THE SECRET OF SUCCESS

 

There was once a boy who wanted to seek the secret of success. One day

he approached a wise man living up in the mountain. When he found the

wise man at the hut, he asked, 'Wise man, can you tell me the secret

to becoming successful in life?' The wise man was silent for a while.

After a moment of silence, the wise man led the young lad to a nearby

river. They kept walking into the river until the boy's head was fully

submerged in the water. The boy struggled to keep his head above the

water. To his astonishment, the wise man did not help him. Instead,

the wise man held the boy's head in the water. After a few minutes the

wise man pulled the boy out of the water and they proceeded to walk

back to the hut. At the hut the wise man asked the young boy what he

desired most when his head was submerged in water.

 

To this the young boy quickly responded, 'Of course, I wanted to

breathe, you old fool!' To which the wise man replied, 'Son, if you

desire success as much as you wanted to breathe, then you would have

found the true secret of success.'

 

SUCCESS PRINCIPLES

 

Success is a matter of choice. If we have enough strong reasons, there

is nothing that we cannot do. Once we have the reasons to do

something, we will surely find the ways to do it. A mere wish would

not make things happen. It is a burning desire, turned into an

obsession that will generate the energy to bring you to achieve any

goal that you may desire.
