In the journey of life, one is bound to encounter storms, tribulations and challenges in a bid to achieve desired goals. Life wasn't merry for the ‘who-is-who’ in today’s world. The business tycoons, political bigwigs and talented footballers all beat odds to go down in the annals of history as heroes and heroines.
Though she was repeatedly abused sexually at a tender age, Oprah Winfrey runs the biggest TV show and ranks among the richest in the world. She never allowed her past to sabotage her dreams. She overcame the difficulties of life to be where she is today. Lionel Messi worked as a waiter in order to raise money for his training and today, his performance on the pitch is amazing. The accounts of successful men like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Ben Carson and many more were constituted by a bitter past which they endured and used as a stepping stone to levels of excellence.
Success comes when you do what you love to do and get committed to being the best in your field. Yes, there are many amidst us who may be feeling low now. Life may not be appealing according to your expectation but a comrade’s journey will be filled with mountains to climb and there will be battles that you will have to fight. However, victory or defeat is upon you to decide. How can you expect to win if you never tried?
If you truly desire to succeed in life, then remember the value of time, the pleasure of working hard, dignity of simplicity, the worth of character and the power of kindness. Learn the obligation of duty and the influence and virtue of being a good example. Happy is the traveller who is able to discern the pitfalls in his path for he can avoid them. Know your weakness and transform it into strength and do not despair, for the light is just at the end of the tunnel.
