How do you measure success? - GoFuckYourself.com

p00p · 05-03-2003, 08:45 AM

I am talking in the adult industry.

My measure of success is based solely on the money I make, weather it is good or bad.

I am happy with myself, my relationship, my life, my possesions. If I made $100/month, I would still be happy. But in my mind not successful.

Validus · 05-03-2003, 08:49 AM

Achievement of specific goals I have set and reaching them when planned.

Thats what powers the Validus Machine!

AdultNex · 05-03-2003, 08:50 AM

You would be happy with $100/month?

I generally do not find myself happy living in a cardboard box.

LadyMischief · 05-03-2003, 08:50 AM

I am successful. I have a wonderful family who loves me and who I adore. Had I nothing else (and at times, I haven't), that would be fulfilling enough.

Jakke PNG · 05-03-2003, 08:51 AM

Money.

slapass · 05-03-2003, 08:54 AM

In business of course it is all about money. But in life overall? Ok I have to go with $$$ there too.

yes, I would be happy. Through the years I have managed to put a few bucks in the bank, etc.
Depending on location, a cardboard box would be great. Saw some nice cardboard homes in Mexico.

Whenever life gets you down?
Keeps you wearing a frown?
And the gravy train has left you behind
And when you?re all out of hope?
Down at the end of your rope?
And nobody is there to thrown you a line
If you ever get so low
That you don?t know which way to go,
Come on and take a walk in my shoes
Never worry about a thing
Got the world on a string
?Cause I got the cure for all of my blues?
(All of his blues?)

I take a look at my enormous penis
And my troubles start melting away
I take a look at my enormous penis
And the happy times are coming to stay
I gotta sing and I dance
When I glance in my pants
And the feelings like a sunshiny day?
I take a look at my enormous penis
And everything is going my way

(Whistling)

I take a look at my enormous penis
And my troubles start a melting away

Yeah I got great big amounts
In the place where it counts
And the feelings like a sunshiny day
I take a look at my enormous penis
And everything is going my way
And everything is going my way
Oh Yeah?

I'll be sure to let everyone know once I get there.
I'm not making enough money to be successful and from the looks of it, it may take years!

Again, I blame TGF!

Postcounts is ALL that matter - im telling you - its THE thing

nocostporn · 05-03-2003, 09:06 AM

i measure it with my big cock

Cassie · 05-03-2003, 09:07 AM

reaching all goals you set for yourself, financially, interlectually, mentally & emotionally. once all of those are reached (at least for me), then success has been obtained.

Joesho · 05-03-2003, 09:09 AM

anybody that says anything but money should be taken out and publicly executed!!! and if they tell you they are happy without money, then they never had any fucking money in the first place!!!!poorness is a disease

KRL · 05-03-2003, 09:09 AM

Success is being in a position where you are able to help others less fortunate. I've not found anything else so rewarding so far.

pimplink · 05-03-2003, 09:10 AM

I measure success in terms of how much energy I've given in pushing to achieve a specific goal and how much I've learned.

Dude I can't tell you how idiotic that statement is.

Money is great, and yeh life is way easier and more fun when you have it, but if you need money to be happy in life then you're fucked in the head, because its not about the money. Its the game of business itself.

Jakke PNG · 05-03-2003, 09:13 AM

Money is like toilet paper, when you have it you don't pay attention to it.. but when you run out, you're fucking pissed.

jollyperv · 05-03-2003, 09:15 AM

By how blurry my vision is at the end of an 18 hour work day.

Can't be happy without money. Can't be happy just because of money.

You do need money to be happy, but it's not what brings the happiness directly. It's a tool.

pimplink · 05-03-2003, 10:17 AM

I agree. Money is A MEASURE of success NOT success itself.

Its amazing how far a little cash can go with a worthy but underfunded organisation.

Not the United Way or anything like that, but the groups you never hear about.. because they can't afford the publicity.. who help people at the street level in your community.
