Success

Success. A word full of awe. Everyone wants a piece of it.

 

Success is relative. Relative in the sense that its definition keeps getting bigger as we achieve it, and also relative in the sense that it means different things to people.

 

What if our brains were pre-wired to a certain definition of success. What if the purpose of our existence was merely to achieve a certain goal that we were set out to do since birth. What if we knew that we would live as long as we do not achieve that goal. Would people work towards it more diligently?

 

No one really has the answer to what a successful life is. Maybe it is because no one has the authority to judge what success means to other people. There is one thing that defines the rewarding feeling of success and it is the same for all of us; the more struggles we go through before achieving our goal, the more deserving we feel of the reward once that goal is achieved.
