For Robert, success isn't about piling up cash or chasing fame. Early in life, he associated achievement with accolades and material wealth, but experience shifted his perspective. "Success is whatever you are comfortable being... For me, it's taking care of people, helping them get out of debt, or buying socks for someone on the street," he explained. Takeaway: By focusing on the impact one has on others rather than status, anyone can anchor their goals in authentic values and long-term fulfillment.
