Success didn't come easy, says Kardashian

LOS ANGELES: Reality TV star Kim Kardashian says a lot of hard work has gone behind her success and insists she didn't get everything ready-made.

The 31-year-old has admitted the fact to her younger brother Rob in an upcoming episode of her show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, reports contactmusic.com.

"You say you want something, well, no one ever gave me anything, like, I worked," Kardashian said.

"I've always been, like, the type, like, to hustle and do it on your own, so I feel like sometimes when you want help, I'm like, you're not directing us. I told mom 'This is exactly what I want to do,' and she made it happen. We would all help you if you had a little more guidance to us," she added.

The socialite has her own chain of perfumes and clothing boutique in partnership with sisters Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian.
