Success Clouds Your Mind

Success Clouds Your Mind

The fleeting feeling of success is gratifying. On the dark side, it has a strong potential to cloud your mind from the truth.

  • You may feel entitled, forgetting that you are not the only ones who could achieve that.
  • You may feel overconfident, forgetting some help you received to get there.
  • You may feel smart, forgetting that you didn’t have a choice but to learn fast.

Once you attain success, don’t let it derail another success.
