Success does not belong to a select group of individuals (个人). _____1____ Here are some useful practical ways for you if you want to be a success.
Desire. Desire is the strong wish to achieve a goal. Without desire you have nothing. Before you can run with desire, your goal must be plain, clear, and it must also be exciting.
Show up. Seventy percent of success in life is showing up. You can’t have a best seller, if you have never written a book. ____2_____Showing up doesn’t lead to success, but if you don’t show up, you won’t succeed.
Fail. Unless you’re willing to have a try, fail unhappily, and have another try, success won’t happen. ______3_____ As Thomas J. Watson said, a simple formula (公式) for success is to double your rate of failure . So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.
Work Harder. Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day. _____4____It’s about doing what the common person is unwilling to do. And on a deeper level, it’s about creating habits that the common person is unwilling to create. It’s the habit of doing things with excellence that causes success.
Enjoy the Journey. Success is a journey, not a destination (终点). Success is not a certain car or a certain house or a certain happy marriage. _____5____You have to enjoy the journey.
Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you’ve got.” You have to change, you will change, and you will succeed.
Failure is the mother of success.Never give up. To have success you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. You can’t get your dream job, if you’re afraid to turn in an application. Success is the enjoyment of the journey. Success is not about doing what the common person can’t do. F. Success belongs to those who are willing to go after it and try their best to do what they have to do.
