When I was a kid, I just loved going on the merry-go-round at our local amusement park. I was captivated by the loud music, bright lights, colorful wooden horses and thrill of the circular motion. While the ride itself was exciting, the thing that fascinated me the most was the
brass ring that you could grab if you were lucky enough to be able to reach out and take hold of it. I would extend my little arm and reach as far as I could, but unfortunately, I was never able to reach far enough to grab the brass ring - it seemed like an impossible feat for me.

Isn't that the way we sometimes feel about this life?
Some things just seem impossible to accomplish.
But, have you ever noticed the people who seem to have figured out how to go after and have the things they want? They have a clear direction for their lives, the confidence to attain their goals, and the focused concentration and consistency to live their dreams.
What is it that sets these fortunate individuals apart from those who never seem to attain their goals? Do you ever wish you could replicate their success?
In my opinion, the key to success boils down to developing certain characteristics and habits, cultivating a successful mindset, getting the help and support you need and then working at it on a daily basis. Successful people aren't any more talented than the average person; they are just more disciplined and focused than most.
