Success

I’m really sorry I was unable to write to my blog since last 2 month. I was really disappointed with every thing. I don’t know why, someone hacked my Gmail because of that I was unable to log in to my Gmail as well as my Blogs. L Finally with the help of my friend and Gmail team I’m back… Hope to start with some positive way. Just read it and give your ideas as well.

I have seen so many people struggle in life to succeed. They do everything possible to be successful. To them, success depends only on the amount of hard work they can put into their work.
This set of people has read the stories of so many successful people in their chosen fields and they believe they can be successful too in their own chosen fields. But it is sad that they don't always get the required result.

There is another set of people who believe success is meant only for certain classes of people. This set of people believes they cannot and will never achieve success no matter how hard they try. To them, their names have been removed from the success dictionary (if there is anything like that). Before I say more about these two sets of people. Let us look at who a successful person is.

Who is a successful person?
Success is, according to the Oxford advanced learners dictionary, "the achievement of a desired aim, fame, wealth or social position" So a successful person is somebody who has been able to achieve an aim, fame, wealth or social position.
This is actually very correct but it is not a complete definition.

This is however, my own definition of a successful person: A successful person is somebody who has been able to start a project (no matter how small it is) and see it to the end and should also have guided quiet a number of people to bring their own projects to completion. And most importantly that person has to have satisfaction. I believe this is a complete definition of success.
People can have different kind of definitions for the success. I think it depend on person. Any way just opens your eyes and sees around the world. There are million of persons who have become successful persons. Go through there life’s and take some thing form it. Best wishes for your success.

You're right! How each person defines success is according to his own satisfaction and happiness. We can decide our own destiny. To be mediocre or to be successful. It is all in our mind.

As Henry Ford said, "If you think you can, you can and if think you can't, you're right".

Why some are successful and others are not, they are all in the fundamentals of the Law of Attraction.

Dear Friend,

I too agree with your saying, people defines success differently. for some it is money, for some it is self satisfaction, etc. But yet there is something I wanted to mention, most of them cant be successful as they work according to someone else's definition. everyone must think about their own destiny, and have to develop themselves without being influenced by another.

anyway good post.

It's interesting how people define success. I found your post on a blogging site and wanted to read it more. It's a thought-provoking topic and I just started a site about it too. I want to see what the public thinks about success also.
