Do you knows success?

I can imagine success as a name normally instead of it's original purpose and in the other words success is define in different cultures and traditions including backgrounds, how we all see success despite it's mean thoughts defer. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmc2jhVGtrLvXR7hf24SrzviUXcaGvCq1c5xLoqxGtvvd7/rnfetchblobtmp_y9vypj21qmbycmc4ejy8c.jpg) Namaste everyone I'm @techstyle I hope I'm much welcome to this great #indiaunited community, this my very first time posting here. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmNkfunJDAPkdMQPP5dqziMrMSMuG8gnqLYP2JZct9RiqY/photo_1523287562758_66c7fc58967f.jpeg) [source](https://unsplash.com/photos/low-angle-photography-of-man-in-the-middle-of-buidligns-Ua-agENjmI4) Let's look at the topic in the this context, as a Nigerian there are different way we see success here, and this applies to different people in the world. Let's strive into how Oxford dictionary describes success >the fact that you have achieved something that you want and have been trying to do or get. [source ](https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/success?q=Success+) This very much fact and I see this as progress. We can also see success as one of those words that seems simple until you drive in with it. I want to buy a car and finally get the money to purchase it, even though I'm yet to receive the car but having the money already is success in part. For some people, it’s tied to luxury and the dream house in "Lekki" Nigeria one of the most expensive places in the country, the latest iPhone for celebrities, a wardrobe full of designer clothes. For others, it’s waking up without an alarm clock, sipping tea on a quiet balcony, and knowing the bills are already handled, that is success. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmc2jhVGtrLvXR7hf24SrzviUXcaGvCq1c5xLoqxGtvvd7/rnfetchblobtmp_y9vypj21qmbycmc4ejy8c.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmeEAs59citYEgeaDZgcSZPFDAvLwaGm8ZHLf9ykadgvkE/istockphoto_517675319_612x612.jpg) [source](https://www.istockphoto.com/photo/success-gm517675319-48814986?utm_campaign=adp_photos_sponsored&utm_content=https%3A%2F%2Funsplash.com%2Fphotos%2Flow-angle-photography-of-man-in-the-middle-of-buidligns-Ua-agENjmI4&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=unsplash&utm_term=business%3A%3A%3A) **A little story you might love,** I remember a friend who always said he would know he was successful the day he could take his whole family on vacation without checking his bank account balance twice. Funny as it's sounds, but that success for him. Another friend She feels successful every time she bakes bread with her kids on Saturday mornings, filling the house with laughter and every one is happy. You can see this two completely different lifestyles, but both rooted in what matters to them, that's success for them. And when we look at it from their perspective they are successful within even though some other people might not think it's a successful life. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmc2jhVGtrLvXR7hf24SrzviUXcaGvCq1c5xLoqxGtvvd7/rnfetchblobtmp_y9vypj21qmbycmc4ejy8c.jpg) For me, success has shifted over time. In my early age as a child, what see as success is passing my exams and my parents is happy about it, then at my early 20s began to see success in other dimensions, I thought it was about proving myself, climbing the ladderboard in everything I do buying things that showed I was “doing well" both in school, But the older I get, the more I find success in balance: working enough to meet my needs, yet still having time to walk in the evening, call a loved one, or sit quietly with my thoughts. Think about marriage and how to marry the woman of my dream, the best lifestyle I ever dreamed about. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmc2jhVGtrLvXR7hf24SrzviUXcaGvCq1c5xLoqxGtvvd7/rnfetchblobtmp_y9vypj21qmbycmc4ejy8c.jpg) Do you have know the more you succeed or grow you see more review about success, Maybe success is less about how impressive your life looks on the outside, and more about how comfortable it feels on the inside. I believe this the way to express success in everything we do. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmc2jhVGtrLvXR7hf24SrzviUXcaGvCq1c5xLoqxGtvvd7/rnfetchblobtmp_y9vypj21qmbycmc4ejy8c.jpg) If you are reading this post you can as well share a little insight on, what does success look like in your lifestyle? Is it the car you drive, the passport stamps in your collection, or the freedom to slow down and enjoy life at your own pace?
