Factors That Contribute To the Development of a Successful Person

The main factors that contribute to the development of an effective and successful person are ambition, determination, self-confidence, rationality and continued learning.

 

'Ambition' means the desire to do something or succeed. 'Determination' is being serious in doing something. 'Self-confidence' is believing in one's ability to win or succeed. Self-confidence provides courage to talk to people in public, to ask questions or to say 'NO' to something that is not right. 

 

To gain self-confidence, one needs patience because without patience, self-confidence may seem like rudeness.

 

'Rationality' is using logical reasoning to solve problems. The opposite of rational thinking is using superstition and its various forms like agnosticism for solving problems. Does agnosticism help one to be successful in life?

 

'Continued learning' means learning should never stop after leaving school. Success in life depends on the amount of knowledge the person has. One must, therefore, keep on learning new things in order to be more productive.
