So much of what we strive for, think about, aspire to and gauge our success by, is governed by the validation we receive. Whether it’s from our families, our friends, our colleagues or our social, cultural and political tribes, we constantly measure our success by what others define as successful. Why do we do this? How do we do this? What does this tell us about ourselves? And in a world seeking to navigate through a fresh wave of uncertainty catalysed by post-truth thinking, fake-news discourse and the ever-expanding influence of social media, how do we understand and pursue real success?
