Definition of Success

I would like to share a poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson.

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;

To earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, To find the best in others;

To leave the World a bit better whether by
a garden patch, a healthy child
or a redeemed social condition;

To know even one life has breathed
easier because you have lived.

That is to have succeeded
