What causes Success?

I came across this quote today and it really struck a chord with me. I hope it is encouraging to you also…

“I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” - Michael Jordan

It reminds me that most of the people who succeed in the world are not necessarily the ones who start out the smartest, or richest, or luckiest. More often, the people who succeed are the ones who just keep trying.
