I think is a feeling of happiness and self accomplishment. A feeling that our mission is done and we feel good about ourselves and the things around us.
I think this is very similar to the question “what is our purpose in life?”. I think most people feel that good job, good family, kids, being happy is success. Which I agree that it is but it is also not the only way of accomplishment. I’d say you are successful in life if you haven’t done any evil knowingly and managed to be happy with your life most of the time. At the end, you have to define it by yourself what you consider success.
I agree with Matel, it’s similar to asking what your purpose is. I used to think it was doing good work, being recognised, achievement… but now I think it’s being happy, feeling loved and making others feel loved. Nothing is as important to me as those things.

Happiness. That’s pretty much it. You can be homeless but happy and you have a successful life. Life is nothing but the pusuit of happiness
