Question

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 are prepared and willing to struggle in a storm. If you are 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 price or making
efforts. It really cannot happen without the other. Any improvements that haven't been
generated by improving yourself are superficial and short-lived. If you want to have a better
future, you have to change. Stop worrying about the various challenges that will con your
way. Just believe in yourselt and use them as stepping-stones.
4. 'Success'is getting whatever you want out of life without violating the rights of others. It's
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 represent a holistic and positive attitude of life. Attitude is everything.
Success is not restricted within some kind of brick and mortar premises. It measures 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 internal. Externally it is
the measure of a job well done and recognition. Internally it is the feeling of achievement and
wholeness derived from the completion of a task or fulfillment of desire.
