I completely agree with you. Success comes from within. What is success for one person my be excess to another.BookReader+6 wrote: ↑04 Nov 2018, 18:10 No, I don't think you have to associate with successful people to be successful yourself. Success is not only a measurement of financial wealth and being in high society. I think success is a subjective view of satisfaction with your life.

I agree. Some people want money, some want fame, and some just want close trusted friends.

I think that in order to be successful you need to be in peace with yourself so that you can take the right choices and don't blame yourself when things go wrong. Having successful people around you might give you insight but is not what will make you successful in the end.Jsovermyer wrote: ↑03 Nov 2018, 15:35 The author is told that if you want to be successful, then you need to associate with successful people.
Do you agree? Can you only be successful with successful people's help? Can you make it on your own?

Luck, on the other hand, often plays into it even with those advantages.

I think the author has advised to surround yourself with successful people to have a BENCHMARK. Like aiming a moon you will surely land in stars if not on the moon.

Just how committed are you to your goal? How important is it for you, and what are you willing to sacrifice in order to achieve it? If you find yourself fully committed, motivation will follow.
