Have you ever wondered how they manage that? Is it because they came from good, nurturing and loving families, had a privileged education, or simply inherited their wealth? Is it because they had all the &#8220;good breaks&#8221; in life? Even if you think not, do you secretly harbour thoughts to that effect? If so, time to straighten out your thinking!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Consider the eagle in the short video. Even a raptor wonderfully designed to catch its prey has challenges in life. It does not &#8220;score&#8221; on each try! The eagle has to work hard in order to get its food, and it has all the &#8220;technology&#8221; already inbuilt! The hare also has &#8220;inbuilt technology&#8221; &#8211; camouflage, speed and agility. The hare has to work hard to stay alive, too!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elijahconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Successful-Girl.jpg?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"5688\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/elijahconsulting.com\/do-successful-people-have-it-easy\/successful-girl\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elijahconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Successful-Girl.jpg?fit=564%2C847&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"564,847\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Successful Girl\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elijahconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Successful-Girl.jpg?fit=199%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elijahconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Successful-Girl.jpg?fit=564%2C847&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-5688\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elijahconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Successful-Girl.jpg?resize=150%2C150&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Successful Girl\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elijahconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Successful-Girl.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elijahconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Successful-Girl.jpg?zoom=2&amp;resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elijahconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Successful-Girl.jpg?zoom=3&amp;resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>So, stop looking enviously at people who are successful.
