Do you believe that all of us have the same wants and needs in life? I do. If you have the same mindset like I do, you wouldn't care to believe that some are lucky while some aren't. Also, others think that life is confusing. Those who adopted apathy have this mind pattern: if all of us have the similar set of prospects and very similar set prospective then why some people became more successful than other? It may possibly be believed that a number of people are more fortunate than others. And despite the fact that this is unlikely true, you may perhaps disagree that there are proofs, in fact, living proofs of the Cinderella stories. To these days, many who started from scratch eventually went pushed their selves to their limits just to achieve success. And what paid their perseverance? Voila! A meaty monthly paycheck, sense of accomplishment and nobleness. I know you'd feel the same way, would you? Definitely! Maybe you're one of those many who fervently believe that education is the key to life's prosperity. I can't say no, I can't say yes either. Why? Because my conviction is that regardless how educated you are, without the will to succeed, all is vanity. Hardly, you may say. You see, not all educated people are successful and not all and great people are educated. I know a rich man, one of the richest actually (until this year when Forbes Magazine in its August 2007 report states that the Richest Man in the World throne has been transferred to Carlos Slim). Anyway, this rich man that I'm talking about is a college dropout but he was able to create an empire of technology to date. His technological breakthrough actually allowed me to finish this article for the benefit of us all. He's passionate about his programming skills, an innate passion he developed during his younger years. Yes you're correct. I'm talking about Bill Gates.nnWhat's in it for me? No, Bill Gates is not a superhero by birth. He's not a Harvard graduate either. What are we talking about? Yes, you can be as successful as Bill Gates when you possess the following characteristics:nn- Proper mind set to succeedn- Passion to exceln- Conviction to carry onn- Humility to accept feedbackn- Pride to sustain personal beliefsnnBesides, if you're passionate about anything, would you not aim for excellence? I would. And what's Bill Gates' story has to do with our discussion? You see, success is self-measured. Success is a two-way process. It involves proper mindset and passion to excel.nnTick that Passion and Live through Success What else do you need to succeed? Listen. Success is a need and to sustain that need, you should have the same mindset as the successful people. Play the game of success. Act according to the ways of success. Again, no man is an island. While success offers you great things, you can't be with pessimists, apathetic groups. Why not join these groups of people instead? 1. People who are have purpose in livesn2. Knowledgeable peoplen3. Purpose-driven individualsn4. People with big dreamsnnOn the contrary, those pessimists will surely wipe your great chance to succeed. So why not start cleaning your files, remove the negative aura and join the groups who will influence you to success. It's now or never.
