In 1940, Albert Gray discovered and revealed that the Common Denominator of Success, lies in the fact that he formed the habit of doing things failures don’t like to do.
Don’t get me wrong, successful people do not like to do some of these things but suck up and do anyway and achieve the result they want.
Another Common Denominator of Success is finding the good in all things that happen. Everyone encounters both negative and positive influences. It works by converting every negative influence into a positive direction. Successful people have a habit of making “Lemonade out of Lemons.” They developed the habit and mindset that all that comes our way is energy. There is positive energy, and there is negative energy. Successful people convert ALL energy into positive voltage.”
This is a powerful concept that all can benefit from.
How about some real-life examples?
Author J.K. Rowling was rejected by dozens of publishers -- but refused to accept defeat, kept hammering away, and finally found one to launch “Harry Potter”.
Colonel Sanders, in his 60s, was turned away by more than 1000 restaurant owners, yet maintained his resilience. Finally, one agreed to let him cook his chicken and share the profits… which not long after, led him to create the Kentucky Fried Chicken chain.
Tyler Perry’s rough early years included child abuse, getting kicked out of school, and two suicide attempts. But he turned the corner and later wrote, produced, and starred in his own stage production. It failed miserably. Still, he never quit… and 6 agonizing years later it was a huge success… and launched his now-stellar acting, TV, movie, and film production career.
Rowling, Sanders, Perry were confronted with many obstacles but never lost faith.
