Q: Sophy, what are some types of success?

a)

We learn which habits are important. We study hard and pass the test. This teaches us to keep studying. If we don't study and we fail, we learn the same thing.

b)

People can be financially successful, or successful in school, or they can have a good family life.

c)

I think we learn more from failure. When I fail at something, I know I need to learn a lesson, so I really pay attention. If I'm successful, I might not think about why I am successful.

d)

Well, you can learn from your relationships with people. If I have a good friendship with someone, it teaches me about what I value in a friendship, like honesty. If I lose a friend because I lied to him, it teaches me not to lie to my friends in the future.
