In current\nsituation, we want to solve every problem very quickly. Hence, we do everything\nin stress, hurry and even use shortcuts, which may end up in failure. We tend\nto forget that success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in and day out.\nWinston Churchill once said, \u201cIf you\u2019re going through hell, keep going\u201d. One\nhas to keep on moving, planning next actions and acting on them with confidence\nand persistence. It is not necessary that one has to be intelligent, or speedy\nin order to succeed. A person who walks towards the right path slowly but\nsteadily, wins the race.&nbsp; Success comes\nto those who are steady even though they may be slow. It was a meticulous\nplanning of Chanakya who was insulted by Magadh king Dhanananda. To take\nrevenge, he slowly and steadily entered the Dhanananda kingdom to uproot him\nand his entire establishment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One\nof the greatest advantages of being slow and steady is that one learns the\nthings in a much better way than one who observes the things in a hurry. If we\nare going through any process steadily and closely, then we can understand the\nsituation deeply.&nbsp; It gives more time to\nplan and act strategically. This helps to deal the problem in a far better way\nthan the one who does all the work in a hurry and always misses fine details of\nany process. Persistent learning always increases your ability to handle\nsituations. It was, Pandavas\u2019 12 years of endurance in forest and one year work\nincognito to make themselves prepare to fight against Kaurvas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cProcrastination\nis the thief of time.\u201d So being slow in what we do is a smart way of doing\nthings rightly, rather than delay the work as we wish and waste time. Success\nis a reachable target if we are determined and work towards it regularly. Even\na person with average talent can achieve success through persistent efforts.\nNobody is born champion. Champions practise hour after hour, day after day,\nrepetition after repetition until they reach their destination. It does not\nmatter if you are slow. What matters the most, is how much you learn and\nimprove upon it. Someone rightly said, \u201cIf you can\u2019t fly, then run, if you\ncan\u2019t run then walk, if you can\u2019t walk, then crawl, but whatever you do you\nhave to keep moving forward.\u201d You have to be with strong mind and don\u2019t get\nshattered with your failures and others\u2019 success, but should focus on constant\nimprovement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Bill Bradley, \u201cAmbition is the path to success.\nPersistence is the vehicle you arrive in.\u201d An average person quits after he is\nrewarded for his short-term efforts because he lacks perseverance. A successful\nperson requires positive energy for consistent work. A consistent action is\nbetter than no action. Therefore, you should not be complacent at instant\ngratification and understand that complete success is a long-term effort. It\nmust be clearly understood that if success were so simple and easy to achieve,\nthen everybody would have been successful today. \n\nTo sum up, I would like to say that there is no alternate to hard work,\ndedication and determination. If you do things in a hurry, take shortcuts etc.,\nthere is always a chance to miss the train to success. Slow and steady approach\nis the key to win any race. The story of victory of slow tortoise over fast\nrabbit is the motivation for all of us.\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Success is the best destination but not all people are able to reach there.
