Understand The Formula

Man-made things have man made formulas. If someone has succeeded, you too, can also succeed just the way they did and even more.

It's a two-part process where (1) you would have to figure out how they got there, what did they do right and wrong, then (2) carrying it out.

Part 1 is a result of your obsession to succeed, to go out there and go to the end of Earth to figure out what really works and not.

Part 2 might come to surprise for a lot of people, but carrying it out is the part that people always fail to do, for whatever reason there is: fear, doubt, overthinking...

But the truth is the truth, there is always a formula for everything that is man-made. There is a formula to why Warren Buffet succeed stock, to why Elon succeeded rocket building. There is always a formula.

What is your success?

As a consequence of social media influence, most of us no longer know what is the success that we're looking for.

We get hooked on money and the way that 19 year olds make millions that we no longer look inside to find what is meaningful.

We get hooked on virality & fame of influencers online and how they are living an extremely rich lifestyle that we no longer seek that fire that kindle our hearts.

We get hooked on entertainment and pornography online so that we no longer think we need the value in the motivation that comes from within.

We continue to act like a puppet of society and getting pulled by our social media exposure.

But at the end of the day, when everything become dust again, what truly valuable is that you have lived a life of your own feelings and value.

So, look within and answer the question: what is my true success?

Does success have a formula?

Building a staircase and walk up on it.

The best metaphor to succeeding is laying bricks to build a staircase and walk up of it. The bricks are the knowledge, skillsets and mindset that we learn failing to reach a new height. Every brick is built onto one another, and bring us to the height of success.

It is an entire body of work that amount to success, day by day, brick by brick and step by step.

From having the courage to take step number 1, to being consistent until step number 100, everything must be done, and there is no shortcut.

Those who have the staircase built for them, or were born on the staircase aren't called succeeding.

To build a city, one must build a house.

The best way to envision your own success is by imagine you're building a city, building a house is the first step that amount to 0.1% of a city.

By building 50 houses, you have yourself a small town.

By building 100 houses, you have yourself medium town.

By building 500 houses, you have yourself large town.

And by building 1000 houses, you have yourself a city.

Every step is a representation of each lesson you have to learn, a town is a representation of your mastery of one aspect of your arsenal.

By knowing your own progress, you're motivated to continue walking and achieve your vision.

But the beauty of it is, once you have built a city, you will want to build a country, and by repeating every single step again. A country will be build in no time.

Not just skills, but also character.

The process isn't just about honing skills and being more capable but also about building your character, building the person that you are into someone that is worthy and capable of handling such success.

There are people out there who receive success from a young age, a success that doesn't come with character. That is how people come and go all the time... They can't handle the situation that they are in.

That is why success always come with both skill and character.
