Success

 What do you attribute Success to.......

When I was in school, each time I came first...whether curriculum or extra curricular.....
I attributed it to my Hard work,Efforts of Regular practice, Dedication.

When I gave my 12th boards and pre medical enterance exam,...
I fell short of just 4 marks in One subject, Physics,....I couldn't get seat to the best medical college in Mumbai.
But I could get a medical seat .....and in a good medical college, MGIMS, Sewagram.
I attributed it to my Luck.
It was just bad luck,....rest subjects I had scored 97 and 99 out of 100( Biology and Chemistry respectively.
But same time,I was lucky to get a good Rank in pre medical enterance exam and secure a seat in one of the finest medical college.
Luck played a lot important factor many times in life later too....Good and Bad results both.
Then came the phase of life where many factors apart from Talent,Skill,Hard work and Luck.....attributed to Success.
Power,Position, Wealth..attributed to the outcome of results.
Later,when,more projects and Aspirations came in life....one more aspect got added to above criteria which attributed to better outcome. Marketing.
As society was moving more towards Media and Digitalisation.....
One had to be always relevant and visible to public.
Attention Span of public became short and inclination became more to glutz,glamor,billboards.....and Reels,podcasts.....

Out of Sight...out of mind
is the current Mantra.

You need to be ever in News.....to be Successful.

Finally,after one has tried everything and done every " Necessary " aspect for Success......
Talent
Hard Work
Luck
Marketing......

Each aspect loses its relevance in chronological order when we move ahead in life.....
Each aspect from  bottom to top gets more relevance with age.

Lastly,when you are done with career ,ambitions,Aspirations in Life ......

You finally conclude.....
Success in Life is attributed to Destiny.
Destiny decides your outcome of life......no matter how much Talent,Hard work, Luck,Marketing......you may have the Power, Wealth, Position......
In the end it's all about " Destiny ".

A story on this......

A Business man gathered skills for a business.
He worked Hard to uplift his business.
He brought in Good Luck too by pooja, prayers,stones....everything. He did lot of Marketing to promote his business.
He earned lot of money.

But Each day....how much ever he would make profits....expenses made him spend.
The net income from Day 1 of his business always has been Rs 20/-

He wanted more.
He asked God to do something.
God said" Tomorrow, I will come you in some form.You have to catch me.How much you manage to catch ,will turn to Gold."

Next day whole day,he waited for God to come.Nobody came.
Tired,he went home.
Few minutes before Midnight, a snake slithered suddenly into his room.He got scared and climbed on the bed.
The snake waited for same time and started moving towards a hole at the end of the room.
Suddenly, the Man thought" Is This God in form of Snake?"
He jumped to catch the snake.
A part of tail came in his hand.It turned to Gold.
Next day,he sold it.....

He got Rs 20/-
It's upto you ,dear Friends, how you define Success.
That attributes to your Success in Life.
