What is success ?

 

For me, success isn't just about reaching goals; it's about the profound sense of fulfillment and joy that floods through me when I do. It's about that overwhelming feeling of pride that comes from knowing I've accomplished something meaningful. I believe success requires me to push myself beyond my limits, to pour all my effort and energy into my endeavors, and to persevere relentlessly until I achieve what I desire. In essence, success is the culmination of my dedication, determination, and unwavering commitment to never settle for anything less than my dreams. 

Success is when you reach the goals and dreams you set for yourself. It can also mean being well-off and maybe even famous. The dictionary says success is about getting rich, doing well, and becoming famous.

In the first five chapters of "Into the Wild" by Jon Krakauer, success for Alex, also known as Christopher McCandless, is portrayed as a desire to break free from societal expectations and live a life of adventure and self-discovery. He's shown as a young man who rejects materialism and the traditional path of success pursued by many of his peers. Instead, he embarks on a journey of exploration and self-reliance, leaving behind his comfortable life and family to wander the country. Success, to him, seems to lie in the pursuit of personal freedom and authenticity, as he seeks to find meaning and purpose on his own terms, away from the constraints of society.
