SUCCESS

Failure happens. It happens all the time, to everyone, and sometimes can have a bad effect on us depending on the way we react to it. Failure, like many other things, is something we have got used to through the years. To some it has become a lifestyle, an ingrained habit we just can’t break if we don’t have the right mind set. The greatest example, when it comes down to failure, is the American inventor Thomas Edison. He failed more than 10,000 times (I am still amazed at that number!) before he created the light bulb. Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. In fact, our knowledge is not enough, we need to apply what we have learned and willingness is not enough, we need to act. Problems are part of our lives. We need to be confident, start where we are, use whatever resources we have and do the best we can to succeed. Hard work, dedication, and the determination to achieve something can give us satisfaction. Success is not the key to happiness but the happiness is the key to success. If we love what we are doing, then we are successful. Success is not about money or material wealth, but more on sense of satisfaction. It is the process of undergoing failure to failure without even losing enthusiasm. If we want to make things better, then we are the only person we can rely on to fix our problems. Whatever happens, life is a matter of choice. Everybody deserves a second chance. We need to forgive and forget. Everything happens for a reason. Nobody is perfect. We commit mistakes every now and then. But it does not mean that we are bad. We learn from our mistakes. It is about giving ourselves a chance to get over our problems and move forward.
