Success Iceberg Poster PDF


$10.12 NZD

Rendering loop-subscriptions

This poster is a great visual reminder that every accomplished or successful person has to invest a lot of effort, work, and many other things until they achieved their goals.

It shows there are no shortcuts and there are no overnight successes. 

Success means effort, grit, failures, frustrations, and rejections. It also means kindness towards others and taking care of yourself. 

The poster size is 8.5'' x 11'' (22 x 28 cm), and it will print on a regular A4 size paper. 

It is perfect for printing at home using a non-commercial printer.

Success Iceberg is a great visual reminder

My girls both have copies of this poster in their room. As well as teaching about the components of "success", it is a great reminder that what we see in others is only the tip of the iceberg - we see others' success but often miss all the effort and persistence that went into the success.

A positive twist on the iceberg theory

Many of us are familiar with the anger iceberg and I have used it numerous times with students. I love being able to use the iceberg theory to illustrate the concept that for success, a lot of other things have to be happening underneath what is seen!

This poster is an important conversation tool to spark the discussion about success:

  • Ask your child to imagine they're on the ship in the sea and they see an iceberg (just like in this poster). Ask which part of the iceberg they can see from their ship.
  • Explain an iceberg has two parts: what people see (above the water line) and what people don’t see (beneath the water). Only a small part of an iceberg is visible, whereas the larger part of an iceberg is hidden beneath the water.
  • Explain that this is similar to when they see a successful person. They can only see the outcome of this person's actions and most of their accomplishments (the visible part of the iceberg). Whereas the efforts that were necessary to achieve such an outcome remain hidden and unnoticed (the invisible part of an iceberg that is beneath the water line).
  • Ask what they think they need to do to achieve success and fulfill their dreams (put forth effort, accept their failures, learn from mistakes, be kind and help others, etc.).
  • Expand the conversation by talking about your own successes and what it took you to achieve them.
  • Give an example of a famous person like Thomas Edison who went through ten thousand experiments before he invented his light bulb.
