We are all born to this world to see what the
world form and what it takes to survive in it. Subjectively, I believe all men
on earth are missionaries i.e. presence of man on earth is to fulfill a mission
and accompanies purposes. Hence,
“I don’t think there is any man on earth who do not aspire for a particular
thing in life but contrarily how many individuals in this world believe that
he/she is the greatest gift in life”
Everyman on earth is a traveler
on a mission, at this juncture; you need to ask yourself this simple question.
Why I am a greatest gift in life?
Good! the answer is simple
because fate of million of others lies on your hand i.e. if you succeed in life
then many others will succeed through you and if otherwise then other people also
pay for it and you denied them from reaching their goals.
There
are three major types of people on earth
People who live for life: These are individual who just
live for living sake, satisfy with their present circumstance and never plan
for the future. They have no goals, vision or plans for their life. They often
live and die without any accompanishment. They constitute problem to the
society rather than solution provider
People who life live for: This group of persons depend on
what life and others can offer them. They neither contribute anything to life
but constitute nuisance to the existence of man. However, people in this
category must be cater for by concern individuals either by government or
private individuals
People who live as life continue: People in this category
are the most wonderful people on earth. The fate of the world lies in their
hands, on their own they seek for ways to help others to succeed and help the
society to move forward.
However, out of these groups
where do you belong? It is high time every man realize that he/she must succeed
in life despite all social, economic, political and spiritual odds.
Where to start……..
Step 1: see yourself as a gift not only to yourself but also to
others
Step 2: conceived a mission and vision to be accompanies
Step 3: start by developing smart goals. You need goals
because of the following
Y
You cannot be a winner in the game of life
without specific, realistic, attainable goals
Y
Goods are necessary to motivate you to develop
latent potentials
Y
Human beings are goal seeking organism. You will
be happier and more fulfill when working
toward something definite
Y
Achievement of goals is necessary to develop a
good self image, a positive mental altitude and degree of self confidence
Y
Goals will help you evaluate your priorities and
maintain a balanced life.
Ready to pay the price and expect
the worse, focus on your goals and dealt with all challenges’ with the greatest
determination to succeed. Do to others what you can expect from others
“However, the potential for greatness lies within you but success
will come to you only if you make up your mind on what you want out of life”.
Note
There are no secret of success.
Success is all about you doing the things you know you should do and do away
with things you know is not good for you. Success is not limited to any one
area of your life. It encompasses all facet of your relationship such as
parent, wife or husband, citizen friend, neighbour and worker. “Success is discovering your best of your
best, talent, skills and abilities and applying them where they will make the
most effective contribution to their fellow men and women”
Success is not confined to any
one part of your personality but is related to the development of all parts:
body, mind, heart and spirit. It is making the most of your total self
Success is harnessing your heart
to a task you love to do. It is falling in love with your work. It demands
intense concentration on your chief aim in life. It is focusing the full power
of all you are on what you have a burning desire to achieve
Success is ninety – nine percent
mental altitudes. It calls for love, joy, optimism, confidence, serenity,
poise, faith, courage, cheerfulness, imagination, initiative, tolerance,
honesty, humility, patience and enthusiasm
“Success is not arriving at the summit of a mountain as a final
destination. It is a continuing upward spiral of progress”. It is
perpetual growth. Success is having courage to meet failure without being
defeated. It is refusing to let present loss interfere with your long range
goal. Success is accepting the challenges of the difficult. Listen to the
inspiring words of Philips Brooks “Do not pray for task equal to your powers”.
Pray for powers equal to your tasks. Then the doing of your work shall be no
miracle but you shall be the miracle”
Success is relative concepts and
individual can embrace it. Infact, it is your answer to the problem of making
your minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years add up to a great life
I believe you are the change the
world needs
