How do you define success? Buying your first home or your second, a promotion at work, good health results, passing the test? Or is it more than that?

Does it have to be something on the outside you receive or can it be a feeling that is felt from the inside? Something that is achieved by working your way through, wadding through the thick and heaviness until you make it to a point where you feel light and free?
