You have success completely Misunderstood / Du hast Erfolg völlig Missverstanden / Você tem sucesso completamente Incompreendido / Tienes éxito completamente Incomprendido

I am amazed at how many people define success as making (or having) a lot of money.

By 0 , Permalink

If you have ever been called self-absorbed, you can be sure you were not getting a compliment.
