"Success is
achieved when a
stretch goal is met
overcoming problems and difficulties by conscious effort and by application
of capabilities, resources and methods.
It is to be differentiated from
luck, chance and
doing what comes naturally without effort."
~
Francis Lobo, the author of

If A is a
success in life, then
A equals X plus Y
plus Z.
Work is X; Y is play; and
Z is keeping your mouth shut...

worthy ideals through making the most of all the available resources.

it is doing your best according to your own desires and
goals.

4 WHYs of True Success
Success is 90% in your mind. Keep
investing in increasing your mindset to attract greater and greater success
into all areas of your life.
>>>
Choose Success
Failure never "happens", it's your choice. If
you believe that failure
is not a choice, you'll never fail. Test new ideas, learn from what works, and
what doesn't, and then apply these lessons to your next
experiment, test or idea. Keep
doing this until you get results you are satisfied with.
→
Failure as a
Stepping Stone To Success
Don't give up when things go wrong. Every
costly lesson is going to result in exponentially greater success in the
long term. Seek out the positive in every bad situation and ask, "What can I
learn from this? How can do it again more intelligently?"
>>>
The Trap of Fixation on Success
Success is nearly a magical idea for most
people. In his book The Active Life, Parker Palmer points out that
in the West fixation of people on success discourages them from risk
taking "because it values success over
learning,
and it adhors
failure whether we learn from it or not. It always wants to win but win
or lose, it inhibits our learning. If we win, we think we know it all and
have nothing more to learn. If we lose, we feel so defeated that learning is
a hollow consolation... It traps us in a system of praise or blame, credit
or shame, a system that gives primacy to goals and external evaluations,
devalues the gift of self-knowledge, and diminishes our capacity to take
risks that may yield growth."
