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.

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


Failure - No such thing, just delayed successes.

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

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