Good point.
My good friend says “you either grow or die, there is no in-between” which I like a lot and which resonates a lot with your comment, isn’t it?
I’m also seeing that success is a numbers game and luck (where luck is when skill meets opportunity). I’m a fan of skilled living.
I think it is truely one’s own individual definition. Based on your values, goals etc.
I’m interested, what is your definition of success Alik?
Great topic and idea to collate some thoughts around the blogosphere.

Ruth, meet JD!

Thanks for good words - may be I am on my way to crack the secret of successful blog? What do you say?
Bamboo Forest,
No probs! - welcome. Thanks for adding value to the post by your insights.
Juliet,
My definition of success? I adopted it from John Wooden - it is the last quote in the post - like it?
Good insight - I like your view on success in blogging.
I am super successful blogger since I have so much joy doing it - nothing can compare with it (except my family). It gives me peace of mind …. seen Wooden definition for success? Love it!
i think it is fine since it is *their* definition for success. Money might give you freedom…. or slavery…. ;(
I think it all boils down to where people stay wrt Maslow pyramid, here is what I have just seen on Twitter:
“There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread” - i think money for them is a huge success…..
Maybe it’s me but I also believe that we should always be striving to become greater, I think that is what success is.
I mean it kind of sucks if you say become a millionaire and stop their because you achieved success.
Great to hear it moved you
It might be a good sign for my efforts - my ultimate goal to make others practice this
Am I on track?…..
When I know that I did the best I possibly can with what I got.
Great post, I enjoy reading it.
Thanks,
