Speech as been given on the single word success, book has been written, video has been made, yet we still lives in old days captivated in the lost of ignorance of experience instead of acquiring then knowledge of growth.
SUCCESS, What! How!! When!!! Can we be considered successful?:-
It has been defined in different and very self explanatory ways and have gotten several interpretations for the word SUCCESS.
A definition say: something which happens as a consequence or the outcome or result
Another say: The achievements of one's aim or goal: in fact on the other hand someone said accomplishing what was proposed or having the desired effect, Effect which means the impression left on the mind.
So what then is success? Because it is not money, I know that and it is not physical achievement, am very confident ,It's neither a book written nor rewards received not even a job completed or promotions appointed. Whichever way.
But finally I got one that sweetens my mind: SUCCESS IS ALL ABOUT PERSONAL SATISFACTION..... shiva kumar thekkepat
JOHN C. MAXWELL my mentor
Success is defined Differently by two people but the process remain the same for everyone one Said by my Mentor .John C. Maxwell who personally defined succes as a journey and as knowing your purpose on earth, growing to the maximum of your potential and sowing seeds that benefits others.
The big question remains, what is your satisfactions maybe I should ask the kind of seed that comes from you? Evil or Good????
Human heart is full of corruption and selfish interest, isn't this why we found ourselves in these mess we are today? then how can we be considered successful?
I want us to remember we live in a world, I mean a world where the poor walk miles to find food and painfully the rich walk miles to digest food, if you can't feed hundred try to feed one, just make a positive impact. There is 1,440 minutes in a single day which means, we have 1,440 opportunities to make impact in someone's life either positive or negative the choice is ours.
I want us to know that success is a cheap (god) small letter (g) that gives you pleasure for a seconds before sticking the knives in and throwing you out of heaven,
We can gain from @James altchure who says success dresses up for Halloween and pretends to be that moment, that moment when you've accomplished your BIG thing and you think that's all there was to it, this sojourn here on the planet finishing the big thing and saying, Done" I did my job as a human.
MY POINT HERE
I'm saying, can we see success as what others gain from us? Just have it in mind that it's not the years in your life, but the life in your years that count, confident people don't think about how old they are but about what they can accomplish :do you think you're too young?
Check Anne Frank of Germany who was born in 1929 and died in 1945 even before her 16years birthday of her short life.
She wrote and I quote "I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I've never met. I want to go on living even after my death ..... If a small gurl out there can still be living even after she died of starvation during Second World war, then I tell you my friends living for others is how to truly live
Arthur Brooks
-- Earned success is the key to happiness and helping the poor....Arthur Brooks, he further said, Earned success is the belief that you are creating value in your life and values in the lives of others.Nothing moves in the air
This is another inspiring one value in your life and values in others
read this short poem carefully
THE CHOICE I MAKE
It's D still of D night.
A little breeze may give away d sway of d demons
& a shadow, d watching eyes of d stars.
& the moon.
Alone under the full gaze of the heavenly
I could do anything,
No solely soul will witness my crime,
Except for the stars & the moon.
& perhaps, the breeze that caresses my frame!
Yes I could do anything!
Who says it must be evil?!
Who says I could do no good
Even in d dead of d night
When d hours r thin, finely thin?!
Y should I think of evil
Sitting, alone, under their full gaze?
No one will know but the wind,
& the wind blows & whispers.
No one will see but the stars,
& the stars do tell.
No one will bear witness but the moon,
& even the moon does share!
D secrets are known
For the breeze will undo the lids
D stars will spring them to light
& the moon will show them to the world.
Though it be the still of d night
D secrets will come of age
& all the angels & devils will know!
Then why do I evil that is safe not
Even in d deadliest hour of night?
Y would I not pursue peace
Under the glorious light of day
& do a little good & a little rest
In d dead still of the night?
Finally, I'm saying rise up to the help of others even at the most difficult time of your life, if helping people have caused you trouble, don't let that be the end and you're not a failure, remember FAIL means:- First Attempts In Learning. End is not the end, in fact END means:- Efforts Never Dies" and if you got NO as an answer Don't forget NO stands for :- Next Opportunities. Never get tired of helping .
Those you help on your way up will hold your hand on your way down so that you don't fall. When you're bless financially don't only raise your standard of living, raise your standard of giving as well. Things you do when you can breathe will live forever when you breathe no more.
Remember when your success has attachment with your purpose on earth, growing to the maximum of your potential would make you more influential and please use your influence as a seed for good benefits of others
In conclusion SUCCESS means:- " Sacrifice for United Chance in Community that Enrich Society Service
All am saying is;- If you really want to do something you will find a way doing it but if you don't want to do something you will find an excuse.
