Many people believe that a large income equals success. I believe, however, that success is morethan how much money you make. Some of those measures of success include fame, respect,and knowledge.
Most people assume that famous people are rich people, but that isn’t always true. Forexample, some day I would like to be a famous researcher. Few scientists are rich by today’sstandards. Still I will feel myself to be successful if I am well-known. Additionally, there are manyfamous humanitarians who are not rich. Mother Theresa was one. Certainly, no one would sayshe was not successful.
I also believe that being respected by coworkers indicates success. Without that respect,money means little. For example, I once did some work for a top attorney in a law firm. Hemade a very good salary, but he wasn’t a nice man. No one ever did work for him willingly. Heorderd everyone around, and we didn’t respect him. In contrast, however, I had a wonderfulband director in high school. He had to take extra jobs just to make enough money tosupport his family. However, his students had great respect for him and always listened to whathe said. As a result, we were a very good band. In my opinion, my band director was moresuccessful than the attorney was.
Finally, I think one of the most important indicators of success is knowledge. Wealthy peopledon’t know all the answers. For example, in the movie Good Will Hunting, the only person whocould solve some complex problems was the janitor. He knew a lot, and decided what hewanted to do with that knowledge rather than just think about money. In my opinion, he wasextremely successful.
When we think of history, there are few people that we remember simply because they wererich. Overall, we remember people who did something with their lives - they were influential inpolitics, or contributed to science or art or religion. If history is the ultimate judge of success,then money surely isn’t everything.
