Success. Definitely not something I've ever given too much thought into. But now that I have, and actually broke it down and looked at all the different features and aspects of life that bring you success, it makes sense why its so darn awesome when you get it. For instance, Richard St. John explains in the TED video the eight things that lead to success are; passion, work, good, focus, push, serve, ideas and to persist. And for the most part in almost any thing you succeed in you will definitely find these features, but I believe it takes even more than just these eight.
As I look at what makes me successful in academics, these eight are defiantly present, but it also requires a lot more, such as organization, to study, keep up to date with readings and assignment, to have a support group in place, etc. So I believe there is a lot of work put into success, even though for a lot of it you may not realize just how much it did take to reach that goal. I agree with Richard St. John's explanation of the eight things that go into success, but again I believe it takes much more than those eight depending on what you are trying to succeed in.
