The Catechism tells us tje Jesus, the Master, defines success as "fulfilling that for which we were created, namely, to know, love and serve God on this earth so as so be happy with him forever in heaven." Such success doesn't just happen. It has to be carefully planned and pursued. Goals--long and short term--have to be defined; a direction has to be set and certain rules have to be followed.
