my definition of success is to be at a stable place in life where you are pursuing your dreams and making the best out of life

D McGee 3A
3/25/2024 11:53:31 am

i agree with Rainey because being able to be stable in this time of life is hard to do for some people and not so many people has the mind set or ambition to be able to want to push and put their self in great positions so they could stride for their dream.

J. RockwellI 3a

this some part of success not what success is

Sergio Morales link

Sergio Morales-3A-
Yup, there's more to it than this. This is just an outlook on what you would want as an individual. There are others that may become a part of your success.

Kinlaw E 3A
3/25/2024 01:32:48 pm

I agree that success it to be at a set place in life. Going after your dreams and accomplishing them is what success means. Making the best out of your life is what it means to be successful.

Contreras M 6B
3/28/2024 11:24:43 pm

I agree with fact that success is a set place in life. Having a place where you feel that you are the best version of yourself that you can be. However it won’t be easy and there’s a reason many people aren’t “successful”.

Camarillo M 3A
3/25/2024 02:00:34 pm

i completely agree because if you follow your dream and have dedication on your dream you are able to make your dream a success

George A 4A
3/25/2024 02:49:21 pm

I agree to be in a stable place in life is a lot of peoples version of success.

Diaz Z 1A

I some what agree, being stable and pursuing the dreams is everyone goal. But you have to be able to do that so ay you seceeded.

T Brooks 3A
3/27/2024 10:17:47 am

I agree because when you are living your dreams, you made it in life

B Jasso 3A
3/27/2024 01:59:57 pm

I agree with you, but to add, there's people that see success as having the job that they've always wanted, others see it as being able to have a good family, and more people see it as being in a part in life that they've always dreamed of.

Alynette Delgado 6B
3/28/2024 11:53:02 am

I agree with them because everyone should follow their dreams and be happy.

L. Speed 1A

I agree that you have to be stable in life to keep moving on with your dreams

A Hutton 1A
3/28/2024 02:06:22 pm

yea if your stable your happy so ig that’s successful

A Bradley 6B
3/28/2024 02:59:47 pm

I agree, because everyone needs to pursue their dreams and once they're following their dreams, they shouldn't even think about giving up even if they mess up many times or feel like they're too young or too old to pursue it.

D.Hurth 3a
3/28/2024 06:53:02 pm

I agree with Rainey because pursuing your dreams will more than likely bring success along with it.

Smith N 3a
3/28/2024 07:15:58 pm

I agree pursuing your dream is a form of success in and of itself

David M 1A

My Definition of success is never to look at your flaws as something that is bad but turning all your flaws in to your strengths in never looking at what happen in the past effect how your future turns out

N rainey 1a
3/25/2024 09:10:40 am

I agree because if you disregard your flaws you'll be more happy and I feel happiness is a form of success

Williams J 1A
3/25/2024 09:17:54 am

I agree with this because some people when they mess up they start to doubt theirselves

D.mims 1a
3/25/2024 09:29:03 am


I don't agree, with success you should be looking at your flaws and learning from them.

Camarillo M 3A
3/25/2024 01:57:13 pm

i agree because when you have your flaws, you can improve on them and see if you'll keep doing the same flaws or you can change it.

James L . 4A
3/25/2024 03:19:18 pm

I disagree I think that how you keep success but I don't think that is how you become successful in general

starr Kandice 1a
3/26/2024 11:43:11 am

I agree because you shouldn't focus on your flaws always focus on the bigger things and make the best out of everything for your future

Albiar X 1a
3/27/2024 09:53:27 am

I agree you can definitely be successful by working on your flaws and focusing on the present

K Jacinto 3A
3/27/2024 09:57:21 am

I agree turning your life around could be seen as success.

T Brooks 3A
3/27/2024 10:19:16 am

I agree because if you live in the past you will never see what's waiting for you in the future

B Jasso 3A
3/27/2024 02:02:14 pm

I agree with you, in order for people to succeed in life you're supposed to not worry about your past, because it's in the past for a reason, you should only look into your future, and set goals for yourself, so that when you achieve those goals, you'll be set in life or successful in life

J. Lira 1A
3/28/2024 10:49:27 am

I agree, we all have had different battles and those battles define who you are. You shouldn't see them as a bad thing instead it should be an experience in which you avoid to face.

