The One Question Every Successful Person Asks! Thoughts?

I often ask myself this question. There are many ways to become succesful today. I think it all starts with trusting yourself and your abilities and asking the question "Why not Me".

Not really just one. Work hard, ask every question you don't know, read and learn, and respect everybody! That makes you pretty successful!

"Am I over-complicating this?"

I'm on the "giving up is not an option", road. to success so I may be answering your question prematurely, but what the hell. When I am thinking up ideas and looking for ways to make them reality, discourgement usually sneaks its head in, in any number of forms. When that happens I remind myself two different things (not necessarily questions, but close enoght): 1. If I don't do it someone else will....I might as well be the one to own it and 2. Just do it. The people who mocked my dreams 2 years ago are the same ones trying to leach on now as things begin to go boom.....funny how things end up when you ignore the BS and drive on.

I am not going to presume success nor pretend that every successful person is a good person. I wish everyone asked the question, am I making the world a better place?

How can I learn from the success/failures of others?
