There is no universally accepted
definition for describing a successful or an unsuccessful person. Because there
are two angles of analysis 1) self-analysis and 2) analysis by others. Also,
success or failure is never permanent (in fact nothing is) it changes from time
to time as needs change.
So, success or failure is always
need-dependent. Control the needs to control success or failure. (See Maslow’s
Hierarchy Model).
But there is saying “Necessity is mother of all Invention or Discovery”
and practically this was proved many times since ages. Just think of the
world today with that of 1000 years back. Also, just imagine how the world
would be in 3000 A.D.
The best product made by GOD in this
world is the Human Mind.
Because when I compare Human Body and
its capabilities with that of the Plant and Animal world I find that the power
of Human Mind is unlimited but at the same time most vulnerable to distraction.
There are so many animals in the
animal kingdom with extra-ordinary capabilities likewise in the Plant kingdom.
However, there are certain limitations to both animal and plant species.
Human being is the only species that
has evolved since ages and has been trying to take control of all other
kingdoms in the world surprisingly started to look beyond space.
Why only Human beings are able to do
this why not other species is a billion dollar question?
If we closely look at the life of all
the so called successful people around us and try to understand the challenges
they all have experienced before calling themselves successful we find some
interesting points –
1.
Clarity on what they want; (AIM/DREAM/IMAGINATION)
2.
Experimenting all the ways and means to fulfill
the need; (EFFORTS/FAILURES/LEARNING)
3.
Highly self-motivating after each failure; (ATTITUDE)
4.
Sacrificing other needs; (PRIORITISING)
5.
Continuing to experiment till they achieve;
(PATIENCE)
6.
Enjoying the positive results; (SELF/SHARE)
