To me that is success... Because I know those are the things that will make me happy
And nearly all those things have one primary element in common....

Currency.

So in the end success is measured, at some level, by currency. Maybe it's not "money" but it is something you can do/make/exchange for something else, and in the end that is all money is, a mechanism of trade.

It's a nice thought that Success should be defined by some other measurement, but it's all intertwined at some level.
