I learned about success largely by studying the biographies of successful people and listening to their conversations. At the age of 27, when I was at a difficult point in my life, reading these biographies strengthened my mind. It did not happen all at once. After studying them for about a year, I applied their plans to my life one by one and implemented them. A big goal was broken down into small parts and implemented accordingly. I felt great joy when these small goals were achieved. When I had thus prepared my good path, I walked according to my plans.
