Success is what everyone is yearning for but hard to get. In my opinion, success is what we should try hard to achieve but not what we should live for.
Some of us have tried every means to get it, even to make advantage of their intimate people to achieve success. What makes it happen is that these people are too much into success and maybe the only thing they care about is success, but they unfortunately forget about what they truly live for. Indeed, success is an honor, a symbol of being good at what we have done, a symbol of self-realization, even a symbol of high-level social status. But it cannot be our lives. We should not merely concentrate on whether we are successful or not, but pay more attention to what we have learnt during the journey to success. The blossom of flowers is beautiful indeed, but the process that a seed grows up into a beautiful flower is more valuable. This is a truth that too many people had ignored.
However, that we shouldn’t pay all attention to success doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t care about it; instead, we should try to live a successful life. That means we should try to achieve success but not merely care about result. We should be reasonable to deal with success. After all, success can bring us a sense of acceptance.
To sum up, success, if properly treated, is a good thing to us. But if not, it may makes us puzzled about what we truly live for. Thus, we should treat success rationally and live our lives not only for success but for themselves.
