<p>Happy New Year! ...first of all.</p>
<p>I know that some cultures set a definition of successful. In American culture, we believe American Dream. How about you, as an individual?</p>
<p>Having no financial worries and enough $ to have fun.</p>
<p>Progress. Being to look back about see how much progress I’ve made and feel good about the way I made the progress.
Being able to effectively deflect all negative stereotypes from the moment I open my mouth.
Acheivement. Lots of achievement.</p>
<p>If I can do what I want to do, I am successful. Now, there’s still a long way from my success. I need to go to college, work hard, and advance in workplace. Money is important, but become what I want to be is most important.</p>
<p>Being self-aware and doing what one thinks it’s best regardless of what others/society deems is right.</p>
<p>I am tired of aiming for power, prestige, money, and romance when those things will still leave me empty inside looking for some higher purpose in life so in a way I dont really believe in the American Dream anymore.</p>
<p>Now, Im focusing on understanding and transforming myself so I will no longer be a sychopant of an immoral society but a free thinker who can decide whats best for myself and my life so I can finally live a truly successful life :)</p>
