How To Increase Your Chances of Winning The Lotto
I received a text message from my mother recently. She said that the Chinese New Year is near and my Feng Shui horoscope says that I’m going to be very lucky financially in the coming Year of The Rat. I’m not a superstitious person and I always take such predictions with a grain of salt, but...
How Being Stubborn Can Make You Rich
When a person is being stubborn, it usually means that he or she is being difficult or unreasonable. Stubborn people are often thought of as lazy bums. They’re hard to manage; and even harder to make them do anything aside from the things they like. However, the dictionary gives the word “stubborn” a definition which I find...
Believe In Your Success
The holidays are over and it’s time to face the new year ahead. Thinking back – if I would take just one lesson I learned last year to guide me this year, I’d choose the power of believing. Believing that I can do whatever I put my mind into, that my dreams are always just within my...

I definitely agree with your admonition to keep trying. However, sometimes the best course of action is to quit BUT only for the right reasons. “The Dip” by Seth Godin is a great book that talks about what the right reasons are for quitting something (i.e. getting discouraged, feeling lazy, etc. are NEVER good reasons to quit something but given that one only has a limited amount of time/money and therefore has to choose what to do/not do then it is often a great choice to quit something after careful analysis and if quitting for the right reasons).
Nice post! People who are only working 9 hours a day have to STOP complaining and just work more b/c there are 24 hrs in a day!
I also believe Education is key.
hi…nice posting
i also agree to your point on never giving up and also with your propose calculation regarding making mistakes in business or in personal discussion means to increase the number of exposure.
having been in business always has been a great and humbling experience,though i would’nt claim my self to be successful yet, being persistent has always been a key to me.
competition, market slow down, financial support and quality of the product to name a few are the problems in making, starting and even sustaining a business. if giving up easily is one of your character then i guess you are not incline in a business setting.
with the number of struggles that you have tackle, this also increases the chances of success either o business or on personal. since education in life and business are only learned in real situations.
keep on posting…thanks

Interesting, but the short formula as presented would be OK for rolling dice or flipping a coin. In matters of success in life or business. Formula for SUCCESS is far more complex and would have to account for series of variables at play.
To illustrate my point lightly, the computer game “SPIDER” a simply card set at medium level heart and spade to win should be fairly easy, however the numerous variables reduces the chance of winning.
The same elements occurs in real life, therefore the formula result throughout would be little more than 0.5% of success. Unless the variables are realigned “stack in ones favor”.
Have a pleasant day

Hi Tony, thanks for pointing that out. What you said is true. There are indeed numerous variables in play when it comes to life and business, making the formula above too simplistic.
However, despite the gap, I believe what’s important is that the probability for success still comes up higher with more tries.
And in the end, what really matters is that you don’t get discouraged and keep on trying until you succeed.
Cheers!
Oh Fitz
This was truly awesome!
Amazing! I am staying up at night here – just to read your thoughts, because honestly, there is no way i could have interpreted those numbers and that equation!
Napaka matalino ka (I hope my tagalog is right, i have just started learning)!
Anyway,
thanks for sharing your wisdom
Tom.
