Every one of us appreciates ideal
things. We always admire a superior life better than the present life. We want
to accomplish more things that may make our life more complete. But if by
wanting we could have achieved everything in our life then there was no question
of putting effort or hard work. If by mere wishing we could have accomplished
our goals we would never have come to enjoy the beauty of hard work. The harder
we work the better result we get. The better is the result we achieve, the
degree of happiness in us also become higher. Therefore if we want a desired
change in our life, we can’t wait and dream but we have to plan and work.
Work is the
only means:
It is only through work that we
achieve something. It is work that teaches us the value of doing things in the
right order. To get our desired result we have to work in the desired manner.
If we do not value work at par with our goals we can never realize them. It is
work that teaches us sincerity, discipline, punctuality, tolerance,
perseverance etc. All these virtues we can learn only through work. The higher
is our effort, the better we learn these virtues and we uplift ourselves to the
level of our desired change to accomplish something better in our life.
Overcome
laziness:
Between work and you stands laziness.
Between work and you stand the vices like procrastination, the desire for
temporary pleasure which delays or frustrates the direction of our change.
Everyday these vices use to test our willingness and determination to bring our
desired change. If the desire for our change is not strong enough, we won’t be
able to conquer laziness, procrastination and the strong desire for temporary
pleasures. As a result we will not be able to become the change we want to be.
Develop iron
will and determination:
You can never be defeated in any
endeavour, if you have developed your iron will and determination to reach your
aim, goal or the change. Every day you have to make your will stronger, your
determination powerful so that nothing can stop you from reaching your goal or
your desired change. Sometimes fear or doubts will occupy your mind and they
will try to distract you from your tract. They will test you every time. You
have to make yourself strong enough to conquer these vices.
Knowledge is
power:
Ignorance is at the root of all
failures. Remove your ignorance by knowledge. Study each and every single book
to get all the knowledge that you need to reach your goal, to the change and destiny.
Finally it is only knowledge that will lead you to your desired change. It is
only knowledge that can uplift you. Acquire all the knowledge and you are
invincible. You will get power in the form of confidence. You will get power in
the form of intelligence. Therefore study relevant books, keep in touch with
people that can help you to reach your height.
Importance of
a Mentor:
It is also equally important to decide
your desired change, goals or aim in terms of knowledge. Your assessment on
yourself should be true. Wrong assessment or over estimate will ruin your purpose.
It is here that we need guidance from a teacher or a Mentor. A teacher or a
mentor has the capacity to find out your true self. It is therefore, the
importance of a teacher, guru or mentor will always be relevant. To grow, we
need to learn. To learn we always need the assistance of someone who is an
expert in the field. More importantly you could feel with the teacher, guru or
mentor that you have actually achieve your goals.
Never give
up:
The last strategy is to never give up.
Whatever comes on your way, once you have decided to achieve something, ‘never
give up.’ If you make a habit of giving up things, then you will never achieve
your desired goal or change. Stick to your goals at all conditions. Persistence
is the last option. Nothing can take the place of determination and
persistence. Make your faith bigger than your fears. You will be definitely
successful in your life.
