WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS? Some people tell you it?s through motivation. Visualize, believe, need, and desire a result and it will come true. Others say you need a system. Trust the process, and over time you?ll eventually arrive at the right destination. Other people say their results are the product of great coaching. Find a mentor or a guide, and they will get you there. Each of these perspectives holds a portion of truth but miss the bigger picture.
