It's such a depressing, hard and unbelievably difficult question to answer.
In life there is so many ways that you can define and express success, be it power, love, religion, career, age est..
I myself cannot answer that question, but i can share my thoughts and ideas of what i think the answer to success is.
I believe that you should always create that WOW experience, no matter what you do.
Always strive for the highest pinnacle, believe in a performance driven culture that recognises achievement and expects accountability and responsibility in a supportive environment. Always follow true north, demand absolute integrity in all your interactions, and always do what’s best for you, your client, your lover, your religion or your company, it is after all what is expected of you. Never ever plateau, take responsibility to develop yourself to your fullest potential in an environment that promotes performance, development and growth, accent and summit together, commit yourself to sharing and being team players in pursuit to company performance, relationships, religion, life est. Create a peak experience, always delight your internal and external relationships, whether it be professional, private or general and always, ALWAYS, exceed in all expectations.
In my opinion, if someone should ask me what is the secret to success, I would say there is none, i believe that each and every person creates his own secret to success, it is all based on how committed and determent you are to strive for what you believe you can do, never ever to give up, no matter how hard life throws his punches at you. Always stand up and try again. Sometimes people give up to easy, or they base their life on other people’s success. You cannot do that, sometimes someone created his success over night, other maybe a few years, 2 or 5 or even 30 years. All depends on how they hungered for that success. When you see someone making a success fast and maintaining that success you immediately feel you can do the same, you then try it and maybe it doesn’t work, now at this point 90% of people would just give up, they think they tried and failed, in a case like this i would call that person a coward and hypocrite for giving up that easy. Success is hard work, some have it easier than other, some have inheritance and support from investors est and others start from scratch. I classify myself as successful, maybe not in richness yet, but rather in life. I overcame difficult obstacles in my personal life when i was very young, I managed to get myself on the right tracks and committed myself in becoming the best person that I can allow myself to be, i worked my way up in my personal and professional life, working with great people, successful people, learning from them, observing and portraying what I learned, in my opinion I learned from the best. Soon i found myself at a path where I had the option of creating my own empire, which I then did, not knowing that it would turn out to be the hardest thing I have ever done, but it worked, I had an successful company for little more than two years, had excellent staff and my companies profit margin grew every month, then I made one simple mistake, I thought i could play with the big dogs while in actual fact I was still a puppy. This in return cost me to lose everything. Now at this point most people would give up, I won’t lie and say that i didn’t also have that thought, I was at a crossroad, give up or stand up... So I stood up, I retained my contacts, I slowly but surely took the time to observe and calculate the mistakes I have made and I corrected them. Soon I found myself at a new beginning with endless opportunities, I was confronted by a very wealthy and successful business man who, i guess, saw the drive i have inside me and he offered me a partnership i could not resist. So far.. So good!!!!!
In these changes I believe that i can without a doubt classify myself as a success and give myself a well-deserved pat on the shoulder as i know that my future will be bright and cheerful, as long as i stay on the narrow path and always believe and know that at any time everything can be taken away from me, so in actual fact this means that i should not think that I’m better or smarter than someone else, i should never ever look down to someone unless it is to help that person, that i should always keep both feet firm on the ground, and never forget that i am here solely because of one person, my creator, if I don’t go down on my knees every night thanking the Lord for what He has done for me and always believe that as long as I take Him everywhere with me i would be okay then i would never be able to be who I dream to be.
With that said, want to come to the conclusion that each and every on of us has the potential to be successful, it's just how you do it, what your decisions are and what your moral standards bring out. Always believe, always keep dreaming and never ever give up, and remember that you will only create your success if you take the Lord with you each and every step of the way.
