career achievements as success, while it can be a peaceful and harmonious family life to another. Success is also relative to time. As we so often put it, man's thirst for achievement is unquenchable. Therefore, passing the board exam may mean success to one at that time, while later in life he may be pursuing some other goal which he finds to be a better measure of success than some silly ol' exam.
For me, success is doing everything and anything which brings satisfaction and happiness to myself and the people that surrounds me. Success does not have to be as big as solving the unending problems of poverty in the Philippines, nor inventing some gadget that makes time travel possible. I relish success in the smallest forms that it comes to me. It may be as little as finding joy in my work, helping a co-worker, beating deadlines, finalizing projects, giving good advise to friends, acing a subject, etc. In this way, I get to relish every moment in my life where I am able to exceed expectations, overcome hurdles, bring laughter to the miserable, and hope to the distressed. Life seems so much better when you get to look forward to a whole lot of success in a single day. So, am I a success? I say that question's reltive.
