From Work Comes Success

Success comes when you are committed and take action; when you take responsibility for your life; when you're in charge of your actions. Sure, you will have bad days; you'll make mistakes, be afraid at times. Just remember: Everyone goes through this, no matter what level of success they have achieved.
 
So remember this saying: When one door closes, two open. Is there truly any other way to think?
 
Too often many people tie their success to outside circumstances. They are hoping to win the lottery, to "get lucky," to find the one deal or one sure thing that will make them successful, comfortable, and wealthy. In the meantime, they are missing all the truly good opportunities around them because they are focused on the easy path. They lose sight that opportunity often comes disguised as work.
 
Here is another quotation my friend and Mastermind Group member Brenda shared with me:
 
"The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary." - Vince Lombardi
 
I think Vince Lombardi was right. I think many of us have lost sight of the fact that work is necessary to success. I am lucky in that I figured this out early. I was hungry for success. I had a vision for my life. I didn't know how I would get there. I just knew work would be involved, and I could do that.
 
Work=Success
