SUCCESS

Everyone of us want to be successful in our life. Everyday we wake up and start working in a hope to be successful at any point of life, but only a handful of people are known to be successful while a lot of others blame their fate for being unsuccessful in life. We have different perspective about being successful. We want to be successful as a student, as an employee, as a manager, and so on. There are a lot of reasons for us to be unsuccessful, but we are responsible for all the reasons, because we are lacking a lot of qualities and ideas to be successful. We need to change our perspective about life and success. We are bound by ideas like success needs luck, success happens by itself on time, etc., but in reality, luck never really control us. I never believe in the term ‘unlucky’. Nobody can build a bridge in over night, so does success. In our society, successful persons are praised a lot, but we never look at the path they walked through. Let's look into the qualities that will help us achieve success.

FAILURE 
Without having clear idea about failure, we can never know about the taste of success. We need to go through night, to enjoy the fragrance of a day. Failure is the basic necessity to achieve success. I define failure as the opportunity to learn, to survive, to analyse the technique for achieving success. Our life is all about constant learning, so it's very usual to have failures. One who considers failure as an opportunity, wins; whereas the one who considers failure as a threat, quits. Life is not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you raise up. When you feel so much broken about life, just say yourself that THIS TOO SHALL PASS. On every situation, these four words will motivate you.

LOVE
This is one of the main qualities every human being should possess to be successful. When you wake up everyday, say yourself that you will love everything that comes around. Love the failure for making you learn; love the success for paying your hard work. Love the day for waking you up alive; love the night for giving a peaceful sleep. Love everyone for being there in your life and teaching you to survive in this world. Loving everything around brings peace to your life, it makes us to develop good habits. Being successful without peace is as same as being unsuccessful.

PROACTIVE 

We must control our life and our environment rather than going with the flow of life. Often this situation is compared with a boat and the sea. When we don't control the boat and let it go with the flow, we will never know where it will end up and we can't find the shore. In the same way, when we don't control our mind, we will never know where our life will end up and we can never taste success. To reach the shore, you need to move yourself and put up little hard work. We must never respond to anything that we cannot control. We often lose our minds for things we don't owe control over. Focus on everything you can change to create a better environment. 

LIVE NOW

Start everyday as a new day of your life; imagine that your life ends when you sleep. If this is your last day, what will you be doing right now? How will you talk to people around you? How will you treat your parents and friends? When you take care of everything around you every day, you will get a lot of benefits in long term. Life is too short to postpone anything for tomorrow. Do what motivates and encourages you. Stop listening to comments of others and do what you like if what you do is right to your conscience. We won't be doing what we do now, if this was our last day in this world. Do what makes you happy. Stop regretting your past and your worries about future. From today, consider that you are new person to this world with no chains to tie your legs. 

DONATE

The more you give, the more you reap. Develop the habit of donating a part of what you earn. Happiness in donating cannot be described, it can only be felt. All the richest person that ever lived on this earth have donated almost half of their wealth. Donating others will never reduce your wealth; people with such thought can never grow in wealth. Your success must serve the world and make a healthy change in environment; it enables you to keep achieving success. We must donate our knowledge to everyone in need; the more you donate your knowledge, the more you gain it. Donate yourself in the development of this world and your success will never be questioned. 

THINK POSITIVE 

You become what you think. Your thinking is responsible for everything that happens to you. Your thoughts are reflected in your activity, your activities becomes the habit, your habits decide your environment, and your environment creates your opportunity. If you stay positive, your environment will show you the way to solve any problem easily and helps you in achieving your desire. If you sow negative thoughts in your mind, even if you work hard, you can't taste success. Often what we want are not what we expect. For example, if I want to become the president of our nation, and keep expecting that it can never happen, it will not happen. Expect what you want. Expectations will never lead to disappointment if you have worked enough for the expected result. 

PROCRASTINATION 

Everyone of us in this world is a procrastinator. To achieve success, we need to start working towards it; but procrastination will move us away from success. We keep procrastinating until we get close to the end time for something we work on. Success is something that never comes with urgency; so if we don't start working now, we will never achieve success. We need to choose the path for ourself and start working towards it. I always relate our mind with a well built up body; developing it is our own choice, but it gets spoiled if we don't develop it. If you want success, stop procrastinating it and start working on your dream right now. The faster you start working on your dream, the sooner you will reach it.

FAMILY

Success in life doesn't only include the success at work but also includes the success at home. Peace in family brings us the peace in work. We need to love our family, understand them, and be a responsible member. Being successful at home and our environment will create a complete atmosphere for us to keep contributing to the world. Spend time with family and develop good relationship with them. Your achievement in your family is more important than your achievement at work. 

Everyone of us can be successful if we develop good habits, good environment, and work towards improving it. Let's all be successful and make this world a better place. When you are overwhelmed by success, think that this too shall pass and when you face failure, think the same. These thoughts will make you a better person. I wish you the best to follow your dreams and achieve it.
