WHAT AFFECTS SUCCESS THE MOST

Study of what affects success the most – not effort, not IQ, not education – 2 things came out:

1. Goal orientation – have a set, definitive goal in mind and strive for it

2. Mental toughness – the ability to address adversity, rise to the challenge in spite of circumstances

From "Mindset of Champions" by David Cook
