My dear leaders of the future:
Ten recipes for success
1. Turn hardship into blessing and failure into success
Remember George Westinghouse, whose teachers described him as a stupid, lazy student. Later, his name went down in history as one of the most creative men in human history. He refused to believe the negative opinions that had been said about him and received more than 400 patents throughout his lifetime. It was also interesting that he died while sitting on his last invention, which was a wheelchair that had an engine.

A hardship might turn into a blessing if you think in the right way and decide that the only way to survive is to excel.
2. As long as your heart beats, do not stop working. Quitting work is harmful.
Do not ever stop working because work gives your life meaning. It will be empty without work.
We need to establish a culture of making extra effort in the Arab world. Those who advance well in their careers are the ones working harder. If you look for the distinguished ones in a company or in a class, you will find that they are the ones who are exerting more effort and still regard what they do as a minimum. Excellence is to outdo yourself and remember that a person who toils during the day, has a good night sleep.
If you work more than the value of your wages, in the future you will find that your wages will be greater than the value of your work.
The French proverb says, “The world belongs to those who wake up early.”
3. Optimism brings luck. Be optimistic and you will be lucky.
You cannot achieve success without climbing the ladder of success. Frustration is a sure way to failure.
You will not be able to take any step forward when you are trapped in frustration and not trusting your abilities. No country will be able to prosper and achieve advancement if some of its people keep on sowing the seeds of frustration, look for negativities, discuss failures, and ignore positive achievements.
Only optimists achieve success.
Who believes in the future, makes the future.
4. Happiness is a decision: if you decide to be happy, you will be happy.
Happy people are more productive and make those working with them happy. Such people are happy to work with others and are problem solvers.
To be happy or not is a personal decision. You achieve happiness for yourself; no one can achieve it for you without you wanting it. It is your duty towards yourself to make yourself happy.
Smiling is the way to solve many problems and silence is the way to avoid many problems.
5. Always be a student: never stop learning.
Learning is a continuous process as long as your heart is beating, regardless of your age or level of education.
The world is changing around us every day, with a daily increase in information. Whoever wants to remain intellectually active must nourish his or her mind, the same they nourish their body. Knowledge is the food of the mind, just as food is important to the body.
The progress that humanity has witnessed through the ages would not have been possible without education, information and communication.
If you want to liberate yourself, you have to learn. If you want to achieve victory, you have to learn. If you want to achieve prosperity, you also have to learn.
6. The word retired means to die while sitting idle. Never retire!
A person feels alive when he or she engages with life. Retirement takes him or her out of life.
I reiterate that the word retired means to die while sitting idle, therefore, never stop working as long as you are alive.
Continuing to work generates good luck and reveals hidden opportunities.
7. Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.
Having a lot of enemies, competitors, opponents, and people envying you while pursuing your success is a healthy thing. In fact, their presence in our lives is one of the factors of success. We need to regard those who stalk us and wish us to fail as an aid to our success and a motive for our achievements. As they say, if there is no one that hates you, then you should know that you are not successful.
If you waste your time responding to everyone who criticizes you, you will not find the time to fulfill your objectives.
The Chinese say, forgive your enemies, but never forget their names. Having them in our memory and their staking of us will make us more careful, in order to avoid mistakes and encourage us to succeed to prevent them from gloating.
8. Look for uniqueness and leadership. Do not follow the crowd.

If you see a successful thing, do not copy it, but study it to create an even better success. There is no pride in competing with what already exists or aiming to be just like it. The real pride is in developing something more successful and better than the existing one.
Be an effective, innovative member in your team by acquiring skills and abilities that distinguish you as an more innovative person than the rest. There are no limits to innovation.
You can develop anything you see, do, or use. Technology only moves forward.
Big things start small.

Everything that the mind can conceive is achievable.
9. At school, we learn lessons and take tests
At work, we face tests, but in school, university, or in any form of self-learning, we study and sit for the exam to achieve success. In real life, you face success and failure and learn from them. When we study, we learn lessons and take tests, while at work we face tests and learn lessons from it.
How do you achieve success? In two words, right decisions.
How do you make right decisions? In one word, experience.
How do you gain experience? In two words, incorrect decisions.
10. First and foremost. Love.
Love is the most powerful weapon in the world. It spreads more than any other feeling and benefits the lover, who feels comfortable, while those who spread hatred are the first to suffer from its complications.
If you want to be lovable, be a lover.
Remember. It is better to be loved than to be important.
