  4. Okay Shawn, my faves this time are 3, 4, 11 and 14.

    Basically, success is hard work – all the time. When you accomplish something, therefore succeeding, it’s not as if, “Ok. I made it. Done now!” You have to keep working, keep doing what you’re doing, what you’ve done – and then doing something else too. You continue to evolve with your success; learn from it, rejoice in it and then, get back to working at it!
