你對成功的定義為何？
成功為何並沒有標準答案，端看個人對成功的定義。有人認為生活快樂就是成功，而有人認為功成名就才算成功。回答時可視自身情況，或思考自己向來注重生活的哪一部分或層面，來構思回答。
I think my individual success depends on if I can achieve important personal goals.我認為我個人的成功與否，端視自己是否能達成自己所設的重要目標而定。
I do think that individual success mainly depends on whether a person can achieve important personal goals. I mean success is like a competition with ourselves rather than with something external, such as status and wealth. For example, my mother is a homemaker. It's not a highstatus job, and she didn't earn a lot of money, but she feels satisfied, and thinks she is successful. She always says that her goals are to take good care of the family, so I think it is her dedication to the family that gives her a sense of success.我深信個人成功與否端視其是否達成自己所設的重要目標而定。我意思是說，成功就是自己跟自己的比賽，而不是跟一些諸如地位、財富等外在條件相較來論定。比方說，我母親是一位家庭主婦，這個工作並沒有很高的社會地位，她也沒賺很多錢，但是她感到很滿足，也認為自己很成功。她總是說她的目標就是要照顧好整個家。因此，我認為就是這種為家庭奉獻的心讓她有成就感。
