This book will explain and highlight the actions that a young person must do in order to be successful

Chapter one

Have you ever thought about what success is? What criteria do you use to determine whether you are successful or not? Most people have never done this or have adopted a template type definition: "success is when there is a lot of money, fame and recognition." When people imagine a successful person, they see him with a big house, an expensive car, and a picture of him on the cover of a magazine.

what is success?

First of all, success is doing your favorite thing. After all, if you do not like your work, how can you consider yourself successful, even though you earn millions? Secondly, it is to achieve your goals and enjoy it. Third, it is to make life what you want and live that life.

But without money, of course, nowhere. Lack of finances will not help you fully enjoy life, communication and business. But money itself is not a success. Will you be successful if you hate your job, but if you get good at it? From the outside, it may seem that Yes, you are successful, earn well, and therefore in everything else you have everything super. But this is clearly not the case. The same can be said about all areas of life. Relationships, friends, recreation, work, self-development, and so on. Any sphere, if it suffers, it prevents you from being successful.

From the above, we can draw a conclusion and say what success is. This is harmony in all spheres of life. This is a life that you live the way you want it to be. And it is harmony and not a perfect sphere. After all, if you think that you have achieved an ideal in some way, then you have stopped developing. You no longer set goals or achieve them. So you are more of an unsuccessful person.

Of course, it is not always so easy to do this. All actions have consequences that may prevent you from making your choice. I specifically say that there are consequences, not responsibilities. Because you don't have to do anything, but everything has consequences. And they are the ones that prevent you from making a choice

How to become successful ?

1. Love your business, not money

More precisely, it is not even love, but passion for their occupation. Not work for hire from 9 to 18 on weekdays-waiting for the shift to end. On the contrary, the desire to work longer, more productive and better. Even on weekends, even at night.

"The only way to true satisfaction is through work that you consider outstanding. And the only way to make your work stand out is through your love of what you do," the writer quotes Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple

The author of the book also interviewed the current us President, Donald Trump. "I just like what I do, and if you love what you do, you will give it your all. And then people say: "Oh, you're a guy with ambition," he said. I wonder how trump feels about his current job?

The goal is to get 80% pleasure from your work. The remaining 20% is routine, without which it is impossible. If the ratio is different, you are not doing your job, the writer believes.

2. Work and work again

Labor is the price for entering the territory of success, and all successful people, regardless of their field of activity, work hard, the author of the study writes.

"We worked on our search engine 24 hours a day. Inspiration alone is not enough for success. It consists of 90% of work up to the seventh sweat, " - said Google co-founder Larry page.

All successful people work longer than others. But they can't be called workaholics. They are rather hard workers. Because they get joy from work.

Famous investor 86-year-old Warren Buffett, one of the richest people on the planet, could have retired long ago, but the love of his work does not allow him to do it. He says: "When I go to my office every morning, I feel like I'm going to the Sistine chapel to paint murals." Do you feel something like this on your way to work?
