Basically, the number one rule I have learned when it comes to organizing for your own success is that you have to be able to work and know how to do it! It comes with focusing on any goal you desire. It's really that simplistic at its core.
I now realize that hard work is a very essential component to finding one's own success. It's sometimes going to feel like a drag because of having an off day, but as long as you can remind yourself, it's what you want to do then that's really the most important thing.
