What is true success?

Hi there [이름]!

How are you doing there? I am excited to talk to you tomorrow. And oh, thanks for writing this.

See you!

~Teacher Shanee^^,

I once used to think about success seriously.

>>> Correct!

Because I wanted to succeed my life like everyone else, too, I planned my life tightly and tried hard to reach to the goal as soon as possible.

I always checked if I was on the right way to succeed but it didn\'t come to me easily.

I was getting tired chasing success and even didn\'t know when I was happy last time.

Then one day, I suddenly thought how I looked like a fool.

>>> Correct!

I seemed ridiculous only to follow the bright future every single day even though I wasn\'t happy at all at that moment.

How can a person who cannot feel happy in the present be happy in its future just because it has success.

Why do I have to wait until the success comes to me and put up with hardships for later happiness?

>>> Correct!

I stopped chasing success and chose to live my present life taking all the fun out of life.

>>> Correct!

Honestly, I\'m still confused what\'s more important in the future or in the present but I can say for certain sure that only success doesn\'t bring me happiness.

On the way to success, if you feel happy, I think you are the one who already get success.

>>> OR: While on the process of chasing success, if you feel happy, I think you are the one who get successful.
