I think you hit the mark on these tips to be successful. These are very encouraging as well, it can get so hard while you are working towards something. You can start to doubt yourself, or think it is taking too long. While we should enjoy life in the moment, there is something to be said about not dwelling too much on our current state and focus on what we are doing to change it.

I think defining what success means to you is probably the most important part. And as focusing on future – yes, but don’t let it go as far as to forget to live in the present..
