How do we define our success? Is it because we get the big paycheck, live in a vast house, marry the hottest guy or the girl in the county, or drive the fastest car on the block?

These are certainly not measures of the success.

Building a business and the entrepreneurship requires unique talents and a love for your career. It's not about trivial things. It's about opportunity and your ability to discover your dream.

There are seven straightforward rules that you can follow to become genuinely successful.

Be passionate. And do what you love. If you don't love him, why would you do it? If we build jobs or hold on to jobs that aren't our passion, we are short-selling ourselves. He's like a technical consultant guy who wanted to be the lead singer for a band. I've written about love and jobs before, and I think the takeaway here is that if you can do that what you want to do, you'll be more creative, motivated, prepared, and likely to be highly financially and prosperous in person. Katharine Hepburn said it was the best,

If you have to support yourself, you better find an exciting way

Work hard. Never fool yourself. Success comes from challenging work. And you can find that even though you do all the heavy lifting, you feel good about that work which has been done so well. But always remember that you need to rely on the others, so make sure you surround yourself with colleagues who share the same work ethic.

I do not know anyone who made it to the top without hard work. That's the recipe. It won't always take you to the top, but it should get you close to Margaret Thatcher.

Be good, and by that, I mean well. Successful people strive for the greatness, not mediocrity. So you push yourself (and your team) to make sure you reach your ultimate potential. And be sure to celebrate your winnings, as this not only generates trust among your team, it will also keep the colleagues engaged and your clients voting. Finally, if you haven't read the book from Good to Great, get a copy of it.

James C. Collins: Greatness is not the function of circumstances. It turns out that greatness is essentially a matter of conscious choice and discipline.

To focus. Focus always makes for success, which is impossible without a clear focus on what is most important. Leaders also constantly need to remind themselves of this vital fact. The principle requires the pursuit of a mission and vision.

Jack Welch said that good business leaders create the vision, articulate it, own the idea with passion, and drive it relentlessly to the end.

Many people do not excel in the life because they are too afraid to take the necessary steps to achieve their dreams. Some show fear as a guarantee of failure; others do not even try thinking they are bound by limits, while many are preoccupied with the status quo.

Remember don't limit yourself to thinking inside the box; don't allow fear to get in your way. Today, people expect more than the average, so you need to be exceptional to gain attention and build the strong relationships with your target market. Therefore, you must provide the utmost experience when selling a product or service.

Serve. Excellence in the customer service has always been and always will be one of the critical competitive advantages of any business. Fulfilling your customers' needs will help you build a powerful and memorable brand. Be responsive, listen, and observe- you will create value. Learn from mistakes in the service.

Create ideas. Plus service: creativity, originality, and forward-thinking will ultimately drive your brand. Ambition is part of the creative process.

Like Steve Jobs, I want to put Ding into the universe.

You will always continue to innovate, especially in the competitive market. Push the envelope when it comes to thinking.

Be persistent. Business development and entrepreneurship should be built on love - and any great love requires passion and perseverance to make your dream come true. So although you will experience setbacks and failures, you will also find success and triumph.
