Well i guess the best formula is the "Journey + failure = success" This is my belief that in the life of a person we could not get our success if we are waiting for the opportunity because it will never knock your door if you will not get up and take a steps to the path. Be not afraid to take some failure for in that way we learn from it and it will be the reason to make us strong.

Yeah, I agree with you, one should never wait for opportunity to knock on the door but rather take an initiative to look for it and of course be prepared and ready for the consequences, so when it happens you can have the strength to fight for it, and if ever ones fail, it does only mean that one should work harder and learn and grow. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I wanted to share to you a line that I have read in a book sometime ago. It says "if a person does not have a goal he will never make any progress no matter how straight and wide the road is." You must have a goal and have a mindset of an entrepreneur that means having a single minded stubbornness in achieving goals. The story of Odysseus tells us that man's fate lies with the action of the person. Believe in yourself and shoo away people who would try to say negatively about your plans in life. If you want to punch the moon at least aim for the stars.

Yeah, you're right. One need to have goal as guide towards her/his dreams in life, and courage to never accept defeat.We need to dream as far as we can and keep working on it, until we reach our dream. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

Yes, I also heard many things that you need to do in order to become successful in life. I read magazines about businesses and I saw one section of the page which contains real life story and how to become successful in life. It says that you need to become diligent, persistent and knowledgeable about the business that you want to start. You must put lots of effort and have faith in God. You must believe in yourself, you must think positively.

It's not easy but if you won't give up, you will surely get there. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

Hey careguarden! I really don't know what the recipe for success in life is! I wish I did! If I did I would have taken it by now! I took all the wrong turns in my life so if I could keep someone else from doing all the same wrong things that I did I would! You just have to try to think clearly, make the best decisions that you can and hope for the best! I had alot of roadblocks in my because of family issues and then other issues that I let stand in my way~ If I could do it all over again I would do it all different! But, in life you don't get do-overs and that is the problem! You only get one chance so you better get it right the first time!

The main ingredient for me is hard work. It definitely works wherever. Without hard work, you will not reach the peak. Next ingredient would be talent/skill. It is important to have the skill necessary in your chosen field :)

Success is that in which many ingredients are presents. I feel personally that only one ingredient will not work some time. It is all our sincere effort concentration,hard work,dedication time and also some money - and many other ingredients are there depending upon the project or the work with which are dealing. My main ingredient which will work for my cases are strong "A will and dedication."

Yeah, I agree with you having a strong will and dedication to what you're doing will open you the door of success. It's the same thing with having faith and belief in your self and in God, even though failures come your way, you will never give up and lose sight of your dreams. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

There is no secret ingredient for success and it doesn't come by chance.Only honest effort and unperturbed may lead you to success.Again success depends on how you define it.To me success is living free-bereft of all obligation. Thanks Happy Mylotting!!
