I can't pick one thing off thespot that easily as I'm sureI'm forgetting something,but one of the things isdefinitely just about beingconsistent. Playing to your
highest value and doing itover and over again. Usingblogging as an example,nobody builds a huge blogfrom 1 amazing post. Butthey do from 10 or 20 or 50 or1,000.

Being an editor at heart.It is never done and it
will never be perfectand thats okay. Ive
never believed there isonly one road or onedoor to success. You
have to be willing to gowhere the road takes youand make the most of it.Thats the hallmark of atrue entrepreneur. That,
and luck. I neverunderestimate the power
of sheer luck when itcomes to success. And,if you are lucky enough,
you have a responsibilityto give back.

Helping other people in myview is one of the most
successful ventures that onecan ever undertake. My
readers, through my blog,receive the overflow of my
own personal search onpersonal development. As
part of my success it is in mynature to not keep my
discoveries to myself - but toin fact share everything thatI learn with those who have
been brought across mypath.
Keys to success?
Consistency. Positivity.Determination. Practice
through the continual crafting of my skill of communication. I write at least 6days a week - in one form or another. And also by opening up on opportunity
for other burgeoning writers and introducing them, through the platform of myblog, to my global audience.

It's the "relentless pursuit" ofanything.
When you relentlessly pursuitsomething, you transform theproblem, and yourself in the
process.If I were to break that down
further, it really comes down tothree things:
1. Work a problem that youcare about deeply that impactsother people. This amplifiesyour impact and lights your
contribution on fire. Impactingother people will keep you
going.2. Don't start from scratch.
Find models and examples to learn from. ("Stand on the shoulders ofgiants.")
3. Learn and improve. Stay relentless in your effort, and use feedback to shapeyour efforts. Use your toughest critics for your most insightful feedback.If you aren't working a problem that makes your soul sing, then dig deeper.

Sink into uncertainty.Success, to me, is not a
destination but aconstant process. To
me, how I pursuesomething matters just
as much as the endresult/s I'm going for.
Oftentimes the endresults are a surpriseanyway! Stick with it,
whatever you aredoing. Focus on how
you can be mosthelpful to others and allelse will follow. When
you're unsure of whereto go next, lean in. Get
quiet. Give yourselftime to figure thingsout. And just keep
putting one foot infront of the other.

The secret to beingsuccessful is to focus onbeing as useful and helpful toothers as possible, withoutany expectation of anythingin return. When you change
your approach from "whatcan I get from others?" to"what can I give to others?"
you will find much greatersuccess.
I have been very fortunate - Ihad the greater opportunityto work as a Writer in the
Clinton White House at age23, to work for Steven
Spielberg's movie studio,DreamWorks, SKG, and as aspeechwriter to the Governorof California, and now to own
my own business helpingentrepreneurs to achieve their dreams. I think the reason I've been successful
is because I've always focused on trying to help others in any way I can first,and to worry about what benefits I can get for myself later. So my advice to
others is to look at your own skills and abilities and ask how you can be mostuseful to the people you know already, and to focus on that. If you use that
approach, you'll find great success.

Fail fast and fail often! Thebest way to success is to
get so many failures out ofyour system and try so
many different possibilitiesthat you have essentially
eliminated all the badoptions, and success is theonly option! If you thinksuccess is a road paved
with gold and no problems,then you are in for a major
disappointment. Justaccept it, and dive in. Myphilosophy in life is to
make at least 200 mistakesa day, and it's been
working pretty well for meso for!

The secret is really thatthere is no secret. I've
painstakingly built my blogaudience one by one, onestep at a time, through athousand different steps
along the way. Each step,fromwriting press releases,to appearing on the media,to writing guest posts, to
sharing my best content, toopening up on the most
intimate details of my life,have all contributed to
building my blog to where itis today.
If you were to ask me tonarrow down the one thing that has been most instrumental to building my
blog though, I would say it has to be putting my best content out there to helpothers to grow. I have never held back on sharing my personal vulnerabilities,
insecurities, and issues, ranging from growing up in an angry household, tohaving a poor body image in the past, to being insecure of my looks before.While others may be petrified at letting people know about their problems, I
don't as I believe my problems serve as important learning lessons for others togrow. This is also the reason why readers return to my blog again and again, as
it's where they get an authentic sharing and earnest voice speaking to them.
For those serious about building a successful blog, I have created a six-weekBlogging Success Programafter much request from my readers, where Ishare my best strategies on how I built my audience from 0 to over a million

