There is nothing like "Over-night Success". Behind
every such success there is a hard work. Look around you, successful
people have a few things in common:
Dreams - they have
expectations from themselves and they want to be different from rest of
the crowd.
Self
Confidence - in their abilities. They know that they are capable to do
anything.
Daring -
they never bothered about society and the thoughts / opinions of
others.
Patience -
they were never in a hurry though aggressive in their approach.
Focused - they had clear
path for themselves; they know what they were doing, where they are going
and why.
Enthusiasm -
to carry-on in spite of failures and they had the ability to bounce back.
Every time they fall they bounced back they gained greater heights.
Never say die attitude -
nothing shakes their resolve or disturbs their vision. They always play to
win.
Your life consists of more than commuting to and from
your workplace and sitting at your desk / computer. Your life involves
more than living through your head - it is about living from your heart.
We all had a dream. It
involves 'growing up', some falling down and too much listening to those
who never made a difference to arrive at the 'conclusion': "I cannot make
a difference." Think for a moment, how the world would be if all people
had chosen not to strive for their dreams and make a difference.
People like Martin Luther
King, John Kennedy, Mohan Das Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Mother Theresa...You
may look at these names and feel somewhat intimidated and be tempted to
ask: "Can I really make a difference? Is it worth the price I would have
to pay?" It is easier to live a compromised, mediocre life, hoping that
someone else makes a difference, while you read about it.
We all had and have people
in our life, telling us that dreams are for children, encouraging us to
'grow-up'. Making a difference is like throwing a pebble in a pool. The
ripples spread from the centre to larger and larger circles of influence.
It begins within you.
Find your dream again. Shake off the dust. Put it
before you and say, "Hello, I'm back. " Get reacquainted. Feel the energy,
excitement, enthusiasm, fire and passion, overflowing within, calling you
to movement and action. Take a stance. Let people know what you think and
what you believe in, remembering the old phrase: "Stand for something or
fall for anything" - Words are not enough - let your actions talk.
Making a difference
challenges you to think and act differently to be different. The word is a
stage, we are simply players: Let us brighten it. An altruistic act is a
truly scared chant.
Success is not an hour's fruit. It is the outcome of
passionate dedication, sensitisation, conscientiousness, egalitarian
outlook, pluralistic, unbiased approach, multi-cultural perspective and
strong faith. It needs moral repugnance against injustice even when you
are in the complex web of relationships.
When life's largest pressures leave you struck dumb,
search for an answer; the solution will come. When a tragedy occurs
leaving you feeling numb, wait for your health; the strength will come.
When everyone relies on you and there is no way you can see, trust your
mind to think with time; patience is the key.
When you have made it where others always flee, wait
to gather courage; soon you'll be where you want to be. When it is nearing
the end and you're in need, muster up your courage; endurance will lead.
IT WILL COME.
