There lies diverse definitions for the word “Success”, but one remains
encompassing. It is the “achievement of a goal”.
Success is what
everybody desires. However, not everyone succeeds. Briefly, I will highlight some points responsible for this.
- The lack of determination. Determination makes a person to focus on fulfilling the goal even when there are hurdles. Having the desire alone is useless. One needs dogged determination because the road to success is not an easy one. Therefore, desire without determination will lead to failure, the opposite of success.
- Procrastination. The thief of time comes in. It is opportunities’ natural assasin. We make use of wise words but we do not apply them. We postpone that which is needed to be done to another time, even when we do not know what we would face in the next minute, nor the next second. Most times, something that would hinder us from fulfilling the postponed task might come up. The moment you have something in mind to do, do it.
- Laziness. Here is another enemy of success. Most times, people procrastinate
because they are lazy. Success is the result of the GOOD WORKS YOU HAVE DONE. How would one get the positive results when he is lazy to work? You will only reap what you sow. (Even the Bible says “only a diligent man will stand before kings.” Proverbs 22:29)
In conclusion, do well to obey all the good commandments you are to observe. Obey God’s rules. His rules are for good and the best. They are necessary for any man to succeed. Therefore, if man fails to obey Him, failure definitely knocks on the door. At a particular point in time, such person would not be able to move on without God.
God is the giver of success but He often gives those who worth it. He gives grace to succeed in all ramifications (spiritually, etc) and continually.
For optimum success, You need God, You need Jesus.
Shalom!
