Success: Three Things That Are Required

Recently I did a review of the biographies of some of the most successful people in history, and in doing so discovered three things that they all had in common. They were:

1. Dreams

Each and every one of them were driven in a pursuit of accomplishing a dream, no matter how ambitious that dream might have been, or how many obstacles they would have to overcome. If one effort failed they simply moved on to another one. As Thomas Edison once said, “I never failed. I just found 10.000 ways that didn’t work”.

2. Hard Work

Speaking of work, anyone wishing to fulfill their dream must be willing to put in the long hours of doing whatever it takes, including the learning and executing of that learning. There is no doubt that whatever challenges we face along the way can serve to make us stronger.

3. Never Give Up

There is much truth in the saying “When the going gets tough, the tough get going”. No matter how many times the successful people failed in the quest for their dream, they never quit. They just got up off the “mat” and kept going.

It would appear that like others in history who have been hugely successful, the formula is well proven. Do we have what it takes to duplicate that formula?

Good words!

Hi Roland, You were never so right on the three steps of success. You have given us the exact recipe for success. And it makes sense too.

We all have dreams that need to be fulfill.
We all work hard for others now it is time we work hard for ourselves.
And we never give up by any means that is not in our vocabulary.

This formula works we just have to do it and put it in force for ourselves.

Mary

Great reminder that even Thomas Edison faced struggles with the "10,000 ways that didn't work". However, just like him everyone is capable of reaching their dreams by working hard and never giving up. Thankyou for the inspiring words!

Hi Roland, this is so true. If they had given up then they would not have made it to where they are or were. Lesson to learned...if we want to succeed we must never give up.

You speak very true words, Roland!
