  1. There’s no such thing as success
    There’s no such thing as failure
    My goal is to be a good failure
    Then I will succeed
    Goodnight.

    -Hok and Javier

  2. Who will enjoy the success of quitting? Sadly, not the two of them. Though, with time, they will.

    What terrific times the two of them shared. But no longer. And, although it will be EXTREMELY UNPLEASANT to carry on, all will never be lost.

    For the feelings will never go away. Ever. Just not acted upon.

  3. Success. she was never successful. At least not in keeping people close to her. They always left eventually. And there she sat. All alone. And unsuccessful at life. Failing miserably.

  5. success means that you haven’t failed. you have done something useful, something to be proud of and something that works. people dont have to like it, but it came out the way you wanted it to and thats all that mattered. people will be proud of you. you should be proud of yourself, its something tara says!

  6. success doesnt lie with the medal around your neck.
    it lies with the hard work, the dedication.
    the effort.
    success isnt defined by the recognition that you receive.
    its the experience of it all.
    the things that you take away.
    the friends youve made.
    and the lessons that youve learned.
    Success defines who you are
    but not with accomplishment.
    Success is the character that you uphold.
    It is ultimately who you become after it is all over.

  7. Marie pondered her next move. She had all the money fame and glory she needed. Her whole life had been a huge success until the last few weeks. She never lifted a finger, and now she was sitting in a jail sell with an over tatooed roomate who smelled of things not to be mentioned. It was her absolute nigtmare.

  8. Success is getting a good grade on a hard math quiz,
    the way your parents are so proud you did it. Dont question it, just say “yes”.
    Success is making a new friend when you are the new one,
    that one moment when you think your life has ended, and someone’s there for you.

    Success is learning to ride a bike with no outside help to keep you up,
    therly accomplished feeling you get after riding a few even if you crash. a few more times.
    Success is graduation from Middle School into High School,
    the way we mature in that time period is a success in itself.

    Success is getting the guts to ask out the person you’ve crushed on since 3rd grade,
    the wonderful feeling of butterflies fluttering around in your chest when they say “yes”.
    Success is taking the interview of your first job during high school,
    the rush of not knowing, and when you get it..what an accomplishment.

    Success is getting over your nervous feelings, and asking your lover to marry you,
    all the stress in the world on your shoulders…is worth that one little “yes”.
    Success is growing old and happy with the one you truly love most,
    if you aren’t happy by the time you grow old..was your life really a success?

  9. Success is that little golden opportunity you get to feel good about something you’ve accomplished. It’s brilliant and glorious and a feeling like no other. Don’t like success go to waste. Success breeds evolution.

  11. Nothing succeeds like success

  12. Success

    Nothing succeeds like success.
    Always live your life to the fullest!

  13. I always worry that I won’t be a success; it seems like it’s the most important thing in the world to me. I want to go a fantastic college and be uber happy. I’m not always though, it seems to ruin me.

  14. Success in being social. Today I socialized with seven people– a record for me. I usually keep to myself, but today I talked to seven people and nothing bad happened. This, this is my small success of the day.

  15. Success is something i count as when your life has been lived. When you look back at the children you have raised, the job you loved so much and the opportunities you had to make all of this happen. It’s when something so little but so important has been created.

  17. owning my own dance studio where i will be able to teach and inspire young children, and even adults. i would inspire them and teach them how to dance from their heart and soul.

  18. success is over rated. a contraption by society designed in order to push us towards a certain goal they believe is worth attaining.

    work towards your own successes. your own goals and dreams.

  19. Success.

    The first thing that comes to mind is a camp cheer. I won’t write it out because it would take up the whole 60 seconds.

    I also think of “How to succeed in business….” (a musical.)

    I think of success in businesses and life.

    I think of people shouting “SUCCESS!!”

    I feel like I have NOT been very successful writing something creative on this word today :P

  20. Success. Crazy. Insane. Never accomplishable. I’ve always heard this. But I want to be a success story. I want to be the girl that people look up to for making it out alive. This world can eat people eat, spit them out, and take them up again.