Madi Snyder 6B
3/28/2024 11:04:44 am

I love that. I don't think people think about turning flaws to strength as success often. Most people just think its about money and the power they hold over people, but really success is anything you want it to be. I don't think success is going to truly have one definition.

Alynette Delgado 6B
3/28/2024 11:56:08 am

I agree because flaws can make us stronger or weaker and if we choose to become stronger then we will end up happy.

L. Speed 1A
3/28/2024 12:39:34 pm

I agree if you disregard your flaws you'll be where you wanna be in life

D Davis 6B
3/28/2024 02:43:45 pm

I agree, I don't think you can fully achieve success until you accept who you are, including your flaws.

A Bradley 4A
3/28/2024 02:53:42 pm

I agree, because when people mess up, they learn from their mistakes and try again. That's another reason why people succeed.

D.hurth 3a
3/28/2024 06:55:09 pm

I agree because if you look at your flaws as something that is apart of you instead of something that is wrong with you success will come easier.

A Giles 1A
3/29/2024 11:33:45 pm

and with that you are being successful in your own way with out thinking about the flaws you have into something that is good.

Williams J 1A
3/25/2024 09:16:57 am

My definition of success is that in order for you to get to that point you will have to struggle with a lot of hard work and you have to have a strong heart to get there.

Kinlaw E 3A
3/25/2024 01:30:38 pm

I agree that success is accomplishing something that you have worked hard for. Struggling and going through hardships is what helps define success since you got through it.

George A 4A
3/25/2024 02:48:25 pm

I agree with success there has to be some hardships that you will have to overcome in order to truly get to your success.

Starr Kandice 1a
3/26/2024 11:45:21 am

I agree because you are going to go through struggles before you succeed

K Jacinto 3A
3/27/2024 09:59:53 am

I agree with hard work because it will eventually pay off.

Sergio Morales link
3/27/2024 01:20:52 pm

Sergio Morales-3A-
What if a lot of that work is to just get to a point of despair? You don't specify what you are working for. I mean sure this way of thinking is sure to find you success, but to just get to a point, could be anything.

D Manuel 1a
3/27/2024 03:48:20 pm

I think if you let the work consume you it could lead to despair but life is all about balance. Have fun just as much as you work, prioritize your mental health.

L Vargas 1A
3/28/2024 09:20:58 am

I feel my life can limit my success how well It can't just be my health no there's more to it I just hope I don't let myself go without determining my path of success.

T Samuels 6b
3/27/2024 01:51:13 pm

I agree with you because if you want to be successful, you have to put in work and struggle a little.

D Manuel 1a
3/27/2024 03:47:02 pm

I agree with this, with hard work comes reward and success. You have to keep a strong body and mind to achieve it.

Contreras M 6b
3/28/2024 11:28:15 pm

The thing is some people don’t need to struggle there’s rich people who get things handed to them since birth. Yes many people need to work hard and struggle to be successful. However the rich are blessed with not having to worry about that so their mindset of success is different.

D. Mims 1a
3/25/2024 09:26:44 am

success to me is to over coming something that was hard or challenging for you, and to keep pushing forward.

N Rainey 1a
3/25/2024 09:38:03 am

I agree because when you over come challenges in life it puts you closer to what you are trying to achieve

D McGee 3A
3/25/2024 12:04:35 pm

I agree with Mims because if you really want something and want to achieve it or be successful you push through it no matter how had or challenging it is.

Camarillo M 3A
3/25/2024 02:04:21 pm

i agree cause if you push your obstacle you're able to succeed and overcome whatever comes your way.

James L 4A
3/25/2024 03:18:17 pm

I agree I think anything that you feel like you have over come something it is a form of success.

T Samuels 6B
3/27/2024 01:54:25 pm

I agree with you because in order to be successful you do have to hit a bump along the way and continue to push forward.

zaliah s 3a
3/27/2024 02:15:14 pm

i agree when you overcome something and keep going your mindset is strong you will always succeed with a strong mindset

D McGee 3A
3/25/2024 11:49:17 am

Society has quietly written a different definition of success, one where becoming successful means “having achieved fame, wealth, or social status”,but in my own words the definition of success is putting yourself or you family in position to where they could live with a limited amount of problems because we know problem are gonna come. Also growth is a big part of success.

