There are many kinds of people who exist in this world. In fact, they come from various backgrounds; different race, nationality and religion. Not only that, people have different personality although they come from the same environment and family.
In terms of human brain, each person has different capability and capacity to store different kinds of information. Some people can attain towards the path of genius. Those special people are in the different world from the average people and obviously they see the world differently.
In spite of that, it does not mean others cannot succeed like them. There are several ways to achieve the same status as them if we work diligently, if we are hard-working and are good in finding chances to become successful. There are no reasons we cannot be the same as them especially in terms of wealth.
There are ways in order to succeed.
Ways to success
Set your goal and focus on it
First thing first before anything, we must set our goal so that we can achieve it. People without goals will never succeed in their life. The first step in our life is to improve our life. After that, focus on your goal. Don’t ever waver when faced with challenges, but, be more firm in making your decision. From that, we can gain new experience and have multiplicity of choice if we ever encounter similar trial. One must have strong mental endurance especially if something bad were to happen while achieving the goal. That is just an obstacle that must be overcome in order to improve ourselves. Therefore, never give up as it’s the most crucial weapon for one to succeed.
Never look back unless to learn from it
In order to succeed, one cannot look back and be satisfied with current situation before we meet our goal unless if we want to learn something from our experience. Experience is an essential ingredient to success and it works in most people because they learn their lesson through the past. Never make the same mistake. Also, one must move on from their past in order to go to the next level.
Learn from others’ mistake and never do it again
There is a saying, “average mind learn from their own experience while wise mind learn through others’ mistake”. It shows that, we must become smart in making decisions especially when we deal with other people. Look, read and learn from other people’s mistakes so we do not have to experience and share the miserable mistakes like them. In this situation, being smart and clever is the most important part to us all. Not only to learn from other’s mistake, but one can also learn from ancient people in history. We can put past achievement as our guidance to success or we can put our forever idol, Prophet Muhammad as our guidance. Learning from his action obviously can make us more successful be it in here, and also in the hereafter.
Never forget God and your parents
The most important part is, no matter whether we are still working and planning our successful future or already succeed, we should never forget to thank God because He makes us healthy enough to work on our dream or already achieved our dream goal and after that, giving the bigger thank you to our loyal supporters from the birth – our parents. Without God and them, we will never succeed. Also, we should not be successful in this world only, we also must succeed in the hereafter where that place will be our final destination. To become successful in hereafter, our routine must align with the law of Allah. Â Only then, we can please Allah and in the end, achieved Heaven.
Help others in need
As a fellow Muslim who share the same earth with other people, we should help other who are in need. Being generous will never make you become less successful. In fact, you secure your seat in Paradise as long as you are sincere and confident with Allahs promises. With that, not only that you can succeed in this world but also in the hereafter.
Again, not only being genius or having good brain alone is everything, one must have a healthy body and mind. A good body is a must to all people, after all. That’s why healthy body is the winner of all. ***
