Consider this sentence from “the fallacy of success”: to begin with, of course, there is no such thing as success. based on your reading of the essay, what does chesterton mean?

There could be numerous different responses to this one, but I would suggest you structure an answer around the following premise:

Success has a different definition for each and every person.

In this sense, the author could be saying that you cannot pin success down to one simple definition. 

To help, you could think about what your definition of success is. What are your dreams and your goals and how do they correspond with those of your friends and family?

You could also state that success has no final destination. For many people, as soon as they achieve one goal, they want to move onto the next one. This means that one will never actually reach a point of feeling successful.

Have a think, reference the essay, and be creative with your answer!
