FAILURES ARE THE STEPS TOWARDS SUCCESS:


It is dedicated to Dr. Abdul Kalam as one of his quotes is the source of inspiration.

Numerous obstacles may come in our way to success which advocates that hard work is needed. Failure must not be the cause of alarm but it should be our guide to improve the critical areas. It has given us a chance to learn from our blunders and it is not an ignorable benefit. Same thoughts give birth to same acts and same results so we must find a different way.  Failure tells us that there was lack of actions to be taken. Circumstances never quite fit. In the real world circumstances are not exactly suitable. When we fail to achieve the goal and fall we must bounce back. Failure is a step towards the success. We should remember that persistent efforts and strong determination is the mother of success. It is never to be forgotten that success starts where the comfort zone ends. We should stop to react to our failure in a wrong way rather develop thick skin and dust off its marks and believe in extra efforts. Failure should not paralyze or faze us.
There are number of examples that emphasize, before reaching to the fame of being well established persons people failed in their lives. Honda an engineer was denied job before establishing his two wheeler business.  Ford before establishing a well known motor company failed a number of times. Walt Disney was said that he lacked good ideas and imagination but proved opposite of the blots.  Bill gates failed but later created his global Microsoft Empire. Charles Darwin a well known scientist was earlier considered below normal standard of intellect.  Albert Einstein was considered mentally handicapped but won the noble prize. Socrates was ridiculed to death. Newton was also not appreciated. Edison was told that he was too stupid to learn anything but later he designed the light bulb. Winston Churchill before becoming Prime minister of United Kingdom faced political failure. Abraham Lincoln failed a number of times to get public offices before becoming the greatest leader. Opera Winfrey one of the most iconic faces on TV suffered many career setbacks earlier. Elvis Presley and Beatles were refused many a time before reaching at the top. Benjamin in spite of hardships invented bifocals. Mahatma Gandhi, Tata, Ambani, Gaga, Amitabh Bachchan, Patoudi, Modi all suffered in their lives.
If we keep the name of above said persons in mind we can easily face the road bumps, fuel the drive to success and actualize the map of our dreams.
