definitions of progress

first assuming progress is a good thing... (for most of us, "better" is more desirable than "good", at least until one sees through the illusion of reality, achieves enlightenment, etc etc, i.e. any of the higher level things that i don't get yet)

so, what are the aspects that we can progress on?

material - more earthly possessions

physical body - healthier body

knowledge - understanding the things that make the world tick

wisdom - gaining through age and experience, particularly from bad ones

morality - hurt less people, and if possible, help more people

the spirit - this, i can only imagine the result - the almost mythical sense of true, constant peace.
