There’s one thing that separates very successful people from the rest. This trait is rarely discussed but I think it makes all the difference.

First of all, let’s take a look at all the people who had very moderate success so far (or no success at all). Ask them why they were not as successful as they could have been? I can bet that in 99% of cases the reason for their lack of success is going to be somewhere outside. They always blame somebody or something else for what happened to them.

– Got a shitty job?

= Because market is bad!

– Not being promoted?

= Because my boss is an asshole.

– Failed on your mortgage?

= Because the economy went down.

There’s always something.

Estimating the true number of migrants that move around the world each year is a difficult task — some people cross borders illegally, and different countries’ recording and enforcement standards vary.
