The 27-year-old famous dancer, singer, actress, and now a Judge on Dancing with the Stars redefines success as a fulfillment and by having that feeling, it's when you truly feel you are successful.

"I thought success meant having wealth, respect, and fame," Hough said. "I pushed myself to every single limit, trying to reach that idea of success. I really feel that I actually did achieve a lot of what I had set out to achieve but no matter how successful I was on paper I never really felt that I was successful. I never felt content. I was always looking trying to get to the next level."

Having all that success in her hands, she has come to realize that wealth, respect, and fame are not really making her truly happy. Though it took her a long time to personally realize the meaning of true success, Hough never gives up on what she truly feels about herself.

Hough added that, "what I want from my nieces, nephews and friends to know is that we get to create our own success... that success is being happy with yourself, doing what you love and be surrounded by amazing people."

In her website, she wrote:

I'm excited to share with you guys this great podcast I did recently with the awesome Lewis Howes. We had an incredible conversation about what I believe is the key to my success and lessons I've learned on my journey to where I am today. We also discussed my inspirations, motivations, disappointments and fears. It was definitely my most candid interview yet. It felt so good to be that vulnerable and real in an interview.
