I do not think you can find massive success without been prepared to be uncomfortable for a while. Becoming massively successful would in most cases require stepping out of our comfort zones.
Like I have said over and over and over again:
“Get out of your comfort zones! Nothing interesting happens there!”
If you are going to enjoy massive success, you must be ready to do the ground work required, dreaming alone will not take you there. In many cases, you have to work for long hard years, building a solid base so that you can then become an overnight success.
The world, the media focusses on the meteoric rise of 2-3 years, forgetting the fact that you have been at work for decades, trying to get it right.
Here is what Aliko Dangote, who needs no introduction had to say about his massive success:
“I built a conglomerate and emerged the richest black man in the world in 2008 but it didn’t happen overnight. It took me thirty years to get to where I am today. Youths of today aspire to be like me but they want to achieve it overnight. It’s not going to work. To build a successful business, you must start small and dream big. In the journey of entrepreneurship, tenacity of purpose is supreme.”
If you are going to be very successful, you need to start finding out the right steps you need to take and begin to take them, no matter how uncomfortable they may be.
You do not become great by taking things easy.
