The Pillars of Success

The key to success is to focus on goals, not obstacles!

We all crave success, but only some can achieve our goals. Success is not only a daily process; it is a gradual process. We face lots of challenges in our lives, but only those persons who make perpetual efforts without caring about their obstacles become successful. Life is not a bed of roses; it is full of thorns, too. Success is the feeling that a person feels after giving something better than before.

It is the fruit of hard work and effort. It is the achievement of our aims. Success word itself has the significance of its every word as mentioned below:

S-set your goal

U-understanding the obstacles

C-create a positive attitude

C-clear your doubts

E-embrace the challenges

S-stay on track

S-show that you can make impossible, possible for achieving success.

A person should possess some qualities. Among them are hard work, persistence, planning and so on. There are numerous ways to be successful. Success is not something you can duplicate from others; you need to make your way without caring about the obstacles.

There are different pillars on which a person’s success depends. Among them, first of all, is PLANNING. Planning is the process of thinking regarding the activities required to achieve one’s goal. There is a beautiful quote from Tom Landry, Setting a goal is not the main thing, and it is deciding how you will achieve it and staying with that plan”. If you are well-planned, you will be a successful person. The other pillar of being successful is to LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES. No one is perfect in this world.

 We all make mistakes. Mistakes are proof that we are making efforts to achieve our goals. It is essential to learn from mistakes and not to repeat them. You should face your failure and accept your mistakes. Never try to give up on making mistakes. It would help if you understood that failure is not the opposite of success; it is a part of success. The other important thing of being successful is RESILIENCE.

You should be determined towards your goal. There will be obstacles, and there will be challenges which you have to face. Don’t be afraid of these obstacles, and focus on your goal. Nothing is impossible in this world. You can make impossible to I am possible. The other pillar of being successful is HARD WORK. Hard work is the key to success. Hard work means having a healthy body, strong mind, willpower and positive attitude. If you want to climb the ladder of success, you have to burn the midnight oil.

To achieve success, a person should be SELF-DISCIPLINED. Self-discipline is necessary in all fields, whether you are a student, employee or a politician. Discipline is the key to presenting ourselves. If we are disciplined, we can plan things in a better way.

The other important pillar of being successful is RESPECT TIME. Time is the most imperative thing in the world. Time, once passed, can never be recalled. So we have to set our timetable prudently. Never try to put off your work for tomorrow because tomorrow never comes. Always remember that time and tide wait for none, so we should always make the best of our time.

The other important pillar of success is OPTIMISM. It would help if you were optimistic in your thoughts. It is very essential to get rid of negativity. Always think positively. Speak to yourself that you can achieve your goal, and undoubtedly, you will be successful in achieving your goal. When you work without any distractions, concentrating towards your goal by toiling hard, success is sure.

The following is an extract from a beautiful and inspirational poem named SUCCESS IS SURE

KEEP TRYING, KEEP WORKING, WITHOUT LOOKING BACK

REMAIN MOTIVATED, AND DON’T LOSE TRACK

SUCCESS IS A JOURNEY NOT A DESTINATION.

WHEN YOU REACH ITS STATION

WITH HOPE AND DETERMINATION,

YOU WILL REALIZE, LIKE OTHERS HAVE,

THAT NOTHING SUCCEEDS LIKE SUCCESS“.

If you want success, don’t leave any stone unturned until you achieve your goal.
