Have you ever thought what it takes to be successful in life?
Also what is your definition of success? Do you think there are different forms or types of success?
Do you feel like you are accomplishing the goals you have set out for yourself or have you lost focus somewhere along the line?
What do you think would help you to regain your focus? How would you encourage someone else who had lost focus?

I always believe that in order for one to be successful, he/she has to have the right attitude. 
Skills can be improved and knowledge can be obtained but it is not easy to acquire attitude. Being positive and setting the right goals will help a lot. Motivation is another factor and helps maintain focus on these goals.
Instead of meeting expectations, try to exceed. This will help you grow both professionally and personally. Also, all of us are faced with moments where we just want to give up. It's like the world is on to us and we are already confused what to do. Getting past this and maintaining focus and going through this barrier, is a true test of character.

I agree with you it is not easy to be successful if you have the wrong attitude you have to maintain a good attitude the majority of the time, and try to not loose focus somethings things in your life can get to you, but you have to keep trying to overcome the things that are not good in your life, And remember that you can reach your goals and more provided you do not give up.
Thanks for taking the time to respond to this I hope you will have a great day.
