Maybe we haven't been properly educated in the game of success. And the truth about high achievement and success is that it occurs on purpose, by design, through the tremendous commitment and persistence of individuals who have chosen the harder path. The first component, hard work, is an unavoidable component in success.

We'd been in business with people and developed friendships, celebrating their successes and having them celebrate ours. Before, celebrating success on a team meant if someone on our team, or related to our team, won. We were just as thrilled and delighted for the successes of other leaders of other teams as we were for our own.

You see, I contend that part of what was amiss with Steve Jobs in his first run-up to success was that he didn't understand the nature of his own genius. But along the way he did a few things correctly, which morphed into his eventual success and return to the top. He thought he was in the business of making and selling computers.

Fear of success or failure. Procrastination is not an excuse, it is an action taken because of your excuse. Although some people may avoid their destiny be "getting to it later", I feel that it can be fear holding them back. What if our calling is not a popular one? I think the most elusive here would be your last point.
