Ten Myths about Success
1) One can't be successful because of limited education.
Anybody who's got a vision can be successful. Most of the world's greatest & richest men were school drop-outs.
2) Successful people don't make mistakes.
Successful people make mistakes just like we all do. They just don't repeat them. Mistakes make them wiser
3) You've got to work 150 hours a week to be successful.
It's not a matter of doing a lot of something. It's more about doing the right thing.
4) You'll be a success only if you play by the rules.
Who makes up the rules anyway? Sometimes following the rules is needed, other times setting your own is required.
5) If you have help along the way, it's not success.
Great people make others successful along with them. Success rarely occurs in a vacuum. Recognize those who can be an asset.
6) It takes a lot of luck to be successful.
It takes a lot more hard work, vision, knowledge, and application. Your luck is directly proportional to your efforts.
7) It’s success only if you make a lot of money.
It's not mandatory to be rich to be successful. Money is just one of the many benefits that may or may not come along the way.
8) It's success only if everybody knows it.
Getting an ego-massage is not success. Even if nobody knows & you enjoy doing it & getting what you want, then you are a success.
9) Success is a goal.
Success is a process of continuous realization of your goals. Saying you 'want success' begs the question: 'At what?'
10) Once I'm successful, my troubles are over.
No, you'll still have the ups and downs. Enjoy what you achieve. Live each day as it comes. Real success makes every around you happy.
