How to bet on a winning horse?


         You may be brilliant, but that does not guarantee success. You cannot make success happen. You have to go and find it yourself In the race to the top, there is no use becoming a job-hopping butterfly--flitting from one firm to another. When your present job becomes a source of a terminal case of acute boredom, you need to pause for a while and take the call.
        if you always do what you have always done, you will only get what you have always got; nothing more and nothing less.  Failures do not matter. All you really need for a long, successful career is one winning horse. Buttering the boss is the easiest way to reach the summit, but you need to do identify the boss who has the ability to pull you up. This is where most people fail. It is like this: a husband is one who is able to fulfill all the desires of his wife; a wife is one who is able to find such a husband
 Success marries those who seize opportunities at the right moment Keep your antennae wide open so that you catch the signals and take the baby steps forward. Well, if you want to get to the top, be smart like a cat, and act like a dog.   Bosses love to hire the clones. If you want to move to a big corporation, you have to make friends, not waves.

 For getting noticed, your job skills are secondary. Monkeys and donkeys of the world get peanuts; only the smart horses outrun competition; now you got it right, you need to be a political animal to outwit others' success in the classroom, and success in the boardroom seems to have little to do with each other.  In the dairy, the cream rises to the top. In real life, it is generally not true.  When what you are doing is not working, you must do something different Time to pick up the copy of Horse Sense? Even after 25 years, the magic of A L Ries and Jack Trout--my favorite authors----still works
