For me, I think it's about achieving balance across different areas of life. Not investing everything in one area and neglecting the others.

I don't know really. I think it becomes a bit of a meaningless word if you define it as 'anything you feel is important for you' etc. If I think about people I'd describe as successful, I think of people who have risen high up in their field of work or endeavour. That's not something I particularly aspire to myself though. I'm perfectly happy to be unexceptional Grin

What's important to me is health and happiness for me and my family, but I don't think 'success' is the word I'd choose for that tbh.
