3 things I believe sets apart early success from failure

[Nick Seginowich]

I think what separates early success from those who fail, give up or never get started is a combination of 3 things:

1. An open mind

2. Common sense

3. A willingness to take action on what you learned

Too often people like to write off others as soon as they hear one thing they don't agree with. They listen to a podcast, read a book or talk to someone but they can't truly learn anything because they are constantly looking for what they don't agree with! "Every person that you meet knows something you don't; learn from them" - H Jackson Brown Jr. Take the life of Thomas Jefferson, we can learn a lot from his life as he did many great things but he also owned over 600 slaves in his lifetime. We can learn from others even if we don't agree with some aspect of their life or message. This is why number 2 is common sense. We need to have a common sense filter that everything we learn runs through. Having common sense allows us to determine **** from gold. Number 3 is most important because without it, success is impossible and more specifically you need to be willing to take action immediately. "The right time is always now" - Casey Neistat. If we're constantly following these 3 rules, I believe success is inevitable. 

Run this through your common sense filter and decide for yourself if it's **** or something that makes sense. If you don't agree with me don't listen, if anything in the post can help you then great!