I think embracing yourcuriosity and allowing it toguide your work and playand everything in between
is one of our great untappedsources of energy. It's
something we have whenwe're young, but we lose
over the years. And thoughit's possible to get it back,it's tougher the older andmore removed from it we
get.
This is something that'salways guided me, and Iwould encourage anyone
who's feeling stuck orunderachieving or
uninspired to chase thethings that make their jaws
drop and eyes go wide with wonder. Without that kind of propellant, it can beexhausting and incredibly difficult to build up the momentum you need to do
what needs to be done.

The Secrets to my Success:
For most of my early life, Ipursued a version of
success that wasn't me.Material things,
recognition, and job titlesonly mattered. But it
occurred to me that successis just a word until we applymeaning, and that meaningis incredibly and uniquelyindividual. It wasn't until I
realized what wasimportant to me, such as
having a loving relationshipwith my beloved Emily,becoming a father, and
helping others that I caredeeply about, that I can truly say I found success. Material things, popularity,
and job titles can make life fun but they're hollow and fleeting. Getting in
rapport with myself and pursuing that which is most uniquely me is my truesecret to success.

This is a big questionbecause I'm not sure there
is one secret. I guess myadvice for people would beto stop searching for themagic bullet or formulabecause it doesn't' exist.I've spent almost 4 yearsbuilding BlogcastFM. Ithasn't come without itsstruggles. I've made lessmoney than many of my
peers. I've made sacrificesthat other people wouldn't.But I've never stoppedbelieving in the value ofwhat I do.
At the end of the day it's allabout creating value. If people who come in contact with you are made betteroff for having been a part of your journey, you win. That's the best possible
way to measure your success. So I guess you could say the secret of success isthat making an impact is my number one motive.

That writing and personaldevelopment are still two
things that are exciting anda lot of fun year after year
for me. They are passions ofmine and they energize me
week after week.
And on the occasions when
I do feel unmotivated to
take action I just remember
to take one very small stepforward. That is all I need
to do. And then, after that
first step, I take another
small step forward and
another. This helps me to
get going again and to
avoid getting stuck in
procrastination for too long.

I think the greatest secret
behind my success is my
tenacity. When I was still
new to blogging, I blogged
for almost a year before
making a cent from my blog
and during this period I
spent an average of 810
hours working on my blog
and learning how things
work. I think what helpedme succeed isn't what I
know, but my
determination not to give
up even when things
weren't going my way.

The biggest secret to the
success of Location 180 ispretty simple: I never gave
up. Starting a blog,website, or business is adifficult thing. It usually
takes months if not a coupleyears to gain significanttraction and most peopledon't have the patience.They don't see the quick
results they were hoping forand give up before things
take off.
Over the last 4 years I'vewritten close to 400 posts on
Location 180. I've hadplenty of ups and downs,but I always kept writing
and kept pursuing my goalof working for myself. Idon't know if you can call that a secret, but it's the reason I'm able to keep

If We Havent Met Before..
Im a writer, author and blogging
addict and a proud founder ofThe
Savvy IndieandFree Life Pursuit
among many successful and
unsuccessful blogs online.
I have always been an entrepreneur
right since my university day with aknack for online marketing having tried
lot of things, many of which failed and
I moved on while some have been
hugely rewarding and successfulsuch
is just the life of not giving up on what
you want and love.
I have a Bachelors Degree in
Computer Science but I hardly count it
as anything worthwhile because I only
spend 5 years in the university but with
no business at all been in school at the
first place. If you ask -me, School sucks
and I wish Im a dropout! Just dont
let my Mum hear that.lol
Rather than going to school to waste
my time and money with lots of energy
studying what I have never find any
use for after leaving school in 2008,I
opt to live a life of my own, a life of
chasing freedom, fun and fulfillment
