Success in all our endeavours is what we all want but, most of us forget that for achieving success, the road is not strewn with roses. The walk is not a cakewalk, nor is it a gift on a platter. Success is an achievement by constant diligence and most of us fail to achieve because most of us lack the essential quality of diligence.
The magic of hard work and perseverance cannot be underestimated. We see in general that people who have succeeded in life have done an immense amount of hard work and their success is we all see, but the effort put in, we fail to measure. We do wonder how he could achieve so much, but it is absolutely certain that achievement has come his way after much of continued efforts. Most of us do make efforts but soon lose heart and leave our projects and this is why we fail. It must be clear in our minds that we never can achieve with just a simple raising of finger; we have got to put our heart and soul in a particular job and that also with continued vigour in every attempt. Then only we can hope for any success. Those of us who leave efforts midway are obviously left midway by success as well. And then we are disheartened and broken, just to ogle jealously at those who have succeeded. If we have confidence in our efforts, there is nothing that can deter us from achieving.
Let us see right from childhood, those children who work hard constantly and regularly are always the ones to stand first. We do often admire or feel jealous of people rising, but we fail to see what extra efforts they are putting in to improve their prospects. One important password for all of us to follow is that, there is no short-cut to success, the road to success is thorny and very long. Those who dare to cross this road and undertake the tedious journey with a continuous effort always find leisure at the end.
