Ever wondered why some people are wildly successful?

And some are not?

In his recent book "Outliers: The Story of Success," author Malcolm Gladwell says it's simply down to practice.

And he's even found a time formula for the amount of practice anyone needs to do to be successful.

It's 10,000 hours.

Easy, isn't it?

All you have to do is practice your skills 40 hours a week, for 250 weeks.

Before you get upset at all the hours you need to play lottery games, be reassured this doesn't apply to winning lotto.

But it does mean something just as important.

Now, some lottery players don't need any practice at all. With the right system they can win almost immediately.

But what many often forget is they need to keep playing regularly, just like practice. I call it "play persistence."

Because every game you miss is a winning opportunity lost for ever.

In his autobiography, Chinese superstar pianist Lang Lang tells the story when he was a child of being late to lessons one day. His father was annoyed.

"You have lost two hours of time that you will never get back again!" said the father.

And that's the secret of not only Lang Lang's phenomenal success, but our own.

Play often, and never miss a game.

Time and opportunity lost can never be regained.

A friend of mine for many years found this out to his great loss.

His numbers came up just a few weeks ago, and his winning line in the Australian Tattslotto gave him a win of $1 million. The win would have solved all his problems and set him up for retirement.

Sadly he didn't play that game.

And I had to listen to his disappointment on the phone. It was a bitter blow for him.

Once you miss out on a game, the opportunity to win is gone forever.

And unless you play, you'll never know whether your numbers have the winning potential.

It only takes one line of numbers to bring you a fortune and completely change your life.

There's a reason the slogan for playing the lottery is "be in to win."

You need take part in each and every game - it is quite simply an essential step to win any lottery.

And you won't have to spend 10,000 hours to do it either!
