Success...

What is the key to success?

Could you put it into words?

Is it luck?

Fate? Contacts? Friends? Fortitude? Perseverance?

What is it exactly?

I've got my own ideas about this and I'd like to share them today. This, of course, is not just about theatre. This is about everything but theatre certainly falls under this category.

Here it is: Hard Work.

Disappointed? Hoping for a "get rich quick" scheme? I'm sorry, but there's just no such thing. That certainly is luck.

There is no replacement for hard work and there never will be. If someone hasn't done the work then there's simply nothing that can be done to improve the situation. What's worse is that not doing the work doesn't do anything good for you. Not only do you fail other people but you ultimately fail yourself.

Letting yourself down is not a good thing to do very often.

So... do yourself a favor: Work Hard.

At the end of the day you'll feel better, you'll have achieved something, and you'll get to where you're going faster.

No hard work = no success.
