The word 'successful person'—what did they succeed at?

Perhaps those who know where they are and where they are heading are the ones whose lives are truly 'succeeding' in the real sense.

I don't like the term 'successful person' itself, as it feels capitalistic.
In society, people who have acquired money, status, or fame are often called successful.
However, my definition is different.

Life is not about comparison or competition with others, but about the joy of knowing that you yourself have grown even a little bit more than yesterday.

That is why I want to accumulate 'growth' rather than aim for 'success'.

A person's value is determined not by what they have taken, but by how much they have refined themselves and how much of a positive impact they have had on others and society.

There is no end to growth.
That is why I want to continue being someone who 'masters their craft'💡

And whether that person's life itself was a success
will likely be determined by whether they remain in the memories of others when the coffin is closed.
At that point, the person themselves will have no way of knowing.
