In my travels, I have met a lot of people… some successful and some not so successful.

I know the definition of success varies from person to person, but the purpose of this post is really more about identifying the one thing that makes a person more successful than another.

And the answer is… NOTHING. But let me explain.

Successful people are always doing something… thinking about their next step or next idea. Maybe thinking about how to get a promotion at work. Maybe thinking about going back to school to get their graduate degree. The point is that they are doing something.

And the not so successful people are doing, well, nothing.

And that is the difference… doing something vs. doing nothing.