  21. Success? It’s smells sweet when you get there, but smells like shit the entire way up? Yet for some reason we all indulge and plunge ourselves into this shit smell climb upward to smell the not so shit mountain of success and breathe awesome clean air.

  22. you can acheive, reach for the stars. its what you want. suceed means to get it right! you can do it, belive in yourself. win, score the goal, get a standing ovation.

  23. Success isn’t something that people can help you get to… not real success anyways. I have to come up with everything on my own to get to where I’m going. I hope… I know someday that even without the seemingly needed help of others, that I can hopefully make it somewhere. Anywhere. I hate high school so fucking much.

  24. unsure what that means…loads of ppl say that success is in wealth .. i think its more of an intimate thing like mental, emotional, spiritual success that im after. the most successful thing i would have to conquer is loving myself more and others!

  25. “I did it! I won!” Tears streamed down my face. I was screaming. The golden trophy glittered in my sweaty grip.

  26. Success flows forth from drive and motivation. Success comes from a place deep within and can’t really be altered by outside forces. Your measurement of it is the only one that matters. The outside world will try to tell you differently, but they’re wrong. It’s all about you and what your success is.

  27. try your hardest at life, succeed until you fail because failure is the ultimate learning experience. do big things with your life, don’t be afraid to jump out of your comfort zone and to try something new. you are your own person don’t ever let anyone tell you who to be. reach for the stars–go big or go home!

  28. It’s what drives us, it’s what keeps us going when all other hope is gone. It’s what we hold onto, what we remember, what we relive, what we strive for. It can be measured in many ways, but only you can tell when you’ve achieved it.

  29. Is the product of genetics, envoronment, choice and divine providence.
    It is multi-factorial not a result of simple causation.
    Success is fascinating to discuss and a controversial topic
    Most want success but are conflicted.
    People give up what they want for what they want at the moment.

  30. Success. It’s that thing everyone’s chasing. Everyone wants to have it. But no one really knows what it is. Do you have to have some amazing job and an expensive car to be successful? Do you have to be having sex with a different person, whenever you feel the desire to? But both of those are wrong. Success is not something that can be measured in what you have. Our judgement has become perverted. Success should be measured in the amount of good you do and the number of people you touch.

  31. to do well in life. consider others and reach for the stars. consider the endless possibilities of the world. never give up. keep trying until you fail because failure is the ultimate learning experience. try hard or go home. dont give up on life

  32. success is not getting something you don’t want, even if you deserve it….

    by gene betz on 04.04.2011
  33. its defined as you being able to do what you want in life. make a living out of it and not have to worry. success is several things. happiness. love. hope. togetherness. success is something everyone wants, but not everyone can achieve. its hard to be happy, but its not hard to try. in order to be successful in life, you have to try. try to be what you want to be, what you deserve to be.

  34. this is not something i desire inherently, just in terms of my own value and worth as a human being to myself. i want to help and be successful at it. success on its own is a strange concept like money with nothing to spend it on.

  35. I’d wondered what I was doing ever since I started doing it. But I was. And the surprising thing is, I was doing it well. I’d never felt this rush of accomplishment before, like I could do anything. I just moved along, painting what I felt, making a piece of art.

  36. “Well,” she said, “What’s your passion?”
    “I like eyes?” you shrugged. you said you wanted to be an optometrist.
    but I shook my head. I said you only like money.

  37. winning. being the person you have always wanted to be and acheiving the goals you set for yourself. being a good person to others and being happy, healthy, and having loving friends and family. love life. take pride in what you do. be happy!

  38. he thing i want.its one of the most desirable things in life.everyone wants success in something(work,love,gambling,school etc.)

  39. Success is about failure, in my opinion. Without failure where would we be – certainly not successful. Wasn’t it Edison who said that he didn’t fail 99 times, he just found 99 ways not to make a lightbulb. I think success is about failing, learning the lesson and then persevering after you pick yourself up from it.

  40. seven letters, big meaning. accomplishing what you wanted all along. being happy with it, bigger than happy, though. proud. a feeling that you might actually have someone appreciating you for once. i feel like i should have more but time is running ou
