Fabulous post ! This is exactly the sort of posts I am hoping for. People with varying points of view expressing their experiences, their thoughts, their opinions; all very valid! And I am hoping that as we all continue to explore and discuss the concept of success we will learn new things.

And, I want to say that I think you have hit on something that I too have been thinking about as we explore this topic. That is to say, can someone be "successful" in only one area from the list above and feel successful in general?

It brings up a discussion I had yesterday. The person I was talking to spoke of great success in the areas of career and finance but they don't feel successful as a family. Too much time away makes it really difficult to be a good parent and partner. So, is success more about a balance of successes in multiple parts of life? Or, as you suggest, a moving target that constantly evolves as we move through life?

You've given us a lot to think about! Thanks!
