| Interestingly,
the word success itself has got three S's, which can be written as $$$.
The
two C's as Cents Cents while U for You, and
the E is for Efforts. So, the word success can be rewritten
as: $ - yoUr
- Cents - Cents
- Efforts - $
- $ ($UCCE$$).
We can now
simply deduce from this coincidence that "success is the worthy outcome
of our efforts" i.e. the positive result of our efforts -
the results that bring us satisfaction, happiness, and tranquillity.
John R. Wooden
puts it: "Success is peace of mind which is a direct result of self-satisfaction
in knowing that you did your best to become the best you are capable of
becoming." WordNet defines success as: "an event that accomplishes its
intended purpose" or,
"a state of prosperity or fame." while Vince
Warner puts it: "Success means achieving those things we set out to
achieve."
Life is full
of challenges. Nobody is excluded from this. But, challenges make us stronger
if we take them positively. All successful people went through hurdles
after hurdles before they achieve greatness! Ironically, this seems to
be the rule of success. Persistence is the attitudinal difference
between the failures and the victorious (successful people).
Also remember
that, going through failures after failures doesn't mean that you are a
failure. Thomas Edison "failed" thousand of times but he never for a second
considered himself a failure in each "failure". In fact, he experienced
more failures than anybody else but he had achieved more successes than
anybody else too. So long as you take failures positively, you are in actuality
failing your way to success!
Hence, whatever
adversities you are facing now, your life MUST go on. Remember,
YOU
were born to SUCCEED - We were all born to succeed - NOT to
fail! There is an interesting Iban saying "agi idup agi galaban".
It means, for as long as one is still alive, he or she must keep fighting
for life. Iban is one of Malaysian thriving ethnic groups living mostly
in Sarawak,
one of Malaysian states on the Island of Borneo which is adjacent to my
state, Sabah.
Who Are Successful People?
Successful
people are goal-setters and getters who strategically and diligently
move ahead to achieve WHATEVER THEY NEED, WANT OR ASPIRE TO BE, despite
the obstacles, hurdles, challenges, and failures in the process. And that,
because of these traits and philosophies, successful people get whatever
they want most of the time.
Successful
people "own" whatever jobs they do. They love what they do. If what
they love doing is being threatened, they will go all out to defend and
protect it. If they are losing, they will quickly find new ways winning
it - taking control of their positions. Successful people possess extraordinary
determination in achieving what they set to achieve! |
