According to the Roman Emperor , these are the five traits of every successful person:

  1. Consciousness of an honest purpose of life
  2. A just estimate of oneself and everyone else
  3. Frequent self-examinations
  4. Steady obedience to what one knows to be right
  5. Indifference to what others may think or say

These traits don’t try and tell you what success looks like. Success means different things to different people: being able to look after their family, having a comfortable balance in the bank, giving back to their community, etc.

Even these definitions are widely subjective.

However you define success, the above traits can carry you to the achievement of your success.
