What do you mean by becoming successful? Does it mean earning a lot of money, does it mean to be famous or does it mean to be able to be happy and content with your life ?? Many spiritual guru's might say being happy is more important than earning loads of money but I would like to ask them one simple question, can you be happy if you have to live on the streets and worry how my next meal will come, NO right. So after giving it a lot of thought I feel it is much better to cry in a BMW than in a bicycle.
Coming back to success, yes I am sure a successful person may be brilliant, like a Mark Zuckerberg is in computers or a J.K. Rowling is in storytelling, but ultimately the point in contention here is, would they be deemed as succesful had they not become billionaires?? So this further reiterates my point that even though happiness, contentment, fulfillness are good to hear and preach however the main aim in today's hard hitting, cut throat competitive world is to become RICH !!!
Being Successful is a subjective topic,, for me being successful is not driving fancy cars and living in mansions with 150 workers around,, i would feel successful when i do not have to worry about my future and and i am able to help the needy around me or when i am able to make a significant contribution to the people around.
