personal happiness...how do define failure?

touche

you post reminds me of a SNL skit where it is Mike Meyers playing Linda Richman (a jewish yenta) and when she get verklempt she says "I am getting verklempt. I will give you a topic. Sweet Peas. Neither sweet, neither peas. Talk amongst yourselves, discuss. You are the Linda Richman of Eskimo and Steve is fastly getting there. You may even call Steve the Don Juan of it.

tasha... if success is personal happiness for you, how do you get there? what is the means to the end?


failure, for me personally, would be something along the lines of not reaching a personal goal that i set for myself. that is pretty far-reaching... anything from school to my own guidelines of morality and how to act as a person.

wow, steve is the don juan of eskimo? lol.

no, he is the don juan of thought-provoking questions on Eskimo. You are Nathaniel to his Ayn Rand.

thank you, tasha.

ha, ha...she is your nathienal. it's okay, I know who started it. Megan, love, you are going to have to catch up with steve here. wow, this post will be my 400th.

i am trying to catch up! there is so much to learn. i mean, i just learned steve's NAME.


back to the question(s) at hand.

I had to ask him three times before he told me his name. I prefer to use people's names and not there screename. Not sure where he got the KAVU478

Success - Achieving personal Goals and happily reflecting on how you got there.


Failure - No such thing, just delayed successes.


Nice avatar Kavu.

i define successon a personal level as happiness


any way you get there is fine, as long as you do not impead upon the happiness of others

you simply CANNOT reach happiness if you impead upon the happiness of othes. deep down inside you must feel terrible if you do it that way..

well to a certain degree you can


example: you are up for your dream job...you are by far the best candidate and hence get the job...you are happy.


person who didn't get the job is unhappy...you INDIRECTLY impeaded upon his happiness

gosh, you go far [img]smileys/smiley11.gif[/img]


but than, the other person who didn't get the job is responsible for my happiness. so, he or she is blessed with that.

sorry..i should have been philosophy major [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

me too

what do you do instead?

i'm an office- and contentmanager at a multi-discipline-music company. very philosophical people here by the way

want to give me a job..i have no problem leaving the US?? lol

Sucess or how sucessfull you are is something other people judge for you. Your own personal happiness is all that counts.
