Question: Why certain people succeed in life!? also, those who succeed most of the time are not Ph!.d's!?
I have discussed about it in my blog www!.propelyourself!.blogspot!.com/2008/04/!.!.!. But, I seek your clarifications!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Of course, success must be defined!. If I'm happy with myself, I think I am a success, and that's really all that matters, isn't it!?

But beyond that, I think people who travel down their own road are usually succesful!. College degrees are limiting, in my opinion ( btw, I have a PhD)!. You perservere to get your degree, which demonstrates an admirable quality, but to be successful, you need to satisfy your own requirements, not someone else's!.

It seems to me that be succesful, you first have to know what you want, and that is a problem for some people!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

First you must ask yourself how do they succeed for I know many people who succeed in life but have no house no family and no money!. Whether you succeed in life is up to you how is some one supposed to tell you succeeded when they judge you by their success!? Success only comes from know that you have accomplished what you have set out to do!.

There are some Ph!.D's that end up in jail, homeless, or even died!. A piece of paper does not guarantee anything!.

And what is success!? Success is not success until you're old and look back and think your successful!. Successful people end up failing all the time!.

You want to succeed!? Look into the Green Business field!. That's what the future is forced to go into!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Of course in some cases it is simply blind luck!. But in the majority of instances, those who would define their own life as "successful" share two qualities: 1!.They understand and embrace the concept of contentment!. 2!. They never look back!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

it really depends on what you consider succeeding!. i mean for some people just working at mcdonalds and having a job is succeeding!. for some it is just being happy!.

and for some it is being either rich or something like that!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Depends on how you measure 'success'!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
