People who Succeed

Would you agree that today most of us have the same set of opportunities and the same set of potential?
If you agree with me, then perhaps you might like to consider this puzzling question: If we all have the same opportunities and potential why are some people more successful than others?


What I've found is that the successful people start with a couple of very important qualities. These qualities, I believe, are so vital to success that, if you took it away, I doubt they could ever succeed.
What's more is this: Most people who have not, or are not succeeding in life in a way they would desire, fail to do these two things. So let me enlighten you...

People who succeed - people who live life with a purpose - know what they want to achieve right at the beginning of their adventure to success. They are clear on their life path or Life Purpose. They know what they want in life and they select only opportunities that bring them close to the desired result. They use their past to shape their future, keeping what they like and what works and discarding what fails and thwarts them.

Think about it and see if you agree: If you knew what you wanted and got clear about who you are and how your past experience could be harnessed for the good of mankind then would anything be able to stop you if you consistently applied yourself in that direction?
