How would you define someone who "has their life together"?

And how would you define someone who doesn't? Can you list some specific things that one of these types of people would do or not do?

Looking forward to reading a lot of unrealistic expectations and snobby answers...
If you can take care of yourself, and do so honestly without hurting others (like without stealing for example) Ideally have some notable accomplishments, a not giving up attitude and youre ever working towards improving quality of life.

Without a doubt. That or a jewl encrusted gold goblet works.
But for real you should in my book also be kind, good, sympathetic of others pain and not constantly in the pursuit of crack rock

Anyone opposite of me has their shit together.
(Dropped out last semester, jobless, losing friends, girlfriend not much better, lost house, savings)
My shit is NOT together, not even close.

Most babies I've met have their lives together.
-------------------- How to get started in bulk: Presto 23-Quart Pressure Cooker BOD's Simple as FUCK Still Air Box PastyWhyte's Easy Agar Tek Munchauzen's Cultivation Video Series How EvilMushroom666 Prepares His Grains (I use jars with Synthetic Filter Discs) What is G2G? (Grain-to-Grain) Damion5050's Coir Tek (I use 5.5 - 6 quarts of water instead of 4. Also ignore step 13 and ignore the monotub completely. The only purpose of this tek is to show you how to make a simple substrate. I also add gypsum to it but not necessary) Spitball's Monotub Tek (A liner isn't necessary but is useful) Use 6500k lights throughout the whole process. When you wake up, turn the light on. When you go to sleep turn the light off. It's as simple as that.

If you can live your life the way you want to without the help of others, then I'd say you have your life together
And like Sheek said, having a grill is a good starting point

It depends on your goals...
At a minimum I would say: Paying your own way honestly, free from hard drugs and other self-destructive habits, and being relatively content.
For me there are a few other requisites.

How so
because my answer is better and less convoluted, and the simplest answer is usually the right one- Occam's razor.
a house is not necessary. for example, an apartment can do just fine, if someone is able to have their life there. a job, same difference. a car (that's laughable), same difference. clearly you have just postulated some stuff that you have and said to yourself "you need these things otherwise you've got nothing to offer".
and healthcare, that's also not even something someone can procure just for themselves, unless you're talking about having food and shelter from the elements, in order to care for your health not being extinguished.

Paying your own way honestly
rather ambiguous, but i'd tend to agree with the figurative notion here. if you can recompense someone for helping do something, that's the proper way to live.

Sounds to me like youre just trying to justify why you dont have your shit together.

the phrase "have your shit together" is a meaningless arbitrary contumely castigation of people around one whom doesn't fit into your world-view of what people "should have" to be "together".
thanks to people like you, the roads are congested, the housing market is overpriced garbage filled with subprime mortgages, and the job market is flooded with endless drunken louses working for piddling. congrats.
but it's still as i said, just a bunch of a bullshit. but feel good about your "life being together", i mean at least you're not drowning in the bottom of a barrel anymore...your statement is still bullshit, however. you just like to feel good about your minor acheivements and boil your success down to an easy equation, and you must think, according to your statements, that if someone does have those arbitrary things, those notions you hold, they must not have their life together.
and i know you love threads like this, because again...no more drowning so you gotta make that known somehow. don't you?

I ride the bus to work. I do have healthcare, as provided by employment. I dont own a house. The job market is flooded, but when hasnt it been? I dont see how these things are my fault. There are certain things I would like to have in life, and sometimes you gotta jump through hoops to make it happen. Choose your battles.

see, that statement isn't bullshit. 
so i don't feel the need to call it out as such.
basically, since, according to you, your own needs not being "met" by your own standard, i'm happy to inform you that your original statement was bullshit.

It has to be vague. If you run a business by exploiting your workers, the public or the ecosystem, that isnt an honest living. Its a big subject on its own, so I left it vague.

I dont see it that way, you can have your situation levelled out living in a shack in the woods if thats really what you want to do. Being personal goals I understand your priorities, but I dont think Akira is being disingenuous.
