Unless you try to do somethingbeyond what you have already mastered, you will
never grow.- Ronald E Osborn
You probably are in a comfort zone right now: You know where your next checque comes from. Most of the time, success only came to the successful after they have been kicked out of their comfort zone and they were forced to create their own destiny.

The Ultimate Measure of Success & The ULTIMATE GOAL
What is the ultimate measure of success? What is the one thing the ultra successful spend more money on? Charity.
You know you’ve reached the pinnacle of success when you can devote a large part of your time and money on charity. Bill Gates and his wife Melinda can say they’ve reached the pinnacle. So can Warren Buffett, the world’s second richest man and best private investor. Oprah Winfrey is living the enchanted life as so many ultra successful people have been doing before her.
After devoting your life to success in a field, there is no better reward than giving back to people less fortunate. Warren Buffett has created such a successful career, that today he can give away 85% of his income every year! THIS is what I’m going to refer to as the ULTIMATE GOAL. I have decided to make it mine. Yes, I would like to own most of the things I profile in my other blog, Lifestyles of the Rich, but I would like to, at the end of my career give away in abundance. Don’t you? It’s the most rewarding expense you can make. Don’t you agree?
Let me tell you: The one secret to success is to always give. Give and you shall receive. If you have a blog or your own web site, you will know this. If you want a good ranking in Google or any other search engine, you have you have outbound links in order to get traffic. Promote someone else’s site and the favour will be retuned. Not always from the site you link to, but from places like Google. Life works the same. If you are willing to give away a small portion of your wealth to a good cause, life will reward you with so much more. Not always in the way you’d expect, but it always does.
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation are funded by the Gates family and secondary by donations from Warren Buffett. Above is a photo of Bill Gates and Warren Buffett (The world’s two richest men). The foundation supports causes such as education, HIV/ Aids, public libraries and science.
Above is a photo of Oprah Winfrey with South African children for whom she has built a new school.
I'll bet you that these three individuals derive more pleasure from making these donations than from making the billions! This is success’ ULTIMATE GOAL!

What it is all about...
Welcome to Studying Success.
“If you surround yourself with success stories, some of that success might just rub off on you!”
I do believe this is true: If you keep reading about success, you will be able to learn to identify opportunities that could lead to success. Why? Because learning what the ONE event was that changed successful people’s lives/ careers, the CATALYST event, will help you concentrate to find your own. In the blog I will share my research with the world, so that we all could go for more, more often. Read profiles of people I find to be successful and inspiring.
The blog idea was a natural progression from my other blog, Lifestyles of the Rich.
How do you become Rich? How did people become rich? Does wealth necessarily equate to success? Could you be successful and not be wealthy? How does personal growth equate into business success? These are just some of the questions I am going to try to answer.
