there a “success personality”some winning combination of qualities that leads almost 51 to achievement? if so, exactly what is that secret success formula, and can anyone develop it? at the gallop organization we recently focused in depth on success, inquiring into the 52 of 1,500 distinguished people selected at random from whos who in america. our research finds out a number of 53 that occur regularly among top achievers. here is one of the most important, that is common sense. common sense is the most obvious quality 54 by our participants. seventy-nine percent award themselves a top score in this quality. and sixty-one percent say that common sense was very important in 55 their success. to most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical 56 on everyday affairs.

it must be followed up with concrete 64 . your plan for career success is nothing unless you act upon it whole-heartedly.50.a. defineb. determinec. estimated. prove51.a. especiallyb. properlyc.
