Success
1.Success is
a process. It began with a dream, ambition and proceeded with a high level of
confidence for someone who wants to succeed.
2. This
process will only be complete if it is followed by an action plan. Continuous
improvements made on the plan, increasing steadily until it reaches the maximum
level of satisfaction.
3.The most
important thing is that the person who wants to achieve success should not be
satisfied to just be in the comfort zone.
Those who are not satisfied being
in the comfort zone will minimize their chances of failure and maximize their
chances to succeed.
Reality in Life
1.Being
comfortable usually dampens effort to improve and increase our level of
success. We lost the opportunity to identify all our weaknesses. We are swayed
away with the fruits of our success.
2.A frog
will eventually die without it realizing when the container full of water he is
in, is slowly being heated. The warmer
the water, the more comfortable the frog
becomes. This frog who is snuggling in the container filled with water, face a
sudden death when the water slowly
reaches boiling point.
3.In order
not to face the same fate as the frog, we need to be alert and mindful all the
time. When the water reaches boiling point, there is no way the frog can save
itself. It is fated to die. Comparatively,
we will also not be able to act when it is too late to do anything. This in
reality is what we are experiencing and faced with. We have this habit of
thinking that we have all the time in the world to remedy our mistakes.
4. More
often than not we hear phrases like, “its ok, lets wait a while and enjoy
first. When the time comes we repent and ask Allah SWT for forgiveness”. Our
repentance will only be accepted by Allah, SWT when we are in a healthy state
of mind. When death comes knocking, the doors for repentance will be tightly
shut.
Tips
1.Don’t be
satisfied too fast. Don’t be boastful too fast. Don’t be too quick to claim
success. Don’t be comfortable too early. Always assume all the time that our quest for success has not ended.
Always assume all the time that we have unfinished business that we need to
attend to. Always assume all the time that our performance need to be checked
and improved.
2.The people
around us will usually report the good stuff. We too would like to hear the positive
things only. We always reprimand the staff that reported the negative things.
In actual fact the bitter stuff is the medicine to cure us. That is our fault, we
just like the sweet and things that look good on the surface. We forget that, the
sweet things will slowly make us obese and die of heart attack.
3.We are
protected from being exposed to negative things. We need to have our own spy.We
need to have an independent investigative system, to obtain information about
our performance, our department’s performance and our company’s performance.
4.This is
not the humane spy but rather the spy in the form of an early warning trigger system. This system will pull us back from daydreaming about our
success.
5.These
measures are all important to avoid falling and being trapped in the comfort
zone. The zone that not only can kill a frog without any intellectual capacity
but the same fate will befall to intellectual
people like us. We need to be alert at all times ,we need to think big dream
high and have a strong heart.
