The idea of a self-made man has always been a centerpiece of the American Dream, an identity that embodies the belief that anyone can achieve prosperity and success from even the lowest-ranking positions. One of America’s finest “self-made men” reflects this flawed ideal that fails to account for the variety of factors stacked against an individual. In his speech, “The Road to Business Success: A Talk to Young Men”, Andrew Carnegie argues that the self made man exists, and it is possible to become a successful businessman and leader through hard work. He begins his speech by arguing that all successful individuals must start in lower ranking positions, as he did. He then highlights three requirements every leading businessman must follow

Every American knows about Bill Gates, the richest man in America. His net worth alone: 79.2 billion dollars. He owns a 66,000 square foot house costing at least 123 million dollars (Stone). This is almost every person’s dream: to be successful. But what is it that made Bill Gates so successful? Is it that he is very intelligent and motivated? What did he do differently than everyone else to make him so successful? Many people believe that success comes from being very smart and very ambitious, but that's simply not all. There are many people in the world who are incredibly intelligent and have a drive to be successful who aren't worth anywhere near 79.2 billion dollars. So what makes people successful? All these misconceptions and questions are cleared up and answered in Malcolm Gladwell’s phenomenal book Outliers.

What is success? Most of you would think about a big house, luxury cars, a bedroom sized armoire and a king of an empire. You might also know some riches around the globe, who are self-made personalities. Are they really by themselves? Here is what Malcolm Gladwell thinks about success. In his book outliers: The story of success, Gladwell talks about the different tactics of success and discusses about the rules for being successful. Gladwell probes the lives of the great unwashed people, who are phenomenally more successful than others. These people are known to possess talent and intelligence, with the aim of finding out what qualities make them stand out from the crowd, Gladwell challenges our usual assumptions about

Enlightenment cannot happen without a great leader. Enlightened despotism is when there is an absolute ruler who follows the principles of the Enlightenment or at least they do in their mind. There were four world leaders that were famous for their reigns, Joseph II, Catherine II, Frederick II and Napoleon I. Between these leaders there raises a question: Who was the most effective at bringing their enlightenment ideas into practice? This paper will explain those leaders as well as define why Napoleon I was the most effective at bringing enlightenment into practice. Before the explanation of why Napoleon is the best this paper will bring to light why the others did not make the winners circle.

How does one earn the title of wealthy? Authors Dr. Thomas J. Stanley and Dr. William D. Danko have studied how people become wealthy for over twenty years. They have conducted research, written books, conducted seminars, and advised major corporations on whom the wealthy are and what are the characteristics of the affluent in America. The research for The Millionaire Next Door was comprised of personal, as well as focus group interviews, with more than 500 millionaires. A survey of 1,115 high net worth and/ or high income respondents was also compiled. The authors define the threshold for being wealthy as having a net worth of $1 million or more. This is one distinction that the authors make in comparison

A great man once said, “In order to succeed, we must first believe we can”, this great man is Gandhi. I’m not sure how many times I’ve heard I can’t finish school, I can’t go after my dream, I can’t be who I believe I need to be because people like me don’t succeed. Maybe you personally believe that, maybe someone close to you has said that to you, or maybe it’s just the statistics in the environment you’re in. No one but you knows your situation, but it’s also your choice how you want to change that. Want some examples on who prospered? How about Liz Murray, Oprah Winfrey, and Marshall Mathers III? These three people grew up in situations where they should’ve thought, “maybe I won’t be getting out of here, and maybe I can’t go to college, or become famous.” I will be talking about these three people and how they achieved their goal. How they overcame the odds that were thrown at them, and show you that you too can succeed.

Most people in today’s society define success as someone who makes a lot of money or has done something important to help form today’s society. People such as Bill Gates or Donald Trump are considered successful because they have lots of money. Even actors whose lives are wrecked and destroyed are considered successful because of the money they have. Others, like Thomas Edison, are considered successful because of accomplishments they achieved in their lives. Thomas Edison, for example, created the light bulb, so most people would consider him successful. In his book, Think & Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill gives 13 steps on how to have the right mindset, attitude, and ability to become successful.

“The million dollar question to ask yourself is this: ‘Am I ready to have it all?’ If you can honestly answer a resounding ‘Yes!’ to this question, and if you are willing to go beyond your comfort zone to get it, ‘Super Sized Success’ is yours to possess.”

Napoleon had already been marked as a prominent pig because he had a reputation of getting things his own way. By being active in the debates, he received much attention and notice from the animals. He also garnered support from those who agreed with his views but were unable to express themselves. Thus, he became a representative of these animals.

A successful leader is one that …blah…blah.... Napoleon suits into this category of a leader, therefore defining to be successful at his Domestic Policies. A person said “God made Bonaparte, and then He rested”, referring to the brilliant initial four years of Napoleon’s rule as the First Consul. His French internal achievements and reforms earned him adoration and respect from the French. Not his battles, but his renovations made him most successful inside his home country.

In this age in which we live, success is generally measured by the amount of money you earn, or the amount of wealth or power or number of promotions you’ve accumulated. I find that the older I grow, the more I view the people who are most happy and content with their lives as the most successful. Rich, poor or in between, they’ve tended to treat life as a journey, not a final destination. They took that trip when they were 25 even though they really couldn’t afford it, they ordered the $55 bottle of wine with their filet because they knew that even though it was expensive it would enhance the meal so much more than water would. They took a chance on a start-up company, moved to Europe or Asia and experienced things that most people only dream about. If they managed to grow wealthy from the experience, so much the better. As long as moderation with most things is practiced, things won’t spin out of control.
