The Formula

This was an amazing week. I learned a lot of useful things. My favorite was the formula of success. I learned some stuff in the past about personal money management, how to be financially free, tips for success, etc. But the formula embraces everything. It is very Complete.
The formula is:
Wake up early.
Work Hard
Get your Education
Find your oil
Make your Mark
Get prepared to be of service.

Something interesting about the first step is that there is no successful person that is not an early riser. I was trying to do this, but I think I need to get better at doing it every day including weekends.

Education comes in different ways. Formal education and informal education. I think now I am getting the advantage of formal education, but I must not neglect what I can learn in my free time from mentors, books and other sources.

I liked to learn about how to know what my passion is. I like the concept of optimizing instead of just choosing between good and wrong options. Have the mindset that I have ten doors open for me instead of that if I pick one door, then the other 9 are going to be close.

The successful entrepreneur has skills, character and luck. The last one comes just when the entrepreneur is prepared. The better you are, the luckier you become. The reading about this principle states that successful entrepreneurs list traits and characteristics of skills and character that are not necessarily the skills that are taught in an MBA course. Entrepreneurship is about action and learning in the field.
