A while ago, I came to the conclusion that our society tends to push the idea of "success" to an extreme point, at which I am uncomfortable. Since then, I have changed the metric for myself from success to happiness. I consider my job as a parent to be to teach my children how to measure happiness and to tell them everything I know about what makes people happy and unhappy. I also think it is important to foster experience in activities which could lead to more opportunities for happiness.
