Success comes most often in life when you are ready for it; now, that means when you are really ready, which is not always when you think you are ready. Barnes’ success came at that point in time when he was really ready, after he had taken steps to situate himself in the path of success.
“Psychologists have noted, accurately, that when a person is truly ready for something, it will appear.
“Edwin Barnes was ready for a business association with Edison; moreover, he was determined to stay ready until he got what he was after.
“He did not say to himself, “Ah, what’s the use? Maybe I should just try to get a salesman’s job.” But, he did say, “I came here to go into business with Thomas Edison, and I will be his business partner if it takes the rest of my life.” And He meant it! What a different story all people would have to tell if only they would adopt a definite purpose, and stand by that purpose until it had time to become an all-consuming, yet powerful, obsession!
“Maybe young Barnes did not know it at the time, but his bulldog determination, his persistence in maintaining and focusing on a single desire, destined him to mow down all opposition, and bring him the opportunity he was seeking.”

Hi Shaun, I was wondering if I might be able to catch up with you in Bunbury in the near future.
Hi John
Send me an email with some details and we can go from there. We might catch up for a coffee.
It’s true! I do agree with you.
Now it does prove that ‘where there is a will there is a way’.
Thanks for the informative post.
You’re welcome, Eugene. Thanks!
Hi Sean,
I love the bit where you say Barnes situated himself in the path of success. Sometimes I’m not sure if I’m doing all the right things to become successful but I feel that by being part of your forum, reading your books and applying the things that I learn from you and your team, that I am putting myself in the path of success and hopefully, as a result, the work that I do will be successful.
