Is it impossible to feel successful without contributing to the good of society?

I wouldn't say it's impossible, but contributing to society definitely adds a deeper layer to success. Personal achievements can feel meaningful, like when I improved my math grades with Mr. Wang's help, but there's something special about knowing your work impacts others. For example, in my UI design job, the most satisfying projects are those that solve real problems for users-like making an app more accessible for elderly people. That said, success is personal-some might find fulfillment in hobbies or family without broader societal impact. But in my experience, the two combined create the most lasting satisfaction.
