Richard St John’s presentation from from TED is quite inspiring. Can success really be that simple?
The video inpired me to design a graphic that represents not only the various aspects of success but also offers my insight into how the elements that make up success lead to each other. Click the graphic below to see it enlarged.
In my experience I’ve found his words to be true. How about you? Are there other important attributes to becoming successful?

You may certainly use this graphic. If you don’t mind, just give me attribution when you use it. Thanks!
I’m getting ready to teach a class called Skills for Success for aspiring high school students. I was wondering if you would allow me to talk about your success wheel and post it on my class webpage.
Andrew,
Absolutely. You should also be sure to credit Richard St. John, as the wheel is based on his research and theories.
