INTRODUCTION

We always have dreams. They can be ruined or boring. Our goal is to plan how we can make these dreams come true. There is a lot of hope, but getting the real picture takes determination, hard work, dedication and self-control. Of course, if the road is easy and less stressful, you should of course do your best to make your dream come true, even if it is a little rough and you have to keep running hard along the road. Everyone has a strategy for success, and no one likes failure, but it’s just an unexpected occurrence that can affect anyone.

First of all, we start planning from an early age, be it doctors, lawyers, engineers, entrepreneurs, or many others. Fortunately, some left and others objected. This does not mean that we have to keep working without a plan, it just means that we do not need the result to always dance to our tunes. But if you remember the day when the teacher asked you what you want in the future, he designed an image of you and your friends along with all your dreams. This dream makes you work day and night to meet your expectations. Expectation is always a feeling or belief in how successful someone or something is. Because we spend a lot of time chasing our dreams and have a clear idea of what to expect in the future, it is difficult to give up on those dreams too quickly.

When you succeed, Does that mean you are better than others?

My answer to this question is in the negative, and I encourage you to continue to do so. Feeling superior when moving to a higher level is more than a mistake. Especially when it comes to helping you plan and meet expectations. I don’t think you did it yourself. Success makes people happy, and kind-hearted people should always remember that there is a wall behind success. These people you look down on can help you if you never thought so, or they are even the ladder that takes you there. Not all fingers are created equal, but among successful people there are many wild creatures who always cherish their origins. They hold the chain and attach another dry pipe to the drilled hole.

In my opinion, you aren’t better just because your plans works as expected, rather you fall among the lucky ones that where dragged into the beats of the world. It’s up to you after hitting or focusing with the lights on.

When you fail, does that mean you’re a failure?

I answered the above in the negative. Failure does not mean that you are a failure, it always gives us a chance to start over. It’s inevitable, annoying and pessimistic. This happens in our daily meetings, at work, at home, at school and in our plans, but it is an opportunity for you to act wisely when you start over.

Key figures who succeeded despite failures:

Charles Darwin; During his school years, he was considered an average student and gave up his medical career. He began an extensive study of nature and discovered how the world is understood today. His work laid the foundation for the book On the Origin of Species and forever changed the way people view our experience.

Michael Jordan; He was kicked out of the high school basketball team (heartbreakingly) and became one of the greatest basketball players in the history of the game. He quoted:

“I have missed more than 9000 shots in my career, I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasion, I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot, and I missed. I have failed over and over and over in my life, and that is why I succeeded”.

I had myself as an example, I never had an intention of joining a five-year program because I hated time-consuming activities. But I found out that I was studying law.

Some Key Factors Leading to Success

If you want to be succeed, there are some factors you need to consider that will help you achieve your goals. It includes; Self confidence, perseverance, dedication, prayer, etc.
Self Confidence: Some people do not believe in failure and are afraid of it. They don’t even try and, having failed the first time, rarely achieve anything else. You should always know your strengths and weaknesses and have a positive image. Don’t lose confidence in failure. Much better than anyone who hasn’t tried it. You can live to tell stories from your experiences and influence the knowledge of others.

Patience: To be successful in life requires perseverance. Patience is the ability to cope with difficult situations. It involves perseverance in the face of delay, tolerance of provocation without responding in disrespect/anger; or forbearance when under strain, especially when faced with long-term difficulties. Patience, perseverance and diligence create an unrivaled combination of success.

Dedication: Behind every successful person must be dedication. Be prepared to devote a lot of time and energy to something because it matters. Take your time and focus on what you are doing. no matter how simple it is. Hard work and determination to win or lose are the keys to success. Regardless of whether we win or lose, it can be said without exaggeration that we have done everything possible to accomplish this task.

Prayer: Prayer can always be the primary key used to successfully unlock. With all your patience, determination and perseverance, the results may not be. This suggests that you left the hoe and came to the yard. Always learn to pray after hard work. Then you will definitely see a change.

In conclusion, never accept a mistake and never let your heart learn from it. Always do your best and never tire of trying. Failure always means strength, and failure always means weakness. Some people are so admirable, despite their setbacks, that they continue to pursue their goals and are praised for their perseverance and dedication, but those who do have nothing to learn from. You must always make your dreams come true in order to understand that achieving anything requires faith and faith in yourself, vision and hard work. Remember, your faith does its best. Martin Luther King Jr.: I have to say this; “If you can’t fly, run; if you can’t walk, go. If you cannot walk, you must crawl, but you must keep moving, no matter what you do. Failure and rejection are small bums in a speed to success.
