 * The definition of success is subjective, it has different meanings ﻿ to different people so does the articles define sucess as having a lot of money does it define success as being complacent with one's decisions and one's life? ﻿I think the article covers success in general and I think it was meant to aware people about the ﻿characteristics that help people make more successful.
 * Why these factors? they affect people mentally, emotionally, and socially so they feel like they can do better.
