what has been the difference between those that succeeded and those that don't. This question has always been on my mind, expecially when i see that majority of my pals are making it big in life, this always makes me ask myself that question. your timely response will be greatly appreciated, please be realistic in your reply, because it will go a long way to help me and who ever is in this same state as me!

To be successful is an attitude. The difference between successful people and unsuccessful ones is that even successful persons fail sometimes and they learn from it and move with increased strength whereas unsuccessful just keep cribing that they are unlucky. Even every failure teaches us something, learn from it and move forward you will come in the category of successful.

I agree with you.
If you don't TRY you are unsuccessful before you start.

While I would agree with you that many dishonest people do succeed, I certainly reject the supposition that honest people do not succeed.
Honest people DO succeed - in more ways than one.

success and failure go together. do not be discouraged by failure. they are necessary component in our lives. like failures success is Temporary. no success is possible w/o the blessings of our God. If you want to be successful, educate yourself even through self-help, and when you continue to improve yourself by educating, you will become successful and you will have a self satisfaction, in the end, it is what you do or accomplish that will make you happy. other fails because of credit card loans, bank loans. worse, because loans/debts/credit card loans can easily wipe out your earnings , savings or your investment. get a credit card if you are sure that you have the discipline. reduce your expenses, increase your income.

A few favourite quotations:
Success comes in "cans" Failure comes in "can'ts"
The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.
Success measured only by money is too cheap.
To succeed, work your tongue little, your hands much and your brains the most.
Self-trust is the first secret of success.
If you think you cannot succeed, you are probably right!
You are on the road to success when you realise that failure is merely a detour.
Success is never final. Failure is never fatal.
If you really want to succeed, make a habit of doing the things that people who are failures don't want to do.
My favourite: If you don't make mistakes, you are not working on hard enough problems - and THAT is the biggest mistake of all!

Success is a relative word. We may see and consider some people successful but in what area? Try to ask any whom you consider successful. Is he successful in every way?
It all depends upon us, ourselves. We are all successful in certain ways. We should count our blessings to find out. And if we really want to succeed, we MUST do what we are supposed to do with all sincerity and purity of heart.

Those who succeed belong to the following category:
WHEN I CAN RUN - I will run
When I can walk - I will walk
When I can crawl - I will crawl. I will atleast always be moving forward. For achieving success one must constantly be moving forward. The sucessful man says ; IT IS DIFFICULT BUT IT IS POSSIBLE. The unsuccessful man says: IT MAY BE POSSIBLE BUT IT IS TOO DIFFICULT.
