They Exercise Incredible Drive

The most successful people I know are driven, and they push and shove until the job is done and targets are hit, and then they go again. They're able to stay focused on getting results. These folks often keep doing the hard things long after others are only doing what's comfortable.

Unsuccessful people appear to spend a lot of time in emotions and considerations that cause them to stop or settle and then rationalize how these feelings should be satisfied. They don't seem to understand that this drive mechanism is a muscle that can be developed by practicing nonconformance with society’s definitions of success.
