Don’t give up.
from Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell
These are the two key personality traits that differentiate a successful person from a non-successful one. Effort and hard work are absolutely instrumental to success.
How to Apply This
-
Keep trying when faced with obstacles.
Try for as long as it takes to understand a problem and solve it. -
Have a positive attitude and put in the effort to succeed.
If you want to be good at something, and you really do try your best, you will be good at it. If you give up halfway and ask others to bail you out, then you won’t be good at it.
