I am not successful based off of your perceptions
I am successful on my own satisfaction
I am not my grade point average
Nor am I my weekly allowance

My success is my own happiness and self satisfaction
I am successful because I got a D on my math test and know I tried my hardest
I’m successful because I’ve accepted my own losses
Just as my achievements
