No Magic Spell will Make Dreams Come True, but Common Sense Might
To be consistently successful may seem magical, but it's not magic. It requires effort, commitment, discipline, and patience. The inability or unwillingness to patiently commit to the requisite effort, time, and discipline is the primary reason some fail far more often than they succeed.
Most successful people tend to be ambitious, disciplined, honest, hard working, and realistic. They readily provide reasons for their success and share credit whenever appropriate.
Many who consistently fail tend to be lackadaisical, undisciplined, disingenuous, and naive. They readily offer excuses for failing and usually blame others or circumstances beyond their control.
Except in fairy tales, there is no magic spell that will make dreams come true. If success could be achieved quickly and easily, no one would ever fail. To consistently succeed, we need only perform three basic tasks: learn what it takes, do what it takes, and be patient. It's common sense, not magic.

Very well said and about time too. I was always taught endless patience and lots of hard work were the steps required to achieve goals. Luck has nothing to do with it.
