Success is a decision. Becoz it is never a choice. Everyone has choices, and almost everyone will choose to become successful. But only less than 20% makes it. If you have decided, then leave yourself with no alternative but your goal. Remind yourself everyday, again and again. Focus.
When Bruce Wayne was just a little boy, he fell into a well at his mansion. His father had to rope himself down to rescue young Bruce. Afterwhich, he asked his son, "Why do we fall?" Bruce was silent as he was still reeling from the shock and pain sustained from the accident. His father added, "So that we learn to pick ourselves up." Even after his parents are gone, Alfred the butler continues to remind Bruce of this. Batman is not invincible and he suffers defeats all the time but he always picks himself up.
