Define Success

So blog number thirteen! I have to write 600 words on “Define success”. In Merriam Webster success is defined as the fact of getting or achieving wealth, respect, or fame. The correct or desired  result of an attempt and someone or something that is successful: a person or thing that succeeds. In The Oxford Dictionary they define success as an accomplishment of an aim or purpose.

To some people success is defined by its amount wealth. The more money a person has the more successful they are in life because they have money to support themselves and their family, making them more successful. To some people success is defined by the amount of respect a person has. To those who think success is from respect it’s because the respect they have is valuable and meaning the respect is power. To others another form of success is from fame. The more fame you have the more success you are. Since you are becoming famous the more you are noticed, the more wealth you have, the more successful you are. You can cause an impact to today’s society.

To me, I don’t define success like that. In my opinion success is defined by the achievement or accomplishment a person has made to get to their aim or purpose. Success shouldn’t be defined by wealth, respect, or fame. For example a poor old farmer can be successful by having a good farm year and selling enough of his wheat or whatever he grows to support himself. Success should be defined as an accomplishment to get to where you want to go.
