1. The Road to success is not straight; there is a curve called failure, a loop
called confusion, speed bumps called friends, caution lights called family,
and you will have flats called jobs. But, if you have a spare called
determination, an engine called perseverance, insurance called faith, and a
driver called God, you will make it to a place called success!
2. In spite of all our planning and preparation, unexpected challenges are
certain to arise. The bumps in the road are unavoidable, but you’ll never
get to your destination if you aren’t willing to drive over them. The
difference between a disaster and triumph lies in whether or not you’re
prepared and willing to weather the storm. If you’re ready, those bumps will
become stepping-stones.
3. The key thing to realize is that working harder is same as working
smarter. How do you work smarter? You just need to have the right skills.
People want improved circumstances and better life without an improved
self. They want victory without paying the price or making efforts. It really
cannot happen without the other. Any improvements that have not been
generated by improving yourself are superficial and short-lived. If you want
to have a better future, you have to change yourself. Stop worrying about
the various challenges that will come your way. Just believe in yourself and
use them as stepping-stones.
4. “Success” is getting whatever you want out of life without violating the
rights of others.” It is not an accident. Success is the result of our
attitude and our attitude is a choice. Hence success is a matter of choice
and not chance.
5. Today success represents a holistic and positive attitude to life. Attitude
is everything. Success is not restricted within some kind of brick and mortar
premises. It assumes the individuality of a complete act executed with
perfection; material achievements do not define life. We don’t remember
sports stars for the products they endorse but the spirit of achievement
they represent. In the abundance of positive attitude underline the grandeur
of a truly rewarding rich life.
6. Success can be measured from two standpoints—the external and the
internal. Externally it is the measure of a job well done and recognition.
Internally it the feeling of achievement and wholeness derived from the
completion of a task or fulfillment of desire.
