Primarily, Hard Work. It helps to have some good habits, and a little luck too.

People who are successful financially work hard at finding the right thing to invest in. Whether it is in themselves like athletes working out when everyone else is relaxing, or in knowledge, like the PhD Nuclear Physicist, or the market like Warren Buffet.

Successful people work hard when others are relaxing. Successful people focus on their goal and make sacrifices to reach it.

I second hard work. I highly recommend the book "Mindset" by Carol Dweck. You can also listen to a little bit of her philosophy on the podcast The Kiva Connection. It's Episode 12.

Following the Bible: Joshua 1:8: "This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have success."

Can you expand on that, surfsupl? A more complete answer would be useful.
