How do you view success?

I offer this video as something to get you thinking about what would make you feel like a success… Alain de Botton also has some great one liners:
“A snob is anybody who takes a small part of you and uses that to come to a complete vision of who you are…”
“The next time you see someone driving a Ferrari, don’t think of them as someone who’s greedy – but think of them as someone who’s incredibly vulnerable and in need of love.”
Here’s the question I’m pondering… How would we define success if we really believed we were sinners saved by grace?

We really need to rethink our ideas of success
