No, you need a plan PLUS hard work PLUS enough flexibility and self-awareness to shift your plan and hard work accordingly when you are not succeeding. While working hard and never stopping is required so is a reasonable, obtainable Goal and Action Plan to get there.

A lot of people are willing to work their asses off (more than you would think) but they don't know what to do or how to do it.
I didn't know what to do, or how to do it, but I figured it the fuck out because bills needed to get paid and I didn't want to live with my lights getting shut off one more time.

I had no plan. I could barely use the internet. I sure figured it out though.

All I had to have was determination. It's so hard for me to have sympathy for people who choose to stay stuck. I try, but it's very very hard.
