The New Version of That New Thing

A successful life is not one filled with important meetings, active social lives, high wealth, or fame. In the words of Thoreau, rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth. To find truths and values, Thoreau look to nature, independence, and a life of simplicity. A successful life is simply a conscious one made of authenticity, self-reliance, and continual adaptation toward who we are and how we want to live.
