How I Became Successful

Updated: Jul 11


(For the directory on success, click here)


The main insight as to how I became a successful writer, without going into the personal aspect of myself, can be summarized in one sentence that every dream-seeker should remember regularly:


No one is going to care unless you give them a reason to care!


In school, I learned a very important lesson: to sit and suffer while someone else is talking and screaming. That is how you become successful in a world run by dictatorships.


What a dumb lesson to learn, since this world is mostly run by democracies and by private enterprises. However, it is important if you wish to fade into the shadows, be remembered by as little people as possible, and let someone else have all the success, attention, and appreciation that the world has to offer generously to anyone brave enough to exceed beyond the limiting dogmas often taught by socialization to keep people in line.


Give society a good reason to care by preparing yourself to experience undesired results, such as insults, mockery, and even racism at times. Once you are strong enough to accept their inevitable possibility in every endeavor, your chances of success will increase significantly.


The product you provide to the world should not only be suggested, but encouraged, in a non-forceful manner. Make them believe they have a good reason to pause their lives and dedicate themselves to the consumption of your product. Create within them the desire to be benefited from what you have to offer, and be mature enough to accept that some people may be displeased, since pleasing everyone is not always possible.


Therefore, you should make the world care about you and your product. If you do not have the willpower to do so, and face disappointments and even the possibility of pain, just as unjust, you might as well remain the same school student who suffers someone else's yells in the silence of the unconfident.
