What is Success? Are we really successful?
Yes, we are successful when we think about this question. It means we are analysing and observing ourselves. We are successful when we allocate the scope of improvement. But when we desire for everything in excess, we are not really successful.
We all have experienced achievements as well as failures in our lives. Both of these play a vital role in our development. We take motivation from our achievements but get demotivated because of failures. Maintaining a balance is important but difficult as well. Failure gives birth to some emotions like sadness, hope and guilt in us which indirectly lead our efforts towards success.
But what is the definition of success? Actually, its definition is subjective as per person.
Everyone wants to achieve success in their lives. In this world, millions of people participate in this marathon race to win the trophy of success. I believe that success is not a success has very deep meaning and responsibility with it. Everyone may say that success is the attainment of wealth, favour or eminence. I believe it is growth, development, improvement and getting better in reality. For me success is the feeling of excitement about what we do, sticking with what matters through hard times, living a life I can be proud of.
I achieved something, initially it might appear as success. If a person fails or experiences rejection it means there is a huge scope of improvement which opens all the doors of success. If we become perfect in everything, we will ultimately lose the scope of improvement. Improvement in our skills, way of presenting skills, duration of our actions, our thoughts, way of observing multiple aspects of everything and most important prioritisation.
To succeed in our lives, elements like consistency, hard work, practice, observation, self-analysis and self-confidence are required. Multiple rejections do not always invite dark nights. Sometimes they help us to inculcate self-motivation to shine brighter. Being successful is not a luxury or fancy characteristic of any person, it is self-satisfaction and contentment which cannot be disregarded by showing off in front of everyone. It happens that the most famous and rich people look successful but they don’t have self-contentment. So, we should try to keep our focus on improvement, and success will be achieved itself.
