Dale Carnegie, author of How To Win Friends & Influence People said this back in 1936:

"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all."

I'm amazed at how winning the lottery and being successful in real life are so similar. They both use the same skills.

Take a look at the 3 most important:

#1 - Big winners and successful people are persistent. 

There are countless examples of people who achieve success on a huge scale. And they do it through dogged persistence.

They have succeeded beyond belief simply by continuing to do what they're good at. In a lottery game, it is luck - but also persistence which eventually wins out.

#2 - Success is not that easy. 

That's because there is no one single rule. Many people who have examined the path that millionaires take have found a huge difference between the way they all earn their fortune.

Most successes are built up from a number of different skills. As actress Sophia Loren pointed out:

"Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself. That is why some people with mediocre talent, but with great inner drive, go much further than people with vastly superior talent."

#3 - Winners travel the same path: 

Along with persistence is continuity... the successful do the same thing year after year.

Benjamin Disraeli said: "The secret of success is constancy of purpose."

In lotto these are the players who play the same numbers, week after week, until luck catches up with them.