Jaylon Wilson 1A
3/25/2024 02:43:26 pm

I agree because its all about the grind and hustle to reach your goals

C Valdez 1A
3/27/2024 10:00:11 am

I agree that problems are going to come and that being able to manage them well is part of success. I think being able to manage problems well is being successful because it means that you are able to manage stress as well and that you are confident. Being able to give you and your family a life that's comfortable is being successful because it's living how you want to..

zaliah s 3a
3/27/2024 02:17:29 pm

i agree people have the wrong image of being successful this new generation crazy work

C Nwachukwu 7B
4/13/2024 04:01:40 am

I agree society has definitely changed the narrative of what success is. Success should be defined as living the way you want after putting in the work.

Tyren D 4A
3/25/2024 11:49:46 am

I say success is the end product of failure,dissipointment,no,late night and everything else you get when trying to achieve a goal in life period.

J. RockwellI 3a
3/25/2024 12:18:33 pm

I feel bad for u

z.chambers 3a
3/25/2024 01:31:21 pm

true once you meet that point in life you have succeeded.

J. RockwellI 3a
3/25/2024 12:19:40 pm

when you don't see anyone in society for miles and nobody fucks with u because its just u

A Hutton 1a
3/28/2024 02:05:11 pm

hell yea that’s my shit right there

zaliah s 3a
3/25/2024 12:30:14 pm

I define success by being able to pursue whatever you want to do in life and being able to take care of you and everything around while doing what you love.

z.chambers 3a
3/25/2024 01:30:26 pm

I agree as long as you do what you want to do in life and take care of everything with being comfortable.

Jaylon Wilson 1A
3/25/2024 02:42:51 pm

I Agree because it's all about whatever you wanna do.

L Vargas 1A
3/28/2024 09:16:42 am

I can agree with your statement because success isn't just limited no success has many paths/purposes it just depends which path you take.

D Davis 6B
3/28/2024 02:45:03 pm

I agree, success is defined by you, and if you feel like you've achieved what you want, that can be considered success.

C cofield 3a
3/29/2024 09:59:27 pm

I agree with you on this point mainly because being In a place where you can do what you love and take care of your loved ones with no worries would be the end result of all the hardships u may have been through.

Kinlaw E 3A
3/25/2024 01:28:56 pm

I think success is when you can finally relax knowing that you are set in life and have done everything that you wanted to accomplish. Success also means that you accomplish what you set your mind to. Society usually defines success as a person with money. It is different for everyone.

Diaz Z 1A
3/27/2024 09:21:23 am

I agree once you can relax and not have a worry in the world you have succeded. If you can meet your goals then that's your individual goal you have met.

Albiar X 1a
3/27/2024 09:50:23 am

I agree I feel like success can be overshadowed with money

Shankle, A 1A
3/27/2024 10:32:20 am

Yes, I agreed about you can relax knowing that you are set in life and have done everything that you wanted to accomplish. That from working hard and what you get that you wanted in your own life.

Madi Snyder 6B
3/28/2024 11:00:37 am

I never thought of success as relaxing after completing a task. I think its a great way to think about it. I think success is mostly mental, society is always making it seem like you need power and money to be successful but really completing everyday tasks are also a form of success.

Smith N 3a
3/28/2024 07:22:20 pm

I agree. If you tell me that you’ve done everything your heart desired then I would say your pretty successful

C Nwachukwu 7B
4/13/2024 03:59:39 am

I agree that success is when you're finally free to relax and worry-free.

z.chambers 3a
3/25/2024 01:29:37 pm

I define success as depending on your individual values,beliefs, and goals and achieving them and being comfortable.

Camarillo M 3A
3/25/2024 01:55:35 pm

the key of being success is by working hard, and having some confident in your self because if you don't you'll have some obstacle, yeah life have a lot of obstacle but that's the point of life and being able to succeed. for example the obstacles you can have in life are, family, friends, relationships, and maybe some criticism problem, yeah it can be hard but, you'll be surprise how those problem can improve with your life and being able to successful

C Da Silva 1A
3/27/2024 09:36:16 am

I agree, you should not see struggles/obstacles as something that will stop you from achieving your goal. I think you should just use these obstacles as a learning experience and use them to be better.

