COMMON DENOMINATOR

 The common denominator of truly successful people is the hard work they do to deserve their success!

Success is not something that just happens to lucky and talented people.

Successful people develop their talents and leverage them to achieve their purpose in life.

Here is how successful people get lucky:

1.      They work hard. See hard work as necessary for success in any endeavor or adventure.

2.      They work smart. Copy success from people with proven track record of success; people with fruit in their trees.

3.      They don’t take short cuts. There is no shortcut to success or significance. Take time to do it right the first time. You have enough ingenuity in you to figure things out.

4.      They have patience. Long term thinking is the key to produce long term results.

5.      They have fun. Fun helps to keep things in perspective. Enjoy the trips towards your destination.

6.      They get up after every fall. Any worthy dream or goal always brings failures during the journey of any achiever.

7.      They persist all the way to the finish line. Nothing takes place of tenacity and persistence. Have you ever seen a statue for a quitter?

The future belong to those who can see and pursue opportunities before they become obvious. 

Those that take swift action will always leave those that don't breathing the dust.

Be blessed and be a blessing to others!
