Success: How Badly Do You Want It?

You say you want to succeed. But how badly do you want it? Do you want it to the exclusion of all other pursuits? Do you want it more than you want to steal 10 more minutes of sleep in the morning? Do you want it more than you want to meet your buddies for a beer after work? Do you want it more than you want to watch the playoffs game? Do you need it to fuel your very life force – as much as the air that you breathe  or the food you eat? The secret to success is that there is no secret. Only hard, quiet, solitary, unglamorous work.
