Crossword Genius

Be successful while away (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pass

I believe this is a double definition.

'be successful' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'while away' is the second definition.
(pass time)

(Other definitions for pass that I've seen before include "Blow over" , "Decline to answer" , "Succeed; overtake" , "Give indication of not knowing" , "Authorise; overtake" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
