The portrait of a successful person

We all watched in awe last month as Michael Phelps and Usain Bolt swept the medals at the Beijing 2008.

A study of 120 of the world's top artists, atheletes, and scholars concluded that drive and determination, not great natual talent, led to their extraordinary success.

This, I believe is the meaningful definition of a successful person: one who has an inspiring dream or goal and moves towards it.

How many wealthy but agonizingly unhappy people do you know or have read about in your life?

Successful people aren't born with better genes, or blessed with better looks. Successful people are engaged in doing something about what they want to make happen in their lives.
