8 Secrets of Success

Secrets to Success

Looking for the secret to success?  Aren’t we all?  Well, Richard St John boils down the secret to success in 8 words and three minutes in this video.

 Who is Richard St John?

A self-described average guy who found success doing what he loved, Richard St. John spent more than a decade researching the lessons of success.

So What Are The 8 Secrets?

John has 8 words that he thinks are the main attributes to success. The “magic” words are:

1. Passion
2. Work
3. Focus
4. Persist
5. Ideas
6. Good
7. Push
8. Serve

He goes into detail on each, and describes why they are important, how they relate and play off one another. Well worth 3 minutes of your time, in my humble opinion.

Running Time: 3:33

    Matt,

    You’re right. It was well worth the three minutes of time – and then some.

    It doesn’t get any more succinct than that!

    My kind of video right there. Simple, short and informative. I don’t have time, nor the intelectual horespower, for long and complicated!

    Have a good weekend,

    Matt

  3. I agree with all of those advices but they all could be put in just one sentence: Work hard! Hard working is something that almost always gives big benefits because it is important not what we feel but what we do. And for our clients only service they get is important. That is in my opinion the key to understanding the secret of success of many people.
