Opis

What many views as success vary from persons to persons. Rest is a state of accomplishment which follows a positive result. The oxford Dictionary defines success as the accomplishment of an aim; a favorable outcome. The word was derived from the Latin word- success, which means- advance or happy outcome. The ancient Greeks had two famous sayings: "Man, know thyself" and "Moderation in all things." Taken together, those two ideas are a good starting point for achieving the balance that you desire. With regard to knowing thyself, it is very important to give some serious thought to what you really value in life. All trade-offs and choices are based on your values, and all stress and unhappiness come from believing and valuing one thing and, yet, finding yourself doing another. Only when your values and your activities are congruent do you feel happy and at peace with yourself- from "Brian Tracy's e-book, Principles of Success." In the business world, success is more achieved through hard work and determination than the quest for advantage and favoritism. In a physical combat, competition works; mental success requires originality and persistence; and political success means being able to comply with what will lead to victory at a given time. Once goals are set, success is determined by the right route that reduces time to fulfillment. In corrupt free societies, success is on merit and a few who work hard to climb up the ladder are found at the top Are you challenging yourself enough? Are you forgetting about the obstacles on the way? What are the plans based on your dreams? A major reason people fail in life is because they want to do as others. Every person has a different scroll of activities and as far as you do not understand the contents of your own, you will certainly fail. Life question papers are different for each person, cheating leads to failure because the answers are so different from your own. "That longing for a life without difficulties reminds us about oaks that grow strong against the directions of the winds, gold that passes through hot furnaces and diamonds that are made under high pressures..." - Peter Marshall Since there is no hard rule for success, it then means people should define their success, write down and follow them up astutely. During the success journey, be careful who you spend time or discuss your mission with. Attitude is quite infectious; so relate with positive people that encourage you to accomplish. You should also live in the world of your vision by visualizing every step of your dream. Visualizing is the key to realizing and the assurance to accomplishing your goals. Appreciate God for every good thing that happens in your life, if you expect more or increase. Be ready to persevere because this is the master key to success. Abraham Lincoln became a great man through putting much effort into developing himself. If he did not work hard, persisted, left the White House doors open for people to come in with different pieces of advice, maybe, his story would have been different today; perhaps not that of greatness? Nobody should make himself an icon of "all knowledge" because success goes with humility and learning. This does not also translate to lacking principles and self-knowledge, but having "listening ears and discerning spirit" to decipher useful advice from the adverse ones. Abraham Lincoln, 16th President of America: "Let no feeling of discouragement prey upon you, and in the end, you are sure to succeed." Finally, God has the scroll of every man, leaving Him out of this worldly journey can be futile. Therefore, everybody's walk on earth should be with his or her creator for success.
