Success is interpreted in various ways., depending upon the individual and the circumstance. To others, success mean an exciting life style, like a good career, lots of money or earning a PhD etc . To others, success means peace of mind, self-confidence, social responsibility etc.

Generally when we say a person is successful we mean that he had made to a certain level of affluence and social prominence. The definition fits perfectly well if you take a look around here in hubpages. Some hubbers are very successful according to our definition here.

Between 1832 and 1860, a gentlemen lost his job, failed in business, was defeated and then later elected to the legislature, lost his sweet heart and had a nervous break down; was defeated in the nomination to congress, but was elected later, was defeated for senate and nomination for Vice-President, but was finally elected President of the US in 1860.

He is Abraham Lincoln.

I am sure many will easily relate to me here. After being here for 6 weeks, I have discovered that four types of people sign up for hub page;

1. Those who sign up to write and earn money

2. Those who sign up to for the pleasure in publishing their own work (don't bother about earnings)

3. Those that sign for both earnings and pleasure in their publications

4. The final category of people that sign up are unscrupulous participant who sign up just to be nuisance to to other hubbers in the hubbing community

To me I easily fit into category 3. "Those that sign for both earnings and pleasure in their publications"

There you have it. Quit frankly, I am here to earn few bucks and also enjoy publishing my own work.
