What I found most interesting about this was the the concept of success changed over time. Success seems to be deeply personal and is perhaps a reflection of a deeply personal fear.
In our society the fear of not having enough money seems to be very prevalent thus often success is tied directly to the concept of having enough money because it is a fear a lot of people share.
In this light perhaps the path to success is just a way of working through our fears.
The interesting question then becomes what does success look like to the person who no longer has any fears. Perhaps then success is motivated by compassion?
