One quality that speaks success to me is a thriving, teeming life filled with other people and activities. People who enjoy the thought/activity edge a bit, without the stress. Also, people who have the ability to ride the ups/downs and come out alive and somehow better for them.
Actually I think I might view the whole ideal tropical surfer life as somehow successful, or maybe thats jealousy.
As for me, I dont know if Im successful. Sometimes I think I might be and other times not so much. Being an urbanite, it doesnt bode well that Ill succeed in that surfer life so maybe Im a failure, but there might be other occasions in my real life when I do okay.
