A comment on Conversation: Wealth and power have been our conventional measures of success. What definition will better sustain us now and how can we move into it?

Jun 6 2011: My personal definition of whether or not I have been successful in a day is to think about whether or not I have impacted someone's life in a positive way. Every evening I think about this and if I have not I try to think of ways to change what I did that day so I don't make the same mistake.

From another source though, Chris Rock said "Being rich is not about having money; it's about having options." This could just as easily be about success rather than riches.
