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, and 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

will 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 weather the storm if you are

ready, those bumps will become stepping stories.

3. The key thing to realise is that working harder is not the 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

of 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 stories.
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

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 for fulfilment of desire.
