What does it take to be truly successful. Success could be anything.

If, at mid-life, you want to start filling in the missing pieces to be truly happy. Material things dont really count. A soul mate/partner doesnt really count either. Where/what would you turn to find true happiness (success)?

First, I would need to unlock my mind, and lock on to what I am good at doing, finding my passion and going from there.

Honestly, I have created everything I want in my life "to be successful" except that "partner" thing you are dismissing..

I am most successful in my spiritual life...

Success I feel would come from my inner peace. So I would begin with if I am successful in the place of complete acceptance of self. I can love all others. And I can pursue all interests.

The missing pieces, if you want to discount material things...are relationships. Right?

I have excellent relationships with my God, my family, and my friends. I don't need much in the way of material things...except to owe no man (or bank) nothing. Which means I'm getting myself into a place where I own my own home.

My missing piece *is* a good marriage. I truly miss having a partner in life...and when I get all my other ducks in a row...that is probably the only thing that I will be missing. It will only happen...when it happens. You can't *fill* that one yourself, though you can stay open to it...another must do the filling. :)
