So much so that sometimes, just the word “success” makes us say, “Wow”.
Not many people have heard of these quotes and even less people have heard or read about the person who wrote this inspirational quote. Bobby Unser, a retired automobile racer.
Some people believe a lot in luck. Luckily, we are not one of them.The Reason why we chose this particular quote is that in just seven words,it tells you that success depends on no one else but you.
1. Preparation and Opportunity: The Two Parts of Success!
The success or failure of anything you do depends on you. Preparation and opportunity are the two main factors that help you get there. Grab any opportunity that comes your way. Big or small, it doesn’t matter. What matters is your dedication towards it.
2. Opportunities: Size does not Matter
Every big thing starts out as a small opportunity when you grabbed despite having nothing. It doesn’t matter if the things you do are small as long as your dreams are big. Your dreams can take you to places you never knew existed; places as good as you had imagined them to be – sometimes even better.
3. Dreams and Opportunities To Preparation
Your dreams and opportunities mean nothing if you don’t work hard towards breathing life into them. Preparation is the life-blood of the opportunities presented to you. Don’t sit back and expect everything to happen exactly as you envisioned, without doing anything. Nothing can be achieved without preparation. Preparation and opportunity go hand in hand with success.
You cannot hope to achieve success without the above two. Success is not about fame and money. It’s not about what you get in the end. Success is about the journey that brought you to the end. It is about the opportunities you grabbed, the sacrifices you made, the preparations you did in order to get to your dreams.
4. The Journey of Success
The journey to success will be something you will never forget. It will remind you of the person you used to be before you achieved and what you did. It will help you stay grounded. It will stay with you and teach you a new lesson throughout your life.
5. Hard Work
