One might have moments "of making it in life"
But because humans are so complex, there will be times, no matter how much, which ever, why one thinks of "making it'
There will be rooms of failure, which ever "Words" come thier way.
We all know that.
Its a tell tale sign
"Prognosis?
Know yourself, is by being kind,give,understand,listen,widen your area of thinking knowing.
Look inside.
YOU
Your the motor.
The power is what is behind the thinking.
Care
will,can could fall apart, just by self listening to a depreciaring

Real strivers never do feel like they've made it and that's the curse of ambition. The aspiring man and his society goes mad on the road to progress never being content with things as they are.
And the weird thing about stress, negativity, frustration and the sense of underachievment is that they concentrate at the top and bottom of society. Positivity, optimism and the sense of everything being ok come from the comfortable middling class.

Yes i agree, and then at the end of their lives ,sometimes, have regret that they
didn't do things differently.

didn't do things differently.
May be so, many have encouraged to forward a cause, be it that they are still not living. The only regret would be, no one listened. then.
Yet many did(Secretly)
They are aware and out there

BritishLondon: Then again women used to have 6 kids where now they have 2. We don't need as many births anymore and women have generally speaking shared the labour.
This is not the case in the world of work. 2 men do all the inventing, consulting and plumbing so 4 men can enter finance, marketing and doodle drawing. The economy doesn't share meaningful work around. In place of this you get a few doing what really needs to be done and a many doing what really doesn't need doing. The Socialists pledge of this century should be to say that no woman shall enter the world of PR without first having
cleaned a thousand toilets, no man may enter the profession of finance without first laying a mile of runway.
If you're one of these vital people doing what the world really needs - and you'll know who you are - for 50 hours a week then consider doing it for only 25 and sharing half of your purpose with the spurious and trivial. Together can we rouse this will of the small and twatty to do what has to be done.

I cannot shake the feeling that if everyone worked 25-30 hours a week at something purposeful then we'd all be better off. If even 10 in your 30 hour working week had an element of purpose then the emotional uplift would be immense.
And in practice what I'm probably alluding to here is the future where everyone gets given a basic income, works half as much and volunteers the rest at something which at least feels like a worthwhile contribution.

I think it's premature to claim your life was successful, while your still alive.
