1. Work Hard 2. Find what you like - the hard part 3. Keep learning

Absolutely in Life the Hardest part of being successful in life is to figure out what your'e good at naturally.

[@kawa1755]

I think it is more of what you enjoy to do. You see everyone builds skill in areas that they enjoy because they will do those things without being paid. Money is just a bonus.

Sh*t... The dude never stops learning!

[@belingonza318]

He's right about immigrants. Come here with nothing and learn what what you can to improve your life.

[@JazminBautista]

Belin Gonza i agree but most of the time the kids of those immigrants are the ones who take advantage of being there

[@alainportant6412]

Better yet. Stay home, learn something and apply for immigration when you have something to offer, otherwise shut up.

One of my favorite people to listen to. Everyone always talks about the hard work, innovation, decision making, learning, and people skills that lead to success. What no one ever talks about is the shady stuff that brought success. The bribes, lawyers, pr firms, extortion, screwing employees, lies, and other stuff that directly affects cash flow that brought success. If there’s one person who would be honest about that though it’s Cuban.

[@NuttedInYoMom]

A Business does NOT have to be run in a shady/scam way to be Successful. You can have a Successful business while being totally upfront, honest, and good Morally. If it ever grows to a HUGE company, chances are that you might hire on some bad apples, but nevertheless you and your Company as a Whole WONT be shady. You should start your own business and Not continue waiting twiddling your thumbs, or the years will pass you by getting you Nowhere Great in life.

[@twopeoplepointingtogod824]

The hard part isnt finding your gift the hard part is....not getting caught up in wanting what this man has. Mark is successful because he loves what he does. He doesnt love the money. Do what you love.

To become successful, you must be able to satisfy a critical requirement: You must have something people are willing to pay you well to do.

Motivation shouldnt be the cause of ur action, it should be the biproduct, if motivation is the cause of ur action then you will have to wait until your motivated to do something.

[@EvanEvansE3]

You've got to become amazing at something. That's it. That's the secret to success. The reason is human beings in general become more efficient at everything every passing year and that's what causes inflation. The difference nowadays between getting a general education vs a specialized education has become astronomical to the point now where a general education cannot even give someone the productivity in society to beat inflation. So they are becoming poverty class. You MUST get a specialized education. And as Mark says, you need to learn about something you want to become amazing at. He was learning while most people were just being consumers. He was nurturing his ability to be a producer in society.

[@tomsecret9680]

This is true. Although I will say that in today's times you can get tremendous information from KZbin, Google, etc. It's a matter of using the internet for learning, not wasting. Perhaps the internet can be even more informative than books, if used correctly.
