Off topic what do you think makes a man successful

What defines being successful??

What do you guys think

Serious question and off topic but I have some things to be proud of but would like to hear what you guys think

not being here for starters 

His Family, of course.

His plays 

Not gambling on a bunch of overpayed dickheads who otherwise could not give one shit about our wager outcomes!! Sports gambling has chewed me up and spit me out over the years!! Once you lose control of your bankroll you will lose! 

His direction, his soul, his aura, and how he can pay it forward

Bling Bling

@Michigan_D

 All of which things you can lose because of this shit. I started sports gambling as a hobby and over the years it has taken over. Even in my wins the satisfaction isn¡¯t there. At this point it is only an addiction that I can¡¯t break¡­ I lose games I wager and win games I don¡¯t. It has become a complete mind fuck that ultimately is controlled by the entities involved in the sport. Wish I can just break away!

Everything in moderation

Food, alcohol, etc., etc. I could go on. Manage, don¡¯t be managed

Set mindful goals, make it a lifestyle

I¡¯m sorry you went through hard times, better things to come hopefully for you

 Damn pistol listen to yourself

 Time to put it down....put gambling to rest

 Find a hobby or work more

 Save dogs or something like it with meaning and turn off the sports

@pistol23

 I got to do the same with Horse Racing. I'm with you. Hit a few nice pick 4's and just missed a couple of big paydays but overall it's f'd me over. Dumbest sport to bet on to make money. It should be only for the occasional Saturday or Sunday. 

 I'm with you man. I got to stop chasing...

@TommyC22

I do a lot of those things I¡¯m an avid weightlifter and tradesman. Have a great family and stay busy mostly. It¡¯s tough.. the highs I¡¯ve experienced from this crap can¡¯t even compare to the lows!! For instance today I lost 3 wagers that could¡¯ve totaled over 6k. Two by .5 point each in NBA and one by one run in MLB. Then due to those mishaps I cashed out a wager in MLB that eventually won and wouldve kept me in the positive for the day. It¡¯s too many days like this that are just a gut punch!! I know it¡¯s a roller coaster ride but I think it¡¯s time to get away and stay away

Correct spelling.

Attitude determines Altitude and Luck is the residue of design.  

Doing 2 chicks at once

Living to 100 and surrounded by young beautiful women 

I thought your well groomed landing strip screamed successful 

Being more successful than your parents and your kids being more successful than you. 

Surprised nobody mentioned money 

@maxwagers781

Im pretty sure bling bling was what Tommy meant

@maxwagers781

 That was what George Burns did until 1996

 The guy with the cigar had ladies all over him. He always dated younger because he never found anyone his age to go out with. 

If there isn¡¯t any kind of afterlife, I would say it doesn¡¯t make a bit of difference 

My dad told me this a long time ago. 

Success is measured by a man¡¯s own terms. No one can tell someone they are not successful. There are many aspects to life and most of the time they all are not clicking at once, but when they do, one feels like they are successful.
