“While good grades and a well-paying job should be strived for, they don’t define success. For me, being happy with yourself and your surroundings adds more to achievement than anything else. I’ve been deemed successful on account of my academic accomplishments. That view, however, has completely disregarded the personal discomfort I’ve felt throughout my life because the education system attributes numbers with prosperity. I hope that one day people will take more qualities into consideration when defining success.”<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
