They say that life is not a competition, in fact, it is a marathon. The notion persists in human mind that the world is a competition ground each man against the other this has made so many people to do all sorts of impossible things just to succeed in life. Some persons even attempt to cut corners here but allow me to ask you, do you know there is no short cut to success? In High School whenever we did our Mathematics homework my Mathematics Tutor always used to tell us that life is just like doing Mathematics, ensure you follow the right steps which will lead you to get a solution to a problem. What I understood from the statement of this man that there is no need to rush the life we should follow a path which is preplanned and everyone reaches the destination in his own time some may take less time and some may take more. Other people success should not make you feel bad and depressed.
Many a time people start getting jealous and envy when they see others being successful, but all we have to understand is that at one point of time or the other every one of us has tasted success. Often times we just do not consider them as success, yet no matter how insignificant it may be, such achievements look they are success no matter what. We observe our friends purchasing cars, buildings, getting married, getting employed in good multi-national organization, some moving to a new country in order to start a new job but we are still struggling and remaining stagnant in a particular point in life, we should then realize that life is “Turn by Turn” this is a way of telling us to have patient and keep on pushing since our own time would come. They entail perseverance, discipline and time.