J Deleon 6B
3/27/2024 09:47:39 am

Agreed because many people don't feel good about themselves because they don't do anything, going through and getting confident is a great way for you to be successful.For may people changing their personal lives is the best success.

Jaylon Wilson 1A
3/25/2024 02:35:05 pm

I define success as getting to a great point in life where your happy and you made it.

Lee, J 1A
3/27/2024 09:43:20 am

I agree that personal happiness and fulfillment are key aspects of success. A concise definition aligns with your perspective.

Stewart Z 4A
3/27/2024 03:37:31 pm

I agree because if your job makes you happy then maybe you ´ ll work hard for it.

Q Sanders 3A
3/27/2024 12:26:44 pm

I agree also because when you like what you're doing and have a stable income you yourself is being successful

Stewart Z 4A
3/27/2024 03:42:03 pm

I agree because everyone is not going to be at the same point in life so you should just accept where you are in your life and make the best of it.

Romello Groomes
3/25/2024 02:39:29 pm

Succes to me is like winning a game or feeling accomplished you did something you did good in

Parker N 7B
3/27/2024 12:20:11 pm

I disagree with your comment, success is achieving something not just winning. and you have to keep succeeding

C.lott 3A
3/28/2024 12:49:36 pm

I agree, Success is the achievement of goals desired outcomes, over coming ostacles and challeneges, making progress, and experiencing personal growh. It is subjective and varies among indivisuals. Success can vary from person to person

George Arellano 4A
3/25/2024 02:47:18 pm

Everyone has a different view of success with some people's being a small or short term goal and other people dreaming the biggest possible. For me success is defined as working hard towards something and putting your blood, sweat, and tears into it and having it pay off. What I mean by pay off is have it be able to fund your life and for you to be able to live a comfortable life for the rest of your life. I feel like this is what most people would classify as success being that everyone works and everyone wants to live a life that is comfrtable.

starr Kandice 1a
3/26/2024 11:49:12 am

Success is a goal that you create in life, everyone has a different view of success and what it means. It is hard working and going through challeges to reach success and not giving up on it because times got tough.

J Deleon 6B
3/27/2024 09:45:38 am

I agree you can feel successful though different things and different people, success can feel different between people and may be throughout objects and others relationships.

Smith N 3A
3/26/2024 12:43:40 pm

I define success as achieving the life goal that you've set for yourself. Now matter how big or small it is. My definition of success differs from societies definition because they only view you successful if you've obtained a substantial amount of fame or wealth.

C Da Silva 1A
3/27/2024 09:33:46 am

I agree, how big your goal is does not change that at the end of the day it might be an achievement to you. I also agree that success's is not necessarily related to wealth.

Parker N 7B
3/27/2024 09:55:40 am

I completely agree with what you said, success is different from everyone. Everyone has different goals.

Diaz Z 1A
3/27/2024 09:31:06 am

To be succes is meeting and completing your goals,, feeling happy with your accomplishment. It could be different for everyone , maybe finding your inner peace , or simple money wise. For me its both if I can find peace spiritually then I have succeed.

Jadian 7b
3/27/2024 10:31:53 am

I agree with this because it can involve reflecting on one's core values, identifying what truly matters to them, and then aligning their actions and choices accordingly. By doing so, individuals can find a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction that may not necessarily align with societal standards of success.

Q Sanders 3A
3/27/2024 12:25:04 pm

I agree also because everyone has their own life goals and then achieving it is them being successful

C Da Silva 1A
3/27/2024 09:32:31 am

The way I define success is that it means to have achieved everything you wanted to do in a certain period of time. Being successful means that you did everything you could to achieve your goals and now get to enjoy the results.

Lee,J 1A
3/27/2024 09:42:25 am

I define success as living an authentic life aligned with my values and making a positive impact. Society often equates success with wealth, status or power, but true fulfillment comes from within. While societal benchmarks can motivate, they shouldn't define your self-worth or override your personal journey.

J Deleob 6B
3/27/2024 09:42:42 am

Success to completing everything you want to do, feeling like you've earned your way to where you are at now. Success is feeling like you have no desires left and you are happy.

