Hi everyone, what does success mean to you? Good marks, great job, lots of money, or a comfortable life? 2 years back, if you had asked me the same question, I would have answered exactly that, because that's what I believed success looked like. In fact, whenever I met someone new, I would quietly judge them. What do they do? How much money do he have? And without even realizing, I would give more respect to some and less to others. Then one evening, Everything changed. I was sitting in with my family during a family gathering. One of our relatives had just passed away. Everyone began sharing memories about him, and I was curious. I thought, now they'll talk about how much money he had, what was his job, and what was his status. But something unexpected happened. Nobody mentioned his salary. Nobody talked about his status. Instead, someone smiled and said, "He was always there for me and my family whenever we needed him." Another person laughed and said, "You know what, he was the funniest guy I've ever met." And then I suddenly realized something. Some were smiling and some had tears in their eyes, not because of what he owned, but because of how he made others feel. That night, one question refused to leave my mind. What will people talk about me one day? What will they remember? My marks? My achievements? Or the kind of person I choose to become? That question changed my definition of success. Yes, success matters. We should all work hard, have a great job, have a great day. But there is one thing which is even more important. Achievements may open doors, but character opened hearts. Since that day, I've stopped judging people on the basis of their money, job. Instead, I ask myself these 3 questions: Are they kind? Are they honest? Do people feel respected when they're around them? Because those are the things that last. If I could leave you with just one message today, it will be this: Treat everyone with respect, not because of who they are, but because of who you are. I'll end up with a quote by Maya Angelou that perfectly captures what I've said. People will forget what you did, people will forget what you said, but they'll never ever forget how you treated them. So yes, maybe success isn't measured by what we achieve, it is measured by the memories we leave behind in the hearts of others. Thank you. Awesome! Let's give it up for Dutch!
