Never Lose Hope | Stay Motivated

SUCCESS. Nice word na? Almost everyone on this earth wants to achieve it. Hehe, it’s really true sir. If you are thinking about a random guy who doesn’t want to earn money. Then wait, success isn’t just about earning money. One may crave for success in any field. He may be looking for a nice girl to be with, maybe for lots of fame, maybe starving for good marks in his exams. A saint up in the mountains maybe looking for mental peace, blah blah blah. So, its really simple, overall goal of everybody is to be successful.

Do you know? World’s population is estimated to be around 7.6 billion as of December 2017. Really, a large number to beat. There is too much competition. People are very talented. You are just a beginner in your field, are not god gifted, are not lucky enough.

Bullshit!! To be successful, Nothing of the above-mentioned characters is required. But, you will need courage, fearlessness, bravery, focus, commitment, sincerity and “readiness-to-take-risk”.

In the journey to be successful, get ready to face the quality and quantity of failures which you even never dreamed of. An important key to pass through those failures is by being persistent. I mean really Persistent.

There are chances, you will not succeed the first time, the second time, tenth time, hundredth time, thousandth time but a day will come when all of your hard work will be paid off. Your efforts will be considered. You will be in the limelight.

Till then, it’s a really hard journey. You will feel like you are not making any difference with your activities but everything you are doing will be compounded one day. Like after countless days of sex, a mother gets the pregnancy test positive. After years of practice, a player makes a new record. After huge losses, a startup starts giving profit.
