Top 7 Most Common Qualities Found In Successful People
Success is progress that needs many different things to align in order to happen. A small proportion of successful people got there quickly or inherited something from their family. Most successful people build their personalities just so they can be capable of pursuing their dream.

Legendary Poetry
The Journey: A story about life Sometimes the journey starts with anguish. Sometimes with trepidation. Both were true as for me this time as I stood before the perilous trail before me. A sense of fear enveloped me as I considered the monumental task before me. Looking at the spectacular mountain ahead of me, I took in a deep breath and wondered if I had the courage to proceed. I had completed missions similar to this I reasoned. I will conquer this one, as well. Yet I had never faced a challenge so great as the one before me now.

To be Young and Successful
Success can be defined in many ways. It could mean that you are an individual with a steady income who has purchased your very own house when you were in your 20s or 30s, but being successful is more than that. Success should include security which assures you that you will survive if ever you lose your job. A steady income will not cover that. It will only cover your daily expenses which means future plans will be too far ahead such as travelling.

My Creative Life (Post Grad)
Howdy, I'm a member of the 2015-18 class, coming straight out of Falmouth (UK) with a BA(hons - whatever that means) in film. If you must know, I got a 2:1 and yes, it was one mark off of a first. I'm going to give a very honest re-cap of the last two years of my career in the creative industry. With the hope to calm any nerves you might have about leaving University or where you "should be" now.

I wrote a book when I was 9
A decade ago, my mother read J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy to me and my three siblings. Those books impacted me in a way that few other things in my whole life have done. Even as a kid I was able to recognize Tolkien’s work for what it was — a masterpiece. He created a whole world as real as this one. He wrote characters who stepped off the page and lived lives of their own. He painted pictures in my mind so that I was right there in the book.

Life (Pt. 1)
Life is a baby, she doesn't know how beautiful she is, and you? Happen to be in the middle of her story. From the day you remember being able to communicate, to the moments you remember being able to run so fast, the wind couldn't catch you. She's that trip and fall we have before we can even know we tripped and fell, and she's that mountain peak we called a future before we knew what a REAL mountain peak was before we had a future. Yeah, she's incredible. She makes time be still like when that first kiss gets sketched out in your bedroom. Plan all thought up, got it all figured out, practiced in front of the mirror, but when the time comes. Silence, quietly, we think, is she feeling me or not? Because I'ma start thinking about what to tell my friends already sheesh. Then it happens.

write what you know
Writing 101 Write what you know That is something I hear often so I’ll start with that. Even if this is a public platform and I’m writing so other people can read it I’d rather keep my identity a secret, even if it's for the time being. I was born and raised in Ethiopia, a country located in the horn of Africa. As such English is my second language.

Welcome to the Real World
It was 1 am, and I had just experienced my first professional rejection. I was in the middle of watching Best Scenes from Game of Thrones when I got the notification on my phone. I paused the video in haste and opened the email. As I read the lines of a literary agent’s secretary ‘unfortunately, she is unable to offer you representation at this time,’ I felt my stomach sink and my chest tighten. I felt dejected and disappointed; disheartened. I thought, how am I going to sleep after this?
