The Key to Success

I have heard all through the life that Confidence and Hard work will lead to success. To be true I have seen many unsuccessful people with these qualities because they lack Consistency in their efforts.

Like the ant who tried and tried till she succeed to climb the hill we need to continue our efforts to reach our goal .Most of us set up a goal, strive hand to reach it and  if we fail in one or two attempts we get depressed and take our eyes away from the goal. Remember “Rome was not built in a day”.

I had a friend in school who was a very poor learner. He could somehow manage just to get through the exams. After his schooling, unfortunately his mother was detected with cancer. That was the time he realized his role as a son. This boy who was nowhere in the list of students with good grades was now always among them. I asked him the reason for success and he replied

”I was never intelligent but I now believe in consistent hard work.”

Once I had attended a seminar on yoga. The presenter was emphasizing on the benefits of asanas and having a balance diet. He told us to have carrot and spinach for good eyesight, soaked almonds for improving memory. A lady from the audience stood up and asked

“I have been doing this for a while but see no benefits”

Presenter replied “A while? How long is that? I had a paralysis attack a year back and could hardly stand on my own. I practiced what I preached and now you can see me standing here and propagating the benefits .You can’t lose weight or get over an illness by practicing it for a while. You should include it in your daily routine. You can be slim or fair in just few days”

Train your lazy bones to work consistently to enjoy the fruits of success.
