What Makes The Difference...

2 replies
Just watched the 20/20 story on the kid from the movie "The Blind Side". One of the people in the story made note of the fact that even though the family in Memphis had great effect on Michael Oher, that if 100 kids had been offered that help that 99 of them wouldnt have taken advantage of it like Oher did...

It got me thinking, what is it that is in some people that drives them to take advantage of opportunity and others not.

The parallel between this and the 99% of people that fail in business or especially online business is obvious.

What makes one person go the extra mile and another not? Is it the person who makes an impact while they are a child? Or is it that they actually listen to that person while others dont...

Wouldn't it be nice to know what exactly to be able to give your children to teach them to perservere and be the 1%... Or even your friends that you want to help out, etc...

What do you think it is?

      I read an article mentioning about it too

      I guess there are a lot of people out there who will take a risk and snap an opportunity but only a few who can make it through
      Sometimes I think it has to with luck, eventough I don't believe in luck
