True success, true happiness lies in freedom and fulfillment.

Success is always something completely different to people. I feel like I've succeeded, if I'm doing something that makes me happy and I'm not lying to anybody.

These are the things that bring true happiness. As a culture, I think we need to redefine what it means to be happy.
