Success leaves clues. Go figure out what someone who was successful did, and model it. Improve it, but learn their steps. They have knowledge.
In truth, the only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits.
Successful people make their decisions quickly and change their minds slowly. Failures make their decisions slowly and change their minds quickly.
Whenever you see a man who is successful in society, try to discover what makes him pleasing, and if possible adopt his system.
What succeeds we keep, and it becomes the habit of mankind.
Virtue with some is nothing but successful temerity.
If you consistently and persistently do the things that other successful people do, nothing in the world can stop you from being a big success also.
The one thing that's common to all successful people: They make a habit of doing things that unsuccessful people don't like to do.
Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure.
