Good grief. I'm tired of seeing stories, books, etc. about "what successful people do" and similar. I couldn't help but post after seeing this title.<p>You know what successful people do? They use their brains to figure stuff out and they take some action. It's not complicated or mysterious.<p>You know what successful people don't do? Sit around reading articles about what successful people do.<p>The very idea of offering up some tips to success based on observations of someone else's success is ridiculous. Among other things, it propagates this myth that there is some unitary standard of success to which we should all aspire. And, it says that the reader in need of such tips is obviously a loser for needing to emulate someone else's success vs. being intrinsically able to create her own.<p>Just use your head and work. You have everything you need to create your own success, by whatever measure you prefer.
