Success in this world is relative. What means everything to you may mean nothing to me.

Agree with this part. The day I graduated, everyone was happy. However, deep down, I was feeling empty inside. Praise be to God, by His permission, my degree/education has been helpful in getting through this life, but I no longer allow anyone else to script my life for me. This is one of the reasons I embarked into the journey of self help. I have not been a 100% success, and definitely I am not where I envision myself, but this life of trial and error feels more fulfilling than being on a trajectory defined by someone else and following it like a sheep.
