Trang 1How to be successful in life
What we call life is a very complex affair It is not simply
eating Reproducing and finally dying Every creature does
these But in the case of man he has to lead a highly
complicated life It is like going through a maze He is a
social being He has to earn, make a home Look after his
people Attend to his obligations to the society and the
government So in order to be successful in all these he
has to develop certain qualities
Trang 2What do we mean by saying a man is successful? If in his
occupation he can do satisfactorily both for himself and
others then he is successful He must be able to look after
his people and bring up good children If he becomes a
professional man like an engineer, doctor or lawyer,
making money should not be the only criterion; he must
also able to satisfy his clients and be honest at it
In order to be successful one should develop certain
qualities At first he must realize his purpose; in other
words what he would like to be This is the crux of the
Trang 3problem, for the choice does not come to him Parents
decide it very often for them Let us suppose he decides to
be somebody in his life Once having decided he must
work or attaining certain standard in that line Only hard
work would make him fit for the job It is rightly said that it
is 5% inspiration and 95% perspiration One must deserve
before desiring One must remember one’s education
does not stop with the school or college It is a life long
process Professional people must keep themselves up to
date
Trang 4Then one must get on with others In the chess board of
life one may find himself in any position; it maybe the all
powerful queen or simply pawn It must be remembered
that given the chance, even a pawn can destroy a queen
This mean in a complex society, everyone find oneself in a
particular position; there maybe some above and some
below One need not be favouring and flattering those
above and be arrogant with those below ” what can I do
for you” it is correct attitude and having done it go about
your duty In getting on with others sweet temperament is
really an asset; then only other will like to transact with
Trang 5one One must not be easily irritable nor give irritants to
others Then one must be reliable One must be reliable
One maybe clever but is he is not reliable, he can not
achieve success in a great measure because others will
have very little to do with him
Another important quality that would make up for success
is doing things then and there Procrastination is the thief
o time Postponement of doing things means swelling of
work for the next day A small chink maybe easily closed
today but tomorrow it maybe late If we analyse the life of
Trang 6successful people we could easily see they have been
through and never postponed doing things
Still another quality is not to argue By pointing out that, he
has been wrong you are not going to improve matters, on
the other hand you can help him correct, arguing not only
takes away precious time but also cause irritation
Especially one’s superior may not like arguing Instead of
argument, one must be able to meet the situation
something like this “you maybe right, sir” or “this is alright”,
but “what about our alternative” and so on
Trang 7One must be capable of learning from experience One
must be able to learn from the mistakes of others Only
when individuals fail to learn from the past mistakes, they
are ruined History is replete with examples
