Taking Shortcuts Will Get You Short
Undoubtedly there is no shortcut to success. Those who try to find shortcut to success, cut short their success. All those who earned it did so through the sweat of their brow! , Colin Powell, a great American statesman says, “Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty, and persistence.” Those who wish to achieve success through a shortcut, are bound to be disappointed.
All successes originate in mind. First of all it makes its presence felt in the form of a vision, idea, inspiration, or a dream. Turning the mental concept into tangible reality requires a long effort and perseverance. The entire course that leads to successful realization of one’s dream is ridden with obstacles, discouragements, failures, and setbacks. The person who wishes to be successful and is discouraged by failures can never ever taste the manna of success. The truth is our failures our stepping stones by whose medium we reach success.
All great personalities and personages, who have left indelible prints of their lives on the sands of eternity, are the men and women who converted their failures into success. The list is endless: Albert Einstein, Charles Darwin, Isaac Newton, Socrates, Thomas Edison, Abraham Lincoln, Charlie Chaplin, Henry Ford, Bill Gates, Walt Disney, Helen Keller, Booker T. Washington, Mahatma Gandhi, and so on. All the above mentioned names share one common thing; they were not quitters; they were winners. They knew the secret to be successful. They faced myriads of obstacles and hindrances without compromising with their vision and mission. They were ready to face as many failures as were required in order to be successful.
All the above mentioned personages did not find any shortcut to success. They paid the price that was to be paid to be successful. If they had tried to find any shortcut, they would not have been successful. Trying to find shortcut to success reflects poor attitude and your incapability. It is impossible to attract success with this type of attitude.
