Success

What is success?

1) To me, success is what you achieve in a given time frame. It is a measure of how much you accomplish within a certain interval in your lifetime which can also translated into reaching a life goal. Success can be as broad as completing a massive task as a group or it can also be defined by the contributions made by one person of a team of many. Success can easily be observed and achieved within the workplace, or in our personal life.

This will motivate you to learn how to get success in your life!

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!"

2) Nature has significant importance in my life because I have learned farming since I was 8 years old and I respect nature greatly. My family has over 100 acres of land in India. I was so attracted to nature because I was always working in my fields. While my grandparents on my dads side were illiterate, there was not a single source of education in their time. So, they all had to learn farming because nature doesn’t boss us around in order to get paid. In India, farming was my whole life and it was the main source of income for my family. Krakauer quotes “The core of mans' spirit comes from new experiences”. I agree with Krakauer because if we want to achieve something greater in life, we must try out new things and react accordingly. For instance, education isn’t the only way to earn money and there are other options available. I am more open minded now than ever before because there will be times when I need to change my carrier goal to adjust my needs.
           
                   Nature seems to have great importance for Chris because he wanted to go in the wild to get away from his family and friends. He was tired of living under pressure of others. He wanted to have simple and ordinary life just alone with nature. Krakaeur says “If we admit that human life can be ruled by reason, then all possibility of life is destroyed”. I agree with Krakauer because life isn’t life if we are forced to live under harsh conditions and always having told what to do. When people are under bad influence, they tend to keep everything to themselves. Chris felt as if he was constricted under influence of the society. He felt the need to connect with nature to relieve his stress and move on to a greater goal.
           
                  Nature holds great value for Chris because he wanted to live by his own rules. He felt if nature has created humans, we should be free from any kind of government. He hated politics and government because he doesn’t want his goals to be influenced by anyone except himself and nature. He wanted to spend every moment of his life in mother nature and he seemed to like it a lot. Chris says “12 years? Twelve years - to paddle down a river?” I agree with Chris because mother nature has created us and we have an equal right to enjoy it with no extra charge. It is ridiculous that we own parts of mother nature that are supposed to be free to everyone and we are putting price on nature itself. 
          
                 Nature holds great importance for Chris because he doesn’t want anything in his life that has a monetarily value. He feels that we are born with nothing and we must live and die with nothing. He was tired of getting everything easily in his life. He wants to live in nature and use only nature as his source of food and shelter. Chris says “I read somewhere... how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong, but to feel strong... to measure yourself at least once”. I agree with Chris because life isn’t all about fame and fortune. If we don’t feel proud of our work and we are working everyday just to get our paycheck, there is no point of living such life. Furthermore, if we don’t feel strong about who we are and what we do, we have little to no meaning in life.
