“I never dreamed about success. I worked for it.” ~ Estée Lauder

Dxrzs6cV4AAGJG4

Here’s a success tip from someone that achieved high levels of success. She’s saying that dreaming of success won’t get you there all by itself. You have to have a dream, but you’ll stay a dreamer unless you back up your dream with work. Learn this lesson early on in your life and it will pay dividends all the time. If things aren’t working out the way you want them to it likely means you’re not putting in enough work to make them happen. Get a clear focus, a clear dream, a clear goal, and then follow up with focused work.

There’s a way to do it better – find it! – Thomas Edison

Of course the guy that invented the lightbulb can find a better way. His message is true though. Just because we feel the task may be too daunting, doesn’t mean it will be. Sometimes when you begin the work that must be done, you find a shortcut.
