2.Relevance
Remain committed to the purpose is a vital trait and habit that can make people successful. Regardless of the choice of carrier path, relevance and commitment to the goal will bring success. It means whether you aim to be an engineer, a doctor, a manager, an athlete, or a businessman, you will reach extreme human capability as long as you remain committed and relevant to your purpose. Every successful person has this standard property. Successful people do not change their path because of the popular opinion mentality. They believe in themselves and remain committed to their purpose. They exhaust all their energies by working for their dreams. They remain relevant to their dreams. It is a prerequisite to achieving extreme human capability.
Examples

Perseverance
Dreams demand consistency. It asks for perseverance. It requires motivation to work for your dreams even when you are not getting closer. It is about building your legacy through constant doubts and negativities. Most people lose relevance under the pressure of life's problems. Everyone desire to achieve more in life but few have the courage to keep going through never-ending pains. Some want to become scientists but face financial problems so direct themselves to get more wealth. By this, they give up dreams of being a scientist. Financial problems, family problems, psychological problems, emotional attachments are the biggest diversion in life. One has to rise above these problems to be successful.
3.Remain Truthful
In search of dreams, liars would fail. People who have no strength to speak the truth are destined to fail. It is not about how insane your idea, it is about how much you believe in your idea. If you do not believe that your idea will work, leave that idea. That idea is not for you, or you are not for that idea.
If you are running for wishful thinking, you ignore the truth because of what you want, it is a matter of serious concern for all the efforts you are putting into that particular work. Against the honesty of purpose, all efforts are useless, no matter you are at starting stage, middle of work, or have consumed years of life. When truth has been revealed to you, stay with God's truth. No doubt, it is the most difficult trap to avoid. Acceptance of reality is the first step of being truthful. Do not close your eyes to the glaring realities of life. If you are surrounded by problems, accept that and work on those problems without compromising your dreams. This habit will make you successful in life. It works like the forces of nature. It stands as universal truth in all timelines across the multiverse.

4.Find and Build Community
The subject of discussion in society is human. Before I dive deep into the community, it is necessary to know what a person dreams and desires to accomplish is realized by collective efforts. Success needs an impulsion but to realize it, you need people who have consonance with you in sense of purpose. They must be motivated enough to work hard for that dream. People who can die for that purpose and people who can live for that purpose. Such dedication, devotion, and allegiance with purpose make a bunch of people a community.
To establish a business of multi-billion dollars to bringing revolutions, a committed, motivated class of people plays a pivotal role. Trained people who must resonate with your dreams are the decisive factor for the movement you want.
Family is united because in the family almost everyone is committed to a sense of attachment and plays their role to keep it alive.
Business thrives because everyone has stakes in it to make it thriving.
Nations exist because there are people who work round the clock to keep them safe and progressive.
It also works like a law of nature that you have to build a community to excel in a particular field. the community exists for a purpose and a purpose is needed to create a community.
