Everyone in this world wants to achieve success. People work day in and day out just to be successful. Obviously, one doesn’t work to be called a failure or fail in his task. But, the thing which arises after completion of the work is what success is? Are we aware that what this 7 letter word means or rather just blindly run after it? How do we evaluate our success? How do we know that how much of success have we achieved in our work? What is the formula for determining the rate of success? There must be several questions which keep on rotating in our mind regarding which we quest for answers every moment.
Whenever a man acts, he acts with a view to accomplish his goal and ultimately hold success, be it in whatever field he is engaged, despite knowing the fact that his way to complete his set target would not be full of roses, he will find ample amount of thorns in his way which will wish to deter him from his path. But a man who dreams of success with full determination, prior to giving green signal to any of his work and he will never bargain for or wish for anything less than success. But, it is not necessary that the end result is always success. It may happen that all his efforts are ending in fiasco. But, this would not have any sort of effect on a man of fortitude. He will stand up with more courage the next time and will definitely be successful as this time he has already learnt from his mistakes and the failure. It is the indefatigable spirit of his that will ultimately lead him to success.
One can achieve his aim of life by hard work. If a man has a will to do a thing, he will definitely find a way to do it, be it by whatever means. No obstacle is insurmountable enough or holds within it so much capacity as to deter him. Nothing can shake his faith. If a man has a will to do something, he will surely achieve it. He will never find himself discouraged, in all sorts of situations he will fight with his head stood high enough. Such a man will be able to achieve anything he wants in the teeth of stiff opposition. He can mould inhospitable circumstances to his favour and liking. But, those who are weak willed buckle under the pressure of circumstances. They flounder against the rocks and are ultimately destroyed in his forth coming future days. Strong will is the last means of a man if he is to achieve his cherished goal of life. He has talent to carve his own way if he has the tenacity of will. Only a determined person tastes success by following a determined path. Perfection is the fruit of constancy and cause of success in life.
Now when coming to the rate of success or how we measure success, then its concept differ from person to person. People, there is no set formula or a tried and tested by which the rate of success can be determined, like today I have achieved my goal so I have attained this much amount of success. After all this is not at all sensible.
As, the viewpoint of every person differs regarding different things, so does the view on what is success differs from person to person. Taking an example of the rose, a person who will be of positive thoughts and will be optimistic, will see the rose and the other one who is always negative will see the thorns in it, regardless of the beauty of the rose. Likewise, some people see failures; others see failures as the stairs that will help them achieve success.
You should always determine your success rate by seeing yourself and not by judging yourself against others. You yearn for knowing what success is. You set your target for a day, beat them and learn from the mistakes you have done, this will be your success. Success also can be seen from various viewpoints. Like you can set your short term or the long term goals for determining or achieving success, whatever you wish to. No one can impede your path of achieving success in your goal, once you set your eyes on your goal, are determined towards it and are working hard for achieving it. You will become the architect of your own fate. Fortune also favours those, who believe in the principle of hard work. Name and fame cannot be achieved by a sheer store of luck.
For a child success means getting a good score in the exam, for a college student it may be to be placed in a good company after he graduates. The way people look at success also differs. Like some believes that they will be successful if they have money, some want fame, some want peace of mind. So, success can’t be calculated by simply applying a mathematical formula. For a poor person success is having good simple food before sleep at night and for a middle class family, it may mean going on a good and relaxing vacation. Similarly, what is success will be different for a rich class family.
Hence the meaning and significance of success depends and differs from every other person to person and one will find diversity in it according to one point of view. It’s just that you ought to chase what your heart says and do whatever you love doing and are passionate about. Success will automatically run after you.
