Do criminals or terrorist measure themselves by how much bounty is put on their heads? Did Bin Laden think he was king shit because he was the top guy on all wanted lists?

I think it’s more likely that they measure success by how much improvement they bring to the lives of the people they care about.

Some men aren’t looking for anything logical, some men just want to watch the world burn. Was there any meaningful improvement to anyone Bin Laden cared about after 9/11, or did he expect there to be? Seems like for a terrorist by definition is looking to cause maximum terror, not improving anyone’s life.
