A large number of people like to be called successful, even with clear indication human beings like and wish to connect themselves with successful people. Who does not like good stuff? Everyone would like to enjoy everything but will not sacrifice anything. Success is not built in a day, it is just a product of long perseverance, endurance, and challenges.
The definition of success differs from person to person. My own definition of success might be different from yours but the fact still remains that achieving an objective or goal generalizes the definition of success. Working hard only as sacrifice might not work for you because it should not be the only and main to push for success. Without a doubt, you need a spiritual tool called ‘prayer’. The key to success, as I believe, is the addition of both hardworking and prayer. Though, some people only believe in the intelligence or smartness to achieve success.
However, your smartness and being intelligent can make you a successful being but you have to go through some rigorous processes and face some challenges. There are some sacrifices you need to make to achieve that height no matter how small it is.
While one of my friends does indeed say, in the realm of success there will be no negotiating, you must pay money for the price. Never ask for a deep discount in that market, no book me down, no credit, kindly pay the full purchase price in order so that you can enjoy that commodity called SUCCESS.
To achieve success, there are many costs and sacrifices that person would make. Listed here are just a few of the cost or what you will experience when you are on course for the success trip.
1. Late Nights and Early Mornings
Laziness can never be attributed to any human being who seeks the gateway of success. A success seeker goes past due in bed and awakens up early in the morning to stay the mission. No doubt, you will spend much time late in the nights. Taking students as a case study, students need to read overnight to get fully prepared for any examination.
2. Loss of Associates and Few Good Friends
In the course of pursuing of success, some friends will leave you while some will stay with you. You might even be surprised that those you think are your best friends leave you. That is, those that leave you are not part of your plan to attain your success. Not all friends are important so you need to lose some friends in order to focus on the journey of success.
3. You Think Alone
Most of the times you feel only and abandoned. Don’t be afraid at that moment, it is a crucial moment to gear up and follow-up the right cause. It is merely a subject of time when you succeed, you will see people surround you. There are many things to sacrifice to achieve your objectives, for this reason, your thinking is very important.
Your level of thinking plays a crucial role in achieving your aims and be successful in life. You might it difficult that many people don’t understand your thinking, just keep going. The road to success land is not smooth – your positive thinking and determination can help you to overcome any challenge.
No success story is sweet without sacrifice story. Many stories you read about successful men or women is sweet but ask them what they have passed through, they will tell it was not an easy job. The road was rough, tough and many obstacles were passed through. You have to keep your head high, be determined and lose not your focus which makes your confidence level as high as anything to achieve your set objective or goal.
It is not too late to come back to the round table to draw that plan that would make your journey to success workable.
