Singer Beyonce Does Needlepoint, Plays Computer Games. Really?

Does Grammy performer singer Beyonce spend hours crafting her own needlepoint patterns? Or spend hours at night playing computer games?

I think you know the answer. No. Beyonce is the incredible success she is because she focuses completely on her singing.

If she were a lottery player, she would select just one game, buy the PRO custom profiles for it, then settle down to play consistently and win the largest sum of money anyone has ever seen.

Every successful person I have read or studied shows this common factor of complete and absolute focus. Very few diversify their talents.

As the old expression goes, they stick to their knitting...they concentrate on their talent and do that to the exclusion of everything else.

It's the same with the lottery.

If you truly want to get ahead, you must follow the star's example. Celebrities immerse themselves in the one task that will bring them success and everything else is forgotten.

Many successful people downplay the amount of work they put into their talents, but in most cases it is considerable.

Golfer Tiger Woods has often been seen practicing early mornings and late at nights during competition.

Football great Peyton Mannings regularly showed up to practice at 4am.

NBA legend Michael Jordan spent his off seasons taking hundreds of jump shots a day.

When you feel like giving up, remember that super-successful people in every field are often said to be lucky. But the truth is, many of these have worked harder than the average person can even imagine.

Winning the lottery is no different - except that success can be instant.
