Friend from my previous job asked this question: “What does success mean to You"?

One of the answers that I remember he got was:

“Get “brand recognition" of my name, and get a job with monthly salary of 40,000 PLN."

(I'm not sure if “brand recognition" is correct phrase – I mean that he wanted his name/person to be well known among people working in the same area as he is.

40,000 PLN – to give some perspective, is a bit over 10% of value of new Jaguar XK convertible (not XKR).

I would like to ask You, to tell me what does “success" mean to You. What would You have to achieve to feel successful.