Albiar X 1A
3/27/2024 09:49:11 am

the way I define success is achieving all of your goals and dreams I feel like once you have done everything you needed to do you are sucessful

C Valdez 1A
3/27/2024 09:49:40 am

I think success means being able to live comfortably and doing what you want in life and completing your goals. I think being able to live and manage problems with minimal stress is also a part of it. Success is also being able to afford your wants and needs moderately and having a good pace towards completing goals and being happy with the progress you are making.

Jadian 7b
3/27/2024 10:30:10 am

I agree but success can also include factors like a high-paying job, a prestigious career, financial stability, or the accumulation of material wealth.

Parker N 7B
3/27/2024 09:50:39 am

I define success as achieving anything you set as a goal, and completing anything you choose to do. Without failure and perseverance.

T.Brooks
3/27/2024 10:22:56 am

My definition of success is when you've accomplished everything you dreamed of accomplishing.

Nox (Katelyn) Sears 8b
3/27/2024 01:03:10 pm

I agree, BIG DREAMS that you have accomplished means being successful.

Jadian 7b
3/27/2024 10:29:02 am

a personal definition of success may be more intrinsic, focusing on personal growth, relationships, and the pursuit of one's passions. This could include finding a career that is fulfilling and aligns with one's values, maintaining strong and meaningful connections with loved ones, or engaging in activities that bring a sense of purpose and well-being.

C, Ramirez 3A
3/29/2024 02:27:02 pm

I totally agree success has many meanings, from personal growth to stability. We are all have a different definition of success that is correct since it's our interpretation of success.

Shankle, A 1A
3/27/2024 10:29:40 am

What I know about success is something that you do good or bad of an undertaking.Form working on a test that you are trying to pass the test and you work so hard to study on the test and later on you did the test and pass it from your study's.

K Jacinto 3A
3/27/2024 12:03:23 pm

I define success and a reward of all your hard work. Its not easy to get so one has to work really hard everyday. Without complaining and not letting anything slow you down from you getting want you want.

Nox (Katelyn) Sears 8b
3/27/2024 01:02:12 pm

Success is like working hard towards a goal, so I agree.

Q Sanders 3A
3/27/2024 12:23:00 pm

I think success is when you achieve something you aimed for and your great at what you do in your career

Nox (Katelyn) Sears 8B
3/27/2024 01:00:58 pm

What's the definition of success? An accomplishment? To me it's a long term goal I finally finished. To me it's making myself happy. To me it's not about anyone else. Yes, it might go with the worlds definition of success, but what it means to me is so much for.

Sergio Morales link
3/27/2024 01:11:08 pm

I define success as what the definition specifies."The accomplishment of an aim or purpose." Maybe society's definition would be different....they might have expectations...or rules, but that doesn't really need to be the "highest bar". Success is stated, as purpose. Your purpose is not chosen for you, it's something you find for yourself.

I agree because For some, it means achieving a small goal or victory for the day. Others may view it positively impacting society, earning a college degree, or amassing wealth

Success to me is the achievement of one's goals, fulfillment, and overall well-being. In my opinion, it differs from society’s definition because society bases success off of wealth and status.

My definition of success is being able to have a stable/dream job, a happy family. There are people that think that success means having money, but other's see it as being able to have loved ones around you with all the things that you've accomplished.

I agree because Success is a term that means different things to different people. For some, success may mean reaching a certain level of financial stability or professional achievement. In contrast, for others, success may mean having a fulfilling personal life or positively impacting the world.

I think success have its ups and downs because success will not come easy you have to really work hard for what you want but I agree

I feel like you should work as hard as possible no matter what so you can reap the rewards. Why sit around wasting time when you can be putting in work to better yourself

I agree, becuase it emphasizes the importance of working hard and striving for success, as the effort put in now will lead to the future rewards. By staying dedicated and pushing oneself, possible, making hard work worth it in the end. Achieving goals and fulfilling dreams is possible.

As much as the concept of success is different for everyone, it's the same the accomplishment of one's purpose in life. So, if you've been stressing yourself and perhaps depressed because you haven't amassed a lot of material possessions like society has made us believe and feel like a failure, it's time to relax.

C.lott 3A

My definition would be success is achieving a desired goal or outcome.However, the definition of success can differ from person to person. Some indivisuals may define success based on material wealth,prestige, or accomplishments.

