32. “The secret to success is to know something nobody else knows.” – Aristotle Onassis
Onassis had the largest privately-owned shipping fleet in the world, which made him one of the richest men in the world too. As a child, he and his family fled Greece during the Greco-Turkey War and moved to Argentina, where he worked as a tobacco trader.
It’s finding that niche that no one else has found yet that makes one person stick out from the rest. Having a careful eye for detail and finding ways to improve upon what already exists is the foundation for most successes in the world.
