Success!!!

Hi All,

Success comes in all sorts of shapes and sizes and forms.  For example, is the person who has 3 grown, independent children more or less successful than a school teacher? Or is the wealthy investment banker more or less successful than an award winning journalist?  Lots of different examples can be generated, but the one thing in common is success?  What is success? 

And, more importantly, how can you achieve it?

Readers can click on this link from Business Insider for an article titled, '11 Traits All Successful Leaders Share'. Some of the traits are obvious (self-confidence,  self-control and they have plans); other traits are less obvious (they are exceptionally likable, they are sympathetic, they pay attention to details)...


Also discussed in the article is a book written by Napoleon Hill called 'Think and Grow Rich'.  Click here for reviews of the book from Amazon.com - where you can, of course, purchase the book if you would like.  Alternatively, you can inter-library loan the book from the library by clicking on this link.

And if you think you are starting at the bottom in your current job or work; click on this link from, again, Business Insider, for an article entitled, 'Humble First Jobs of Successful People'.   Successful people mentioned in the article include Lloyd Blankfein, Richard Branson, President Obama, Donald Trump and Michael Bloomberg.  Interesting - and fun - article to read.

And, for a more mainstream article, click on this link from the Huffington Post for an article entitled, '18 Ways to Live a Successful Life'.  It is both interesting and inspiring and gets to the heart of what success truly is.

Enjoy the links and here's to being successful!  Good luck!
