How to achieve Success in life?

  It is well said: "Success brings people together, and failure makes them orphans". It applies everywhere and to all the circumstances. For example in the competitive exams, very few succeed and the remaining remains unsuccessful. People call the winners as "Lucky fellows", and the losers are called "bad luck people". This is human nature.  But, we can say confidently that all men are equal by nature. God has given intelligence equally to all. But success depends on how we use our intelligence. Success is not hereditary. Success is directly proportional to the hard working capacity.  Luck is described as: ‘’Hard work is another name for luck. Leave nothing to chance’’, a golden word to be adopted and followed by those who want success in their activities or programmes.  Success Quote: "Genius is nothing but 1% percent inspiration and 99% perspiration".  But one must keep it in mind that success is not so easy as it appears outwardly. Ask any successful person how he succeeded in his Endeavour, immediately he reveals the troubles he faced before he came out successfully.  The winners were relentlessly working hard, while we were sleeping. They read day and nights and sacrificed number of their happy moments and also luxuries. They also never forget, the hardships they underwent during their childhood life.  But one should not get discouraged at the time of failure. Most of the successful persons were also one time failured people.  Remember that, ‘’Failure is the stepping stone for success’’. Never stop if you fail one or two times in your attempts.

Success quote: Success never comes easy

 There is no ladder on which you can step up to success. When it comes to reaching your destination, life throws many tantrums and your path is always filled with thorns. But brave are those who are determined and never halt. They tread their path as if there will be no tomorrow and feel content only after reaching their destination. God is always testing us and strengthening us. He doesn’t give us the way to success but he always gives us the courage to reach our destiny and if we lack determination, he makes sure that he puts our life in such a way that we have the predicaments so that we try to overcome them by strengthening our courage.  Most of the people give up while battling with these predicaments which are actually to help us build our courage. But those who triumph over this dilemma emerge as winners. Everybody wants to be a winner but nobody wants to pay the price for it. We keep cribbing how our neighbours, friends, celebrities got the achievements but never we think over what they went through in order to achieve that. We never mull over the circumstances they endured. We just compare their current condition with that of ours and spend our whole life shouting how god was unfair to us, but we never have audacity to start working on our shortcomings and mould our life in such a way that we can achieve success. Success isn’t easy but it’s not that difficult too. If you are determined, nobody can stop you from achieving what you want. Never fear your deficiency. Never let your weakness come in between your way to success. Once you fail, keep trying until you achieve success. Success and failures are within us. You become what you think of yourself. So never think of yourself as a fiasco. Never be disappointed. Make sure that … [Read more...]
