ways of being successful          

what is success? people define this notion in many different ways. success may mean the achievement of what one wants or intends, a high position in one's job, course, sport, in society, etc. some people believe that success is connected with the amount of money they earn, the house they live in and the car they drive. but is success really measured in dollars and is it just making money and being well-known? to my mind success means finding personal satisfaction in your work and loving what you do. it is a sense of personal accomplishment and self-satisfaction. if people want to be successful, they should have a goal to strive for and constantly raise the bar. when their ambition is reached, another one is created. the meaning of success may vary at different points of life.

of course not everybody manages to succeed in life. all successful businessmen, actors or musicians face a number of challenges at the beginning of their career. they have hard times overcoming many difficulties but they don't give up. at last their persistence leads to success. one must be hard-working, patient, strong-willed, persevering and self-confident if one wants to be successful. success always goes hand in hand with hard work and great efforts and very often one faces a lot of obstacles, troubles, disappointment and failure on the way to success.

some people forget about integrity and honour striving for success, wealth and glory. when they achieve their goal, it doesn't make them happy. on the contrary, they feel disillusioned and dissatisfied. having climbed the ladder of success they find nothing worthwhile on the top. a person shouldn't use any means and take any risks achieving success. many people today are under so much pressure to succeed that some admit they will lie, cheat, do something morally wrong and even sacrifice their private life and health if it helps them to get on. many ambitious people who want success at any cost move their families, friends and hobbies to the background. people who work too much trying to achieve their goals or to be promoted don't go in for sports, sit up very late, skip meals, smoke excessively and feel stressed.

but can a person be successful if he isn't happy? the link between happiness and success was investigated by a team from the university of california riverside. according to their research 'happiness, rather than working hard, is the key to success'. psychologists say that 'cheerful people are more likely to try new things and challenge themselves, which reinforces positive emotion and leads to success in work, good relationships and strong health'. so happiness is essential to people's wellbeing. prof diener said, 'we define success as obtaining the things that culture or society values, whether it be friends, close family, money and income, or longevity.'
