What does success look like to you? "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful." - Albert Schweitzer. This quotation reminds us that passion fuels success. Another insightful quote by Colin Powell says, "A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination, and hard work." It emphasizes that success doesn't come easy; it's earned through relentless effort and tenacity. A few years back, I answered a question on success, and it goes like this: 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘵𝘴 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘶𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘧𝘶𝘭? It only took a few seconds for me to respond because I knew the answer by heart: 𝗪𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗽 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴. These two things combine the two quotes above. If you love what you're doing, you cannot wait to do it again each waking day of your life. And if you want to make your dream come true, you will work hard for it, and that includes shutting up to read hundreds of books and listening to thousands of podcasts on the matter. Let us strive to find joy in our endeavors and stay persistent in our hard work to achieve the pinnacle of success.

Love this post so much David Ho I found a study that talks about how happy people are 25% more likely to find success versus those who depend on their happiness for success! You know how so many people say "If only... then I'll be happy" - well, the study shows that being happy *now* - that's what will lead you to success!
