Have you ever wondered about the secret of success? I'm sure you have. Of course success is relative, because it can mean different things to different people. No matter what perception of success you own, I want to share this great TED video - 8 Secrets of Success by Richard St. John. It's not only right on the spot, but it's also funny and entertaining. Here are 8 words that go hand in hand with success as Richard St. John defines it ...
❤ Passion : be driven by your passion. Do what you do not for money, but because you love it. And the money will come anyway :)
❤ Good : practice, practice, practice. With practice comes fluency. Be damn good at something.
❤ Push : you have to push yourself physically and mentally. You have to push through shyness and self-doubt.
❤ Ideas - come up with ideas.
- Listen
- Observe
- Be Curious
- Ask Questions
- Problem Solve
- Make Connections
❤ Work : if you want things happen, you have to work hard & have some fun too. Just be to smile even when it feels tough.
❤ Focus : have a laser like focus on one thing. You will go crazy trying to do too many things at one.
❤ Serve : you have to serve others something of value. Help them by passing on knowledge you have gained from experience.
❤ Persist through failure, criticism, rejection, assholes, pressure.
