I think you've mixed your metaphors up a little.

One doesn't desire to reach the summit of an iceberg. I don't think and iceberg even has a summit.

The iceberg metaphor is that you only see a small part of someone's success. You see the results but you do not see the effort.

Yeah, go ahead and look really closely under that water. Let us know how it feels to drown.

Look under the water to reach the summit? Climb that iceberg?

Eh?

That Island is going to sink pretty quickly...

I wonder how many people get motivated by these r/GetMotivated posts

I thought it was a main menu from a game for a few seconds 💀

This is a recipe for toxic shit

Pictured: iceberg

Far Cry: Success Island

Bro yes that’s how islands sunk the fuckin titanic no way they could see that island at night but tbh the island should have radio contacted them ugh smh

Shouldn't... it be an iceberg?

Since when being successful is toxic?

Ah yes, berg

And, further to your point, wouldn't "looking under the water" in this case show the effort you already put in to get the success? And not previously undiscovered territory to "climb"?

So much, for so little. . .

So sad

Sometimes you don’t always get an iceberg and life is all about adapting and thriving with what you do have, op is simply using law of attraction and manifestation to manifest an iceberg /s

You forgot Luck, which accounts for a pretty large portion

i can't swim...

Just a while ago I said to someone: "Entrepreneurs are the true saviour of the world. They take risks and numerous other obstacles to generate employment, income and livelihood for everyone else."

And, now your post.

Success is arbitrary and completely dependent on who decides to give inflated amounts of currency to. It's all luck of the draw in what the consumer demands out of the services desired.

The fact that "Luck" isn't present in this list makes it unrealistic & extremist.

Maybe if "motivated" meant the same as "mildly annoyed".

Nah there's a gigantic floater supporting it from below.

You thought "This" meant "being successful"?

Let me get this straight, your available brain cells looked at that comment, and thought he was saying "Being successful is a recipe for toxic shit"? That was more plausible to you than the obvious fact that he's talking about the fucking post? The message in the post? The mentality that's represented in the post? That's what leads to toxic shit? Get it...?

Look I know people say ur born with an IQ and it stays the same forever, but the brain still needs exercise to get stronger just like a muscle. Muscles need exercise or they will atrophy you know? Your "muscle" seems like it's atrophying. Tend to it.

That, Sir, is a rock :-p

Huh? Doesn’t even make sense

I'd love to discuss with you if you had no superiority complex which you clearly have, which can be seen by how you want to make yourself seem better than me. No, being sarcastic and making your point to diminish me or my IQ doesn't make you a genius, bro. Seriously, touch some grass.

I'm glad it hurt. Think before talking next time.

Empirical research shows that late nights don’t help someone achieve success, unless you sleep in the next day. Quality sleep matters.

But sometimes success is just relationship with a Big Boss ((

Damn, your horse is higher than I thought.

That’s an island my friend. And a doomed one at that

Lol that was good try OP

Was this made by an AI?

Weird iceberg.

Do islands float?

It's made of one of those basalt rock
