Success Is a Function Of?

"Sucess= Skill * Action"- Matt Morris

The other day I was listening to a program that Matt Morris has and he used this sentence.  I immediately fell in love with it and knew a post had to be written.  So let us break it down.

Success is a function of skill and action.  That makes sense. 

The first part of the formula is Skill.  Once you have identified the area in which you want success then you have to be honest with yourself to pick up the skills needed tor success.  How do you go about identifying the skills you will need?  Well, you can always poll experts around you for the quickest result.  But once you have identified the skills it is up to you to get them ASAP.

But as the equation tells us Skills need to be complimented with Action.  Skills are internal understanding of the science of the area you are trying to be successful in.  But without Action you will not see results.  I am an expert in many subject areas that I do not apply.  I know a lot about them but I do not apply them in my life.  

So the combination of Skills and Action is where the magic occurs.  If you can raise your level to at least a 8 or a 9 in each of them you will not only be very skilled BUT you will be applying that knowledge at a high level.  The ultimate result has to be success.

Today's question is:
"What are your Skill and Action levels in your area you want to be successful in?"
