Who would you say is the most successful person that you know on a personal level? What are the indicators of success in this person’s life?

Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an Egyptian officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the bodyguard, bought him from the Ishmaelites, who had taken him down there. ² The Lord was with Joseph, so he became a successful man… ³ Now his master saw that the Lord was with him and how the Lord caused all that he did to prosper in his hand. ⁴ So Joseph found favor in his sight and became his servant; and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he owned he put in his charge…. (50:20)  As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about this present result, to preserve many people alive.
