I have always wondered and asked myself, what makes someone a successful man or woman? I never seem to get the answer to the question as success is a journey and never a destination. If Success is treated as a destination does it mean, once attained it can never be taken away?

Obviously, I don't think so. Someone who is successful today can end up being somewhere else tomorrow. So it is a constant flow, movement, and never-ending journey. We have to keep thriving to stay in the direction and not drift away. Yeah, some people are far into the journey of success that no matter how they relax, they still maintain in the lane which is because of how much they have worked to achieve what they had.
WHAT IS THE THEORY BEHIND SUCCESS?
For someone to be in the direction of success, we must say that the person in some way, has put effort into attaining it. Meaning that he/she must have been ready before such opportunities come their way.
This quote is very true because one cannot properly utilize an opportunity without being prepared for it. It is almost similar to being prepared for battle before the war starts. So when the war begins, the most prepared counterpart wins the war. That's a typical example of being successful!

HOW DO YOU RELATE THIS TO YOUR LIFE?
Look into your life and think of an opportunity you have missed. It would mostly be because you lack a thing or two which must have prevented you from nesting that opportunity. It happens to everyone including me where I see opportunities flying around and yet, I am not capable of holding on to one.
I am sure by now, your mind would be relating to the quote by Ziglar. You can't nest an opportunity if you are not rightly prepared for it. The same way as you not being able to win a war without preparing for it.
Then, What is the solution to this problem of not nesting an opportunity?

I am sure the first word that comes to your mind is: Adequate Preparation. Yeah, that is very correct, how does one adequately prepare for opportunities?

Yeah, it is very simple. For one to Adequately Prepare for opportunities, one needs to SKILL UP. Skilling Up is the best way to get yourself prepared for any opportunity that comes by. Make sure you have the necessary qualification that is needed in the market because when such a skill is needed, it would not alarmingly come by.
I would probably not depend on luck for anything because one is thereby playing a gamble. For me, Luck only exists in the imagination of fools! Fools that believe there is no need to be adequately prepared and one jackpot would come all the way to them while they do nothing to attain it.
