         Sam Altman, former president of Y Combinator and CEO of OpenAI, among the world's renowned startup accelerators, is one of the biggest names in the startup world. Some time ago he wrote a blog post telling his fans how to become a successful person. According to him, this blog post is one of his most important things written to date. Know some special things that Sam considers necessary to succeed.


         Make place Top 1% with Hard Work
         You can make a place among the top 10% of people in your area by doing smart or hard work and it is a huge success. But to make a place among the top 1% of people, both of them are needed, because you are competing with talented people who also have ideas and are willing to work hard to fulfill them. . Be prepared for hard work from the beginning of your career, because the sooner you start, Because the sooner you start, in the time you can gain more profit.


         Have to take a risk
         It is important to take risks. It is easy to take risks at the beginning of a career because you do not have much to lose, But there is, a lot to be gained. Once you are in a position to meet your basic needs, you should move towards making it easier to take risks. For this, take such risks where if you get a 1% loss if it is wrong, then you have 100% profit if it is right.


         Operate internally, not external
         Most people are externally operated. They do what, they do to impress others. But it has two disadvantages. The first is that you will stop yourself from doing what you find interesting. The second is that you will not be able to properly assess the risk. The feeling of not being left behind by others will not allow you to assess risk accurately. But successful people are driven internally. They only want to impress themselves.


         Trust yourself and be sure
         The most successful people I know rely on themselves to the extent of insanity. Once Elon Musk took me on a tour of the SpaceX factory. I still remember the certainty on his face when talking about sending huge rockets to Mars. But it is also important to strike a balance between trusting yourself and being aware of yourself. So I listen to my criticism first and take action only after that.
