The Misconceptions of Success

It seems many people believe that it takes a lot of luck to become successful. These people look at the ones considered to be a success, and think (1) there is no way I can become that, or (2) I am just not lucky enough to become that.

I want to now challenge these thoughts....

Ben Franklin once said, "Diligence is the mother of good luck." When I read into this saying, I come to the conclusion that people become successful not because of luck, but rather because they commit themselves to the hard work success breeds. Through commitment, these people move agilely through the challenges until they reach the level they want to achieve, and luck simply becomes an afterthought.

I want to encourage people to find their passion, and become committed.
