I always ask myself, what does it take to be a great writer? I also wonder if I have the right technique or style. Maybe I choose the wrong topics and maybe they are not really what readers want to read at all. But perhaps I need to accept Lady Gaga’s advice:-

“I used to walk down the street like I was a fucking star… I want people to walk around delusional about how great they can be — and then to fight so hard for it every day that the lie becomes the truth.”
― Lady Gaga

What do you need to be successful then? And are you willing to fight for it every day so that it becomes a reality?

So whether you’re a startup founder, a new parent or just a struggling writer like me, you just have to keep to the formulas the super successful people used, and build the following 7 pillars for success.

1. Write down your lifetime goals

Write them down because it can help us. These are the BIG goals and then we should also try to list some intermediate goals to achieve along the way. These are not set in stone and many will be torn up and rewritten!
