RE: The secret of success in life
While this might come from a good place, the reality is success can only be described in one word - happiness. Do you live a happy life? Not based on your education, job or what society tells you what success is, but are you happy to be yourself and live your life authentically, the rest is just a big delusion, that things and accomplishments and accolades is success. Being on a path of genuine life is success and even then that's relative :)
Too true my bro, we are raised to perceive success through the judgement of others; parents, teachers, general society (which is why when someone you first meet asks what do you do, the usual answer from people is their job title). With success comes judgement, because one has to be judged in order to be classed as successful - and that is where the struggle lies.
You are entirely right in what you say, to be happy is to be also be successful in life
