Success : Is what how we see it

Everybody in this world wants to achieve success, but have you ever thought of taking the road to success? When I heard this first time I was also surprised like you guys with the fact that is it possible to have a road to success. But then I realised that it is not a myth. In fact there is a road to success.

But before taking this road we need to understand our final destination which is “Success”. The word Success is quite a generic word but it comes along with many other things like happiness, wealth, peace etc. It has different meaning for each of us sitting in this room. For some it’s professional and for some it is personal. But in the end what is Success? Success is something that you or somebody else set for you and you achieve it. As a small boy while studying you and your parents measure your success by the number of marks you got in exams. But the strange thing is that if the success criterion was to come first then even if you get 99% marks but if you are second then you have not attained success. Vice versa if the criteria was to come first and you came first with 70% marks, u still succeeds. So the point here is that the marks has no impact on your success because you set the position as your success criteria. But if you have criteria of getting above 95% then you are successful in scenario 1 and failed in scenario 2.

So success is relative to what you want from life not what life gives you. I think now meaning of success is quite clear. For some it is having power, for some good personal relations and for some just happiness.

Coming back to our Road to Success, having understood the meaning of success now I can say that the destination name is success but it will look different for different people. So don’t get carried away by looking at somebody else destination. Once you reach the destination just enjoy it and create a new destination for yourself.

To start on this road first decide what you need. What are your goals in your life? What things make you happy? Because succeeding without happiness is meaningless. Some people say your goals and dreams should be big. There is a saying that if you aim for stars even you miss you will land on moon. But if you are doing so you should be able to accept the fact that moon is beautiful. You should be able to take the failure in a good way and should keep trying. But if all your dreams is to reach the star and you are keep falling on the moon then later or sooner you’ll become unhappy. So the goals must also be realistic. So that you go step by step and enjoy the success also between your failures.

Like all roads, Road to success is bumpy at some places and smooth at some other. Sometime you’ll feel that you are getting out of fuel and sometimes you’ll enjoy the scenery along the roadside.

Give Your Best

Life is not that easy but it is not complicated either. It is the way we see it and the way we react to what comes to us. Sometimes in life you feel motivated and you do whatever is required to achieve your goals. You are ready to go the extra mile to achieve your dreams. You want to give your best in order to get success. You feel ahead of others in this race called Life.

But sometimes you are not sure whether your efforts will get you what you wanted. And sometimes you are not sure what you want at the first place. You have dreams but they don’t look realistic. You have goals but they don’t look achievable. At that time you sit back and start thinking of what to do next.

Life is all about giving your best in whatever you do. It is all about taking that extra step that you know is difficult for you. You can always do things what you can but doing something extra always gives you more satisfaction. There is no such thing like success and failures. It is all created by us only. But if you can do something that you feel was not easy for you to do that is Success.

An effort backed by your heart will never go in vain. Some people dream big, some small and some don’t. But I say have a dream. A dream that you can say is yours and your heart is with you to fulfil it. Then give your best to achieve it. You have to protect your dreams.
