We humans are different. Over the generations, we have evolved. We have food in abundance. We are dying less from diseases like cholera, measles, and pox. Our meaning of success also changed. It is not just about being wealthy or checking out the wishlist.
As we grow old, our priorities change. We tend to focus more on our inner self rather than externalities. For someone in their 20s, the importance of Instagram likes or attending a rock concert is more meaningful than it was in the 1980s.
Our aspirations, imagination, and hard work take us closer to what success means. At the same time, we have to be thankful for our upbringing and the opportunities we were handed in our platter.
