Success, Lecture 3, 21.09.2026

What is success for you? Today we faced this question, and when you start thinking about it, it's not easy to answer.

We had a lot of criteria and definitions for it, and we had to answer some questions. In my opinion, success goes hand in hand with happiness.

But to be successful, you have to act or do something, and this can lead to a successful action or situation. When you do what you love or like, then you have fun, and this leads to happiness.

Another part, for me, is the famous saying: "You are alone at the top."

So be mentally prepared for that as well, especially once you have reached a successful state.

For me, success is not only money or a good job. It is also feeling good about my life and the things I do every day.

Right now I am studying abroad in Barcelona, and this is a big step for me. I try to learn new things and to go out of my comfort zone. For me, this is already a small success.

Maybe success is different for every person, and it can also change over time. So I think it is important to ask yourself from time to time: What do I really want?
