Does Success Leave Clues?

success, coaching

One of the questions I always asked myself about success was whether, in fact, it leaves clues.

It is a common notion in the business world that “you shouldn’t invent the wheel.”

But does this maxim also apply to success?

In our opinion, no!

We think that most people don’t understand why many people around them are successful and they are not.
