One Thing For Long Term Success

"My grandmother used to say that good things take time, but great things happen all at once."

One Thing That define your success. It's not your Good looks, social Intelligence, Money, IQ and Talent.

It’s hard to know if something you are working on is going to be a long-term success. There are basically two pieces of advice floating around about building or accomplishing anything. They are:

1) Persevere and keep going. Great things take time to build.


2) Fail quickly. Don’t waste time on things that aren’t working.

We all intuitively know that great things take time to build. There are no overnight successes. It takes 10-years to become an overnight success (just ask any actor, writer, or entrepreneur who has ‘made it’).

And yet, opportunity costs mean that you work on one thing at the expense of an infinite number of other, potentially better, opportunities. That’s why you should ‘fail quickly’ and move on to find the one with the greatest upside. 


These two pieces of advice seem contradictory. But, there’s one missing idea that fuses them:

"Don’t Count the Days, Make the Days Count"

Don’t worry so much about how long you’ve been doing it. Make today count. Focus on what you can do right now. That advice seemed to work well for Muhammed Ali. It can serve you well too, by keeping you in motion and not worrying about the past or future, of which you have no control over.

2) Courage is the 2 key to success

The more we can manage to stop forward, take action and face our fears, the more courage we will build up and the bigger the results we will enjoy. Those who made it and enjoy success were not saved from feeling fear, Courage is not something we either have or don't.
