"Confidence comes naturally with success but success comes to only those who are confident"
Every person in this world is not born with a silver spoon in their mouth. This is the best way to describe what a great economist God is since he has not given everything to everyone.
All of us want to achieve success in our lives but it is only a handful of us who achieve it.
So why is it this way? The answer to this is very simple. There are people in the world who dream about things and live in their fantasy world, such people cannot accept failure and whenever they fail, they say that it wasn’t their luck.
Whereas there are people who live in real world and take life in a practical manner.
Such people have a tremendous self confidence in then and the idea of failure never daunts them. They believe it to be a stepping stone to success.
Therefore the way to success becomes easier for them.
Success is spelled as SUCCESS. If the word ‘U’ is taken from it- the word becomes meaningless. So it is you who is an important ingredient of success. You cannot rely on anyone but yourself to achieve what you want. If we lack confidence we can never keep our mind busy with work and hence increase chances of flaws.
It should be remembered that an empty mind is a welcome door for the devil to enter.
A confident person with an aim always thinks about the best possible ways to achieve his ambition. By being confident we can find our own ways and can bend opportunities since ‘success is the child of audacity and should be molded through opportunity.
The ultimate problem with us is that we don’t have a goal in our lives due to which we keep making excuses for our goal. But it is essential for us to have a goal in our life and we should always remember that, "it is never too late to choose our goals, we can start just now."
I have developed this extreme confidence within me but I am also proud of the fact that it has never developed into over confidence.
The confidence inside me always compels me to take on the toughest of challenges in life for I know that my efforts will not go in vein and my perseverance will sooner or later bear fruits. No one can make you feel inferior without your consent that is what confidence teaches you.
Thus we can say that, "Confidence comes naturally with success but success comes to those who are confident."
