Success is a word that we aspire to embody. Western culture often associates it with achievements, realised dreams, wealth or fame. But success is generally in the eye of the beholder. Our own markers of success may be very different from those looking at our lives from the outside, and who knows what’s happening behind the mask of a seemingly successful person.
