A Cameo on success

Dilip Mukerjea

SUCCESS is seeing through things and seeing things through. No amount of passionate wishing, desperate longing or hopeful pleading can ensure success unless you follow the three-stage process in the loop map to the right. Be confident, for you were born to succeed.

Confidence comes from having goals, taking risks, holding on to our convictions, and building up a small arsenal of successes… and failures. Our failures tell us that it is possible to survive and move on. Our successes reveal that it is possible to prevail in the future. Both these experiences are vital in helping reassure us that in the end, all will be well.

“All men have poetry in their hearts, and it is necessary for them, as much as possible, to express their feelings. For this they must have a medium, moving and pliant, which can refreshingly become their own, age after age. All great languages undergo change. Those languages which resist the spirit of change are doomed and will never produce great harvests of thought and literature. When forms become fixed, the spirit either weakly accepts its imprisonment or rebels. All revolutions consist of the “within” fighting against invasion from “without”… All great human movements are related to some great idea.”~ Rabindranath Tagore

“If you go out into the real world, you cannot miss seeing that the poor are poor not because they are untrained or illiterate but because they cannot retain the returns of their labour. They have no control over capital, and it is the ability to control capital that gives people the power to rise out of poverty.”

“… things are never as complicated as they seem. It is only our arrogance that prompts us to find unnecessarily complicated answers to simple problems.”

~ Muhammad Yunus, Banker to the Poor: Micro-Lending and the Battle Against World Poverty
