It depends. Are you talking about success as a team? Success as a player? Or success as a person and user? The last one might be the only one that's really in your control. Just do your best not to piss people off, make friends maybe, and be a pleasant person to be around in the locker room. That's the only one that's really in your control, and it often will fly in the face of the other two. All three of the goals kind of work against each other, at least in some respect. Success as a player is maybe the most blatant, in that in order to be a successful player, at least in terms of the Heading for the Hall type, you're probably going to need to either leapfrog over a player who would perform better for a roster spot, or move to a team where a newbie would be one of the starters on a team (and thus hamper the success as a team in a completely different way) and, I'd argue, doing the former method would make you a worse user. And even if you are in the best possible situation for both success as a team, success as a player, or both, the sim as always can screw you over.
