Defining Success: The Definition Of Success

“The ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”- Steve Jobs. How would you describe success? Success is defined vividly by many people. Success is typically defined as being wealthy, having a mansion, and being famous. Success is not defined by fame, money, having nice clothes, that is what success has evolved to be kind of like the “American Dream” it has evolved to making money without having to work which is wrong.