I agree if you can achieve your desired goal you can be successful .

L Vargas 1A
3/28/2024 09:08:40 am

My definition of success is that I don't consider failure because you can't just automatically say "I give up" or "I'm not even going to try" no for life doesn't just revolve on just having self determination no what you need is self confidence.

D Costilla 4A
3/29/2024 04:18:32 pm

I also think that if one wants to succeed in life, they cannot be someone who tends to give up easily. If one wants to be successful, they have to work for it, and if they get knocked down, be able to get back up and work hard. One has to have that drive and believe in themselves.

George Kessebeh
3/28/2024 09:47:36 am

what it takes to be successful is belief and manifestion in yourself and confidences . You have all 3 of those things you can be successful in life .

Madi Snyder 6B
3/28/2024 10:32:19 am

Success to me is when even in a situation that seems impossible to achieve as long as I don't give up immediately that is success to me. Most of the time when something seems to hard for me I don't even try I automatically fail, but trying, even if I don't get it right all the way is still success to me,

George Kessebeh

I agree once you overcome that obstical your successsful

J. Lira 1A
3/28/2024 10:47:02 am

I agree, you should always put in effort regardless of how difficult the situation seems. At the end of the day your effort should be more important than the obstacle you face.

C. Deane 6B

I agree, something that seems too hard, but you overcome adversity to achieve a goal.

This shit don't make sense

J. Lira 1A
3/28/2024 10:44:47 am

My definition of success is being aware of your challenges and still having the persistence to keep moving forward. Other people just expect their lives to be perfect but in reality everyone has their battles, and it's our job to look beyond that. At the end of the day you have that confidence to know that everything is going to be okay.

Alynette Delgado 6B

Success for me means that I have achieved my goal in life and I can chill knowing that I did everything right and I'm in a good place.But for some people success means being rich and popular in society and that is one way to look at it but success depends on the person and what they wanna achieved in life.

C. Deane 6B
3/28/2024 11:58:33 am

I agree with you saying that you can't be chill knowing that too much has gone right.

Johnson M 1A 2

It could also be a job or something related to family. Your goal could be anything that relates to you or others. You accomplish this thing and feel as though you did good, knowing you can wait until there’s more.

C. Deane 6B
3/28/2024 11:57:04 am

My definition of success is, having a comfortable amount of money a good family of my own, and have no worries in life.

L. Speed 1A
3/28/2024 12:35:49 pm

my definition of success is being where I wanna be in life and being stable to take care of the people I love.

D Costila 4A
3/29/2024 04:08:00 pm

I see it the same way. Success to me also means being financially stable enough to take care of my loved ones. Most importantly to my parents, I hope to give back everything that they gave me, overall, taking care of them in the near future.

Rockwell J 3a
3/28/2024 02:02:30 pm

I think success is being happy and to enjoy having a good life with the people you love

A Hutton 1A

i would say success depends on if i’m happy if i am that’s successful. idk how society sees it.

Johnson M 1A 2
3/28/2024 03:19:58 pm

Success could be happiness. It is something that you want or need. It could be personal or none personal.

M Roberson 8B
3/29/2024 11:32:44 pm

I agree with what you said. I liked how you worded it. I think people's definition of success can differ.

D Davis 6B
3/28/2024 02:46:40 pm

To me success is reaching your full potential as a person. Whenever you reach that point, it can help aid you to complete the goals you want.

Johnson M 1A 2
3/28/2024 03:18:27 pm

Success is something that takes discipline and dedication to achieve. You must go through things to get the outcome you want. This does sort of differ to how society views it, bit over all the same definition.

Brown R. 8B
3/28/2024 10:54:02 pm

You for sure have to go through several trials and tribulations in order to achieve success. You also have to learn and grow a lot so I see where you’re coming from.

D.Hurth
3/28/2024 06:50:28 pm

To me success means being stable in something you love doing and not living paycheck to paycheck. And you can live your life how you want.

Brown R. 8B
3/28/2024 10:52:48 pm

I definitely see your point of view. If you’re constantly struggle with your position in life, honestly you’re not successful. At the moment. You can always change that or course but it will take time and effort.

A Bethany 7b
3/29/2024 11:00:27 am

I dont agree, i feel like success is more of an accomplishment than a a stability.

