I think success is about purpose. People ask about success at different points in your life. As I look back, I think people that are successful feel good about what they are doing, and they can look back at what they've done and they feel good about it.

Am I proud of myself? Whatever purpose there is in life, I think success is about purpose. It's not about material things.
