Look, everyone has bad days, everyone has their own struggles, and there are moments when everyone thinks of giving up. But also, everyone deserves a nudge in the right direction, some advice and wisdom, and some encouragement. There’s no shame in getting inspired by others, and we need some motivation to draw from time to time.

The illustrations of Success Pictures, the Instagram account with over 800k followers, are just about that. Its motivational pictures with deep meaning focus on positive affirmation and inspire people to keep pushing through and achieve hard-earned and well-deserved success. Some of them give useful advice or even wisdom; others just remind us about the realities of life. Whatever it is, the key message is simple—never give up and persevere!

However, not all of these success quotes are about positive thinking. Some of them provide a critique of our society and its ills and remind us about what’s really important (spoiler: it’s not the likes or the money).

The author reminds people to be compassionate and generous towards others, as you may never know what they’re going through or that you won't end up in their place. Here and there, you can find some profound ideas hidden behind simply illustrated imagery.

All in all, there’s much to like about these motivational pictures for success, and there are lots of great ideas to get inspired by. Whatever it is, let’s hope it’ll help you get through a rough day or achieve your own goals. 

It may not be as easy as it may seem, and life is definitely more nuanced than the illustrations might portray, but they still provide an insight that someone may desperately need. In other words, they may not be the end goal, but they won't steer you away from the right path.

These success images aren't the only thing that’s motivational. The triumph of the page is inspiring in and of itself: the illustrations are liked by millions of people, so it’s safe to say they’re very effective in sharing positive thinking. And what’s not to like about them? They’re simple and get the message across easily. Follow Success Pictures Instagram account if you like success pictures with quotes so you’ll never run out of positive thoughts and motivation. Cheers!

Yeah. I'm not going to let my parents tell me who to marry and what gender I should be.

This is just bullshit. Kids have no defense against parents who do not support them but instead keep telling them that they can't do this and are too weak to do that.

I agree, having been constantly knocked down by my parents, there is no defense.

A friend in college would tell me how her parents would berate and belittle her telling her she'd be nothing without them. Then she'd excuse herself from study groups to go mow her parents lawn, take out the trash, do their laundry. Shortly after I pointed out that they seem to depend on her more than she does on them, she left them and married a man that adored her and treated her like a queen. I can tell you those parents of hers were in a sorry state when they were forced to do things on their own.

@David Retsler- sex and gender are different. Sex refers to chromosomes, gender is a social construct. Sex can also change, Sex change may occur naturally, as in the case of the sequential hermaphroditism observed in some species. Hormone injections cause a different set of genes on the DNA to be turned on so that you get, for example, a male pattern of gene expression can be XX. Intersex people can have both male and female sexual characteristics and organs; at birth an unambiguous assignment of male or female cannot be made. Gender is a social construct, therefore gender is not limited to male and female.

What? Silencing dreams? Or clipping him? Clipping him would be awful, using that method, take the first three or so out, not all.

Because he cares about you and doesn't want you arrested for assault. Parental control is actually temporary. As adults we can walk away. Often people don't - they are scared or feel obligated. Parents should not treat a child as though they are property without dreams of their own. If they do they should not be surprised if the child is not there for them as an adult. I hope your friend is able to achieve his dreams - he has you for a friend and that is something special.

The earlier you kill your dreams, the less painful the disillusionment will be when you find out it had been impossible since the beginning.
