Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.

Summary

This quote suggests that true success is measured by how well one is able to recover and rise after hitting rock bottom or facing adversity. It implies that facing challenges and setbacks is inevitable in any journey, but the ability to persevere, learn from failures, and ultimately bounce back from difficult situations defines one's level of success. Success should not be solely measured by accomplishments, but rather by one's resilience, determination, and ability to transform obstacles into opportunities.
