It’s a phrase I read and hear all the time. Thousands of books have been published claiming to reveal it. Celebrities and CEOs are constantly asked about it. And countless articles focus on uncovering it. But the truth is, there is no secret. In fact, becoming successful is simple. The first step is to shed light on your koraji—a Korean term I use that describes a lack of understanding and awareness of your weaknesses.

After reading my previous posts, you may have connected with what I’ve described so far. In fact, everyday, I meet people who tell me they want to experience more success in their lives. They want to earn more income, be their own boss, and have opportunities to grow. Without the right mentality, however, these aspirations are nothing more than dreams. One of the most important aspects of my work is to teach people how to snap out of their dreams and move toward goals—ones that will result in long lasting change.