C, Ramirez 3A
3/29/2024 02:02:10 pm

I also think that being stable is a success since many people aren't stable, whether that is financially or relationship wise. Being successful doesn't necessarily mean the accomplishments you made in your life, but more living your life without worry. Being stable is the biggest accomplishment for success.

Brown R. 8B
3/28/2024 10:51:01 pm

Success is when you’ve made it at a point in your life when you’re at your happiest and always seeing continuous growth. To society success is different, especially depending on the person.

Contreras M 6b
3/28/2024 11:34:20 pm

To me success is being the best version of yourself that you can be. I say this because everyone has different priorities. Some people may be to settle down and have a family, others to be filthy rich, the most educated, have your name remembered, or to be the most attractive.

A Bethany 7b
3/29/2024 10:59:51 am

I agree success doesn’t even have to be materialistic it could be having a family or even getting into a college.

A. Green 8b
3/29/2024 11:36:00 pm

In life you are always working to be a better version of yourself. However, I do not agree that being the most educated is something to stigmatize. Becoming more educated is working to improve yourself.

A Bethany 7B
3/29/2024 10:59:13 am

Success to me is self accomplishment. When you plan on doing something and you go through with it, that is success. I would say my definition of success is different from society's definition because everyone feels like success is money.

C Cofield 3a
3/29/2024 10:26:23 pm

I one hundred percent agree with this comment because nowadays many would hear the word success and think of money and fame.

D Cruz 3A
3/29/2024 10:39:23 pm

I agree with every word. Even though money plays a big part in what people believe is successful, it’s not the only part. Success is what a person completes and accomplishes for themself, not others.

A. Green 8B
3/29/2024 11:30:38 pm

I agree with your part about self accomplishment, I would be happy if I finished my life having accomplished all of my goals. Everyone is so wrapped up in money and forget to enjoy the smaller things in life. Success isn’t just about the amount of objects you can own.

C, Ramirez 3A
3/29/2024 01:43:27 pm

My definition of success is being both monetarily well off and to have a success full work life balance. In most cases, especially within the United States, my definition aligns pretty clearly with the countries definition of success. Success cam be defined by a number of factors but in this economy, being financially stable is priority.

D Costilla 4A
3/29/2024 04:03:50 pm

I define success as getting to a point in life where one has the stability that they've always looked for, and that are happy with themselves. In my opinion, I think success requires one to have worked hard and who has made sacrifices along the way. Overall, just being happy with the financial stability in your life.

D Cruz 3A
3/29/2024 10:33:45 pm

I agree. Being successful is about yourself and what you want. Not what everyone else labels as success. I also believe that stability and happiness is what success consists of.

C Cofield 3a
3/29/2024 10:22:33 pm

I would have to say success could be defined many diff ways for many different people. Success could be peace for one person and chaos for the next it all depends on a persons goals and morals.

M Roberson 8B
3/29/2024 11:31:45 pm

I agree with what you said. I liked how you explained it. I never really thought of it that way.

D Cruz 3A
3/29/2024 10:31:29 pm

I define success as accomplishing your personal goals, plans, and beliefs. Working hard enough to complete your life and yourself. Even though having money is a big part of success when people mention or think about it, being successful doesn’t always have to mean just being rich.

A Giles 1A
3/29/2024 11:30:33 pm

Exactly even though a lot of things that you can be successful in has money involved does not mean you have to have it in order to be successful in other areas of life.

A. Green 8b
3/29/2024 11:25:43 pm

When society thinks of success, they think of celebrities and rich businessmen. To me, success is completing all of your life goals. I would consider myself successful if I complete what I am working towards at the moment

A Giles 1A
3/29/2024 11:29:28 pm

For me Success means doing what you want to do and achieving what you wanted in life. Success in society means you blowing up on social media and having money and being rich if that makes sense. Even being happy can be successful.

M Roberson 8B
3/29/2024 11:30:12 pm

I personally feel like there's so many ways to define success. I feel like most importantly you should be the one to deem what success is. Everyone got their own version of success. Society might see success as anything.

C Nwachukwu 7B

To me, success is freedom whether it's financially or spiritually. In today's society, success is defined as getting to the top or doing what is expected of you.
