Never give up....

I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

----------- Bill Cosby

Different people have the different meaning of success. Some says that health, wealth and money are success. Some says that achievement and name are success. Some says that position and fame are success. While some says that achieving his goal or target is success. Different people have the different opinion related to success. But what I feel that in my opinion, success is not only a single thing. It’s a combination of all things, which make us happy, healthy, rich, strong, powerful and confident? It means it’s a thing that develops our confidence and creates a self esteem in us.

Success is a continuous growth of life, its not to achieve a single target.

As Edwin C. Bliss said….. “Success doesn’t mean the absence of failures; it means the attainment of ultimate objectives. It means winning the war, not every battle.”

Do you think that there is any success in life without any obstacles? I seen moreover persons in my life, who wants success but don’t want any obstacles, any problems, and any failure and even don’t want to take any risk. They just want to learn swimming but without water. Is this possible? No, I don’t think so. I think, there is a great history of failure in behind every successful person. There is no way to get success easily rather than hard work.

When, we see any successful person in our life. Whether, that guy is a hero, heroin, businessman, businesswoman, any rich guy, any decent personality, actor, director or any famous guy. Who have achieved success in his/her field? We think that guy is really very lucky because he/she has achieved success rather easily. But, we generally forget to see the hard work and efforts in behind of them.

In words of Michaelangelo ------

If people knew how hard I had to work to gain my mastery, it wouldn’t seem wonderful at all.

Here are some examples of these guys who had created history.

1. Thomas Edison failed approximately 10,000 times while he was working on the light bulb.

2. Henry Ford was broke at the age of 40.

3. Lee Iacocca was fired by Henry Ford II at the age of 54.

4. Young Beethoven was told that he had no talent for music, but he gave some of the best music to the world.

5. Milton had written ‘paradise lost’ while he was blind.

6. And a great example of Abraham Lincoln.

Who failed in business at the age of 21; was defeated in a legislative race at age 22; failed again in business at age 24; had his sweetheart die when he was age 26; had a nervous breakdown at age 27; lost a congressional race at age 34; lost a senatorial race at age 45; failed in an effort to become vice-president at age 47; lost a senatorial race at age 49; and was elected president of the United States at age 52; This man was Abraham Lincoln.

Would you call Lincoln a failure? He could have quit, hung his head in shame, and gone back to his law practice. But to Lincoln, defeat was a detour, not a dead end.

What I feel that, you could never be a failure till then you try. Even impossible word says that its own I am possible. A person never is a failure till then he/she try.


How obstacles help us. Please read this story and find out.....


Obstacle in life.


While we all pray for each other that one should not come across any obstacle in life, I have a different view after read the following.
We must come across obstacles and need to pray for each other to overcome obstacles (with some pain) and progress.


One night recently my daughter, Elizabeth, was showing me an aquarium full of tadpoles. She had purchased a whole bag full of them for her children (my grandchildren) to watch grow from tadpoles into frogs. It was fun watching all of those little wiggly creatures swimming around in the aquarium! It brought back many fond memories of my own childhood, playing with “critters” down at my grandparent’s house.
I noticed that there was a big rock in the aquarium. When I asked her why she put a rock right in the middle of the tadpoles’ environment, Elizabeth told me an interesting story. I can hardly believe that I have lived almost fifty-nine years without having heard it because it is so good.


Elizabeth said that when she went to the pet store to buy the tadpoles, the gentleman told her to be sure to put a big rock right in the middle of the aquarium. The tadpoles must have this obstacle to give them the incentive to climb up and thus split their little wiggly tails so that their legs can begin to develop. If they have no rock or obstacle to climb up on, they will never turn into frogs. They cannot learn how to hop by just swimming around in water. They must have something causing resistance to give them the incentive to leap forward.
