SUCCESS COMES TO THOSE WHO DO NOT FEAR FAILURE

Font size: Decrease font Enlarge font

Sir,

Thoughts are powerful things, they can be translated into immeasurable riches when they are mixed with vision, purpose, persistence and a burning desire. Success comes to those who know that life is first born in thought, who seek the vision before the deed and conform the deed to the vision.


Too often we carry dreams within us for years and years, longing for the happiness we would experience ‘if only’ we could make one of those dreams come true.
 Like a black marble ignored, unvalued and unused - we allow our talents, our hopes and our dreams to lie lifeless within us. In every moment of our lives we programme our positive or negative self-concepts.


These images are in many like an automatic pilot of a jet aircraft programmed without a value-judging function, they simply strive to fulfill the attitudes and belief’s set for them and they don’t care whether they are positive or negative.
How important are your hopes and dreams to your internal guiding system? Have you made them secondary to the effects of the negative experiences that everyone must inevitably endure or do you give your personal vision the supreme importance that it deserves?


Do you think of your goals as one-of-a-kind or silly musings that aren’t worth your attention? The age-long struggle of a man is to realise the best that is in him. Nothing in the world can take away the place of persistence, talent will not, genius will not, education will not, the slogan ‘press on’ has solved and will always solve the problems of the human race.


You can be as great as you want, believe in yourself, you have the courage, determination, dedication and the competitive drive to succeed. Success is just a continuum, at one end is what we call failure, at the opposite end is success and satisfaction. So don’t be discouraged by failure, success begins with failure and ends with accomplishment.
