How To Be Successful?
We all want to be successful, either in pursuing our personal or work goals. And being successful is often associated with giving up these aspects of our lives that make part of who we are. We are often said that we won’t succeed unless we sacrifice happiness, love, or money. But a road to success doesn’t have to look that way. Of course, sometimes we have to give up one thing for the sake of something better but it’s not always the case.
The other day I came across the article by Justin Barison on Jeff Bezos’ 3 steps to achieve success. And I thought that if everyone followed these steps, we would all undoubtedly achieve success, especially at work. However, these 3 steps, which I will call secrets, were not shared directly by Jeff Bezos, but they were drawn out of the statement made by him:
“Success is going to require talented experts, a beginner’s mind, and a long-term orientation.”
Jeff Bezos is the founder and CEO of Amazon, one of the most successful online retailer in the world. No wonder Bezos accomplished such success taking into account his secrets.

Being open to new things is the second secret to high achievements at work. But it doesn’t necessarily mean you are to accept everything. It’s about learning new things.

Success comes slow and the road to it is long and full of obstacles. But don’t give up and be persistent. Then, you will definitely achieve success at work and not only.
