5 Characteristics of a Successful Person

    To describe only five characteristics of a successful person may be difficult. Successful people could display similar characteristics, but could just as easily portray very different traits. This could depend on the field in which the person is successful or even the definition of success according to that individual. In an attempt to define success by common standards, I see the following characteristics to be necessarily present:
 
1. Faith: One must have faith in himself, in what he is trying to attain, and in his ability to know that his best will be enough. Without faith in knowing one's 'all' is enough, success will never be imminent.
 
2.Confidence: The most successful people are often the most confident. How good one thinks he is may be even more important than how good one actually is.
 
3.Passion: A burning desire eats at the heart of the champion to be the absolute best. Every minute of every day it is there. He does not try to suppress it; he only kindles it.
 
4.Delusion: The belief that reality does not apply to oneself; especially apparent in great athletes, it is also there in all highly successful people. Even when one is failing miserably, he still believes he is one step away from his greatest success. It is the lost trait in a society where one in taught to be practical and sensible.
 
5.Happiness: The successful person is not ever content, yet can never imagine another way of life, for his is the best!
