“We are all self-made, but only the successful will admit it”
— Earl Nightingale
Simplified Meaning:
Everyone shapes their own life through the choices they make and the actions they take. When things go well, people who succeed recognize that their hard work, decisions, and perseverance led to their success. For example, a person who works tirelessly to build a business from scratch is aware that their dedication and effort have a lot to do with their achievements. However, when people don't reach their goals, they might blame luck or external things instead of admitting their own part in it. If you want to achieve something, it's important to take responsibility for your efforts and outcomes. By doing so, you can learn from both your successes and your mistakes, and keep improving.
