Perseverance is the key to success

One single word says it all !!!

Everyone dreams of achieving big goals in life which will make them feel proud and stay energetic (at least for sometime) in life, but not all of them will be able to march towards it.

One can quote tons of reasons for not being able to make it...I feel among many good things, perseverance is a virtue we all need to achieve great successes in life and to achieve things which might seem impossible to us today.

If you feel that you can't make it because you are facing obstacles or discouragements in your path the best way to come out of the feeling is to take inspiration from others who made things possible which seem to be impossible...it can be mountaineer who climbed the Everest after repeated setbacks or your father or sister who challenged themselves to come out of their comfort zone and made wonders in thier own careers despite of facing hurdles on their path.

Taking inspiration from others experiences in life will give you the confidence that you too can reach your goal which looks impossible today :-)

Independence vs Interdependence

Read a short story today which I could resonate the most, so wanted to share with you folks...here is how it goes...

A young girl and her father were walking along a forest path. At some point, they came across a large tree branch on the ground in front of them. The girl asked her father, “If I try, do you think I could move that branch?” Her father replied, “I am sure you can, if you use all your strength”.
The girl tried her best to lift or push the branch, but she was not strong enough and she couldn't move it. She said, with disappointment, “You were wrong, dad. I can't move it”. “Try again with all your strength,” replied her father.
Again, the girl tried hard to push the branch. She struggled but it did not move. “Dad, I cannot do it,” said the girl. Finally her father said, “Young lady, I advised you to use 'all your strength'. You didn’t ask for my help.

Moral: Our real strength lies not in independence, but in interdependence.

I always believe that interdependence plays a vital role in bringing out full efficiencies in us... But again its up to one's personal opinion as many of my friends always believe in working in silos or solving problems all by oneself or in short being independent :-)
