Weights & Measures
The world measures success differently than I.
You'll never be successful if you try to measure up to standards set by someone else.
You have to set standards for yourself. And you need to raise those standards constantly. Why should these standards be raised? Otherwise you will stagnate. Life will become a monotonous ruinous routine. You will get into a comfort zone and rot. Still water may run deep but it also breeds disease spreading musquitos.
KAIZEN - a little improvement everyday. Easier said than done because it is not easy to stick to a plan. Why is not easy to stick to a plan? There is so much that happens around you that you miss when you stick to a plan. Your friends go out without you, there is a fantastic movie that gets released, someone gets married, it rains, there is a nice music video on TV, there is a play to act in.
Never lose sight of your goals.
If the goals are blurred then perhaps they have been defined too broadly. Have specific goals and work towards it. Do what it takes to achieve them even if it antagonising everyone you care about. Chances are, if they really care about you they will understand.
Keep the faith. Be brave. Be ruthlessly disciplined.
