What is success?

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.

Maya Angelou

What all successful people (especially enterpreneurs) have in common is that they really enjoy what they do for a living.

They like their work, their lifestyle, they like whatever they put their hands on.

This attitude is interesting because it works in two ways. You start doing stuff you like and soon enough you will find out about many more things you like. Always chose from a pool of interesting activities and I promise you there are things in there which are not only fun but will pay for your life.

Passion!

All great achievements have one thing in common – people with a passion to succeed.

Pat Cash

Achievement does not happen by chance. It happens because someone sometimes had passion and pushed through.

You can be that someone. Are you passionate about something? Good, do it!

Sooner or later, those who win are those who think they can.

Richard Bach

Mere ability is not enough, you have to believe in your success. Trust yourself and dig into work with the feeling of ‘I can do that’ rather than ‘This seems hard’.

It’s funny how the harder I work the more successful I become.

Jack Warner

Well he should know a thing or two about success.

But this is a universal truth and not at all limited to succes in terms of society or finances. Be it success in your personal life, say a personal sports goal for example or be it something like a childhood dream you always wanted to fulfil:

The more work you put in, the sooner you’ll see results! At first it seems impossible, then improbable, and eventually inevitable. Go for it!

Your excuses…

…stop them!

Nobody is impressed with how good your excuses are.

Excuses are contraproductive in every way!

Why?

Because even if they work, they still don’t work out. A good excuse will keep you from doing something and then what? Having a reason not to do something is the easiest thing. Everybody can do that.

Not giving a damn about those excuses or reasons and instead kicking as is what makes an awesome person.

Go out there and do it! The moment you feel an excuse crawling up your throat, tickling your tounge (it comes automatically), realise it and stop the process right in the tracks.

Consider the postage stamp… it secures success through its ability to stick to one thing till it gets there.

Josh Billings

Be like a postage stamp! Pick your destination and stick to hard work until you get there!

Are you envious?

It is in the character of very few men to honor without envy a friend who has prospered

Aeschylus

You should give your friends respect and honour their accomplishments. Don’t envy their achievements but rather compliment them while working on your own. It is great that they succeed, you should support and enjoy that. What is more cool than having happy and successful friends?

Don’t destroy their success with envy and don’t suck the fun out of sharing achievements with close friends and family.

You will be suprised how much more awesome it feels when you can be happy with and for your friends rather than sitting in the dark corner and thinking fun-consuming thoughts about why they succeeded and you did not.

On new projects

I do not like to repeat successes; I like to go on to other things.

Walt Disney

Success is nice and a great thing to have. But don’t dwell on it, don’t rest on it.

Success does not last, you have to succeed again and again. Continue your search for success every day, start new projects, discover new interests. That is the only way to stay truly happy.

Don’t be afraid of trying genuinely new things. Only through continuous change can one stay true to oneself.
