The definition to success is trading your tradeplan accurately and moving your account in a positive direction on a consistent basis. Apply proper money management techniques and the rest will take care of itself, so long as you remain vigilant. I agree with AmCan1 that you have to treat it as a business.

Do you have an plan for when your trading software goes down?
What about when the exchange goes down?
Do you know how to hedge your trading instrument/size and do you have the excess capital available to?
Do you have another brokerage account if you can't access your current one?
