Macbeth

      I find this question pretty difficult to answer, plus I have multiple possibilities but here goes:

The greatest accomplishment I could ever achieve in life would be to have complete happiness and to have my name well known. When I say I want my name to be well known, that doesn't mean my name is in the newspapers for committing a crime; it means I did something significant that impacted other people positively or I did something very impressive. I would hope that no legal boundaries would be broken in doing this, because I don't think it's necessary. I think hard work and "playing the game" could get me to this point; not cheating or lying. Playing the game means doing whatever it is that is necessary to avoid conflict with others. True happiness, in my opinion, would mean having a loving partner, having a decent amount of money, and living in a good place open to opportunities. I would never cheat on a large scale; and when I say that I mean I would never plagiarize, copy a test, etc. but let's say a tiny problem of homework or something came up maybe I'd have someone help me through it. I also would never kill. In this day in age, you will always get caught; plus I wouldn't be able to live with myself knowing I took someone else's life to improve my own. Macbeth didn't realize this, and ended up dying himself in the end, which is what he deserved.
