Successful life

Has anyone lived a happy successful life and is happy with there lives? Or has there illness held them back too much?

I’m still struggling with the idea of what success should look like. I often slip into self loathing and thoughts of failure. But lately, I’ve been getting better at being my own best friend. This is called self-compassion.

I do know that comparing ourselves to other is a sure way to make us miserable. I hear a lot of negative voices, so I wouldn’t say I’m happy, but I do consider myself an optimist most of the time. I’m good at many of my hobbies. I wish my health were better and I’m working on exercise and eating better.
