How many people really become successful in a very short period of time?

Success is yours, not someone else’s to decide. If for you success is to get bread on the table both times, you can be successful over night. If your aim is to reach the moon as a commerce graduate, you might never be.

Answering your question, there is no one in this whole world who has seen success in a short period of time. Open the web and search the most successful people and you would see that one trait of everyone is patience.

Successful people are patient and that patience compounds with time to help them achieve success. This time is not a small, this is a big lapse. You have to sacrifice, work hard, fail, standup, fall, and still stay firm on the ground.

There are examples where people have been successful in short time, but their success were short lived. You can see the examples in that domain too.

But the one thing that stay constant is success is not what you achieve but how you preserve it. Success has a lot of advantages and one major disadvantage that no one talks about. If you cannot handle success well, you start going downhill before you know it.

See the examples, Mr. Tata, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Mr. Ambani and so many other successful people, are always very down-to-earth and have less demands from the crowd. Yes the examples can differ from industry to industry but the ones that I told you are the people who are the richest yet have simplicity as a factor to their well-being.

Therefore, I feel that there is no successful person in my view who have achieved success over a short time.
