Measure of Success
Just now a senior requested the details of "Success Stories" of our alma mater. Our school started its operations in 1974 (incidentally the year students of my batch were born) and the guys from Batch 1 are at the age of 55, easily at the peak of their careers.
A whole lot of names were produced, all leaders in their respective fields: neurosurgeons, CEOs, Vice Chancellors, Professors, Directors and what have yous. Makes me look at my 'achievements' and be humbled in comparison.
How do I measure success? Right now I am far from it. Getting there (I guess). What defines success? How does a person know if he is successful? When he feels happy with what he has done and is at peace with himself. I would probably be looking for that equilibrium if ever I have to define success.
