    Some of us are not successful but are satisfied with thier life. Some also are successful but not satisfied with what they reach.

    If you have to choose between the two which do you prefer?For me I will go for SUCCESS...

    I am not satisfied with my present life. Its empty. Thats why dreamed to go for my goals in life. You know what Im a positive thinker, for me the most impossible things in life might happen. Im dreaming big!why not its free anyway.

    Success is always followed by a satisfaction coming in very close second...

    If there is no satisfaction coming .....then you are probably not successful either !!!:rolleyes:

    i'll go with satisfaction.... if u are satisfy with less, then no need to any success... actually i think we all are working for satisfaction, not for success... if you think you satisfy with your success then it is good for you....

    I would choose the second group. Successful but was never satisfied. That way, I could push myself harder towards way forward

    Both are different IMO.

    Success means getting everything in a way which you think while Satisfaction means something similar to compromise (not upto the mark).

    DON.

    The urge to work hard comes from being not satisfied with the present situation. It provides the stimulus for success but at one point, you have to be satisfied with what you have. If you are never satisfied, you can't enjoy life. Peace.

    I think both are inversely proportional to each other.

    As per my view..
    "there is no limit of success.. so if you satisfied then you can't get success more.."

    hmm i think success and satisfaction are two different thing . there is no relationship.

    success - it means a pre-determined goal which is achieved.
    satisfaction - it means your demand to complete your desires.

    hmm people can achieve success but not complete their desires.

    for example top richest mans in the world . they have lot of money . they can spend money by free arms upto 10 th generation. but still they need more. :D

    It is little philosophic that my success satisfies me, but may be that at the same
    time it dissatisfies others who are not happy with my success. Yes I experienced
    this from my close ones too!!

    Success mostly implies satisfaction, but I'd go for satisfaction knowing I've had success or I'm having it.

    Success and satisfaction are virtual categories living in each of us. Only you can answer are you successful and/or satisfied.
