Success | Успех |
Success is very important in every person’s life. It is something that we achieve after having made certain effort. The meaning of success has changed and evolved over time. Today people connect it mainly with abundance of money and luxurious possessions. | Успех очень важен в жизни каждого человека. Это то, чего мы достигаем, приложив некоторые усилия. Смысл успеха менялся и развивался с течением времени. Сегодня его связывают в основном с обилием денег и роскошных принадлежностей. |
However, recent researches have shown that money has little to do with success. I know that the winner of the Nobel Prize can be considered successful, although he doesn’t get lots of money for it. The person who makes an effort to save endangered animals can be considered successful, although he’s been only spending money, not earning them. There are people who create masterpieces in the fields of art, music or literature. They can stay unknown during their life and earn little money. However, when their work gets wide recognition, they become successful. | Тем не менее, недавние исследования показали, что деньги не имеют ничего общего с успехом. Я знаю, что лауреат Нобелевской премии может считаться успешным, хотя он не получал много денег за это. Человек, который приложил усилия, чтобы спасти вымирающих животных, может считаться успешным, хотя он только тратил деньги, а не зарабатывал их. Есть люди, которые создают шедевры в области искусства, музыки или литературы. Они могут оставаться неизвестными в течение своей жизни и зарабатывать мало денег. Однако когда их работа получает широкое признание, они становятся успешными. |
According to the latest research success is connected with genes. Some people are more successful than others because they are born in happier families. Other than that, spouses often get more successful than single people. Friends and family are very important for gaining success. Good relations with close people lead to success and happiness. Being attractive is rather important for reaching success. However, plastic or cosmetic surgeries don’t give the same effect. Helping others and being involved in some socially useful work is also a way to success. | Последние исследования связывают успех с генами. Некоторые люди более успешны, чем другие, потому что они родились в более счастливых семьях. Кроме того, супружеские пары часто более успешны, чем одинокие люди. Друзья и семья очень важны для достижения успеха. Хорошие отношения с близкими людьми ведут к успеху и счастью. Привлекательный внешний вид весьма важен для достижения успеха. Однако, пластиковые или косметические операции не обеспечивают того же эффекта. Помощь другим и участие в каком-то общественно полезном труде — это также путь к успеху. |
Psychologists state that those who have interesting hobbies have more chances to become successful. These are just general tips which we may consider or not. The most important thing is to define how we see success. | Психологи утверждают, что те, у кого есть интересные увлечения, имеют больше шансов стать успешными. Это лишь общие советы, которые мы можем учитывать или нет. Самое главное определиться с тем, каким мы видим успех. |

Successful person |
Успешный человек |
People always judge the life of other people. They think about their income, private life, work, hobby and other things. They judge the age, the appearance and the way of life. We think that only celebrities suffer from the attention to their life. However it is not the case. |
Люди всегда судят о жизни других людей. Они думают об их доходах, личной жизни, работе, хобби и прочем. Они судят о возрасте, внешности и образе жизни. Мы думаем, что только знаменитости страдают от внимания к своей жизни. Однако это не так. |
According to the public opinion, some people are successful and other people are not. But what are the criteria of success? I think if you ask people about it, most of them will name money and glory. Maybe, it is obvious because we are used to numbering celebrities and businessmen to successful people. |
По мнению общественности, некоторые люди успешны, а другие нет. Но каковы критерии успеха? Я думаю, если вы спросите людей об этом, большинство из них назовут деньги и славу. Может быть, это очевидно, потому что мы привыкли относить знаменитостей и бизнесменов к успешным людям. |
I think that such criteria as money and fame are quite general. Some people can get much money in a sinister manner and be famous for bad things and almost no one respect them. I think it is hardly possible to name such people successful. Successful people are those who achieve high results in the particular field and sometimes success can be temporary. For example, someone can be a successful student. He or she gets excellent marks, takes part in many conferences, wins different contests and so on. Can such student be a successful person? Of course, he or she can be such person. However this person can be a successful one only when he or she studies and then be an ordinary worker. |
Я думаю, что такие критерии, как деньги и слава, довольно общие. Некоторые люди могут получить много денег нечестным путем и иметь дурную славу, и почти никто их не уважает. Думаю, вряд ли можно назвать таких людей успешными. Успешные люди – это те, кто добивается высоких результатов в конкретной области, а иногда успех может быть временным. Например, кто-то может быть успешным студентом. Он получает отличные оценки, участвует во многих конференциях, выигрывает различные конкурсы и так далее. Может ли такой студент быть успешным человеком? Конечно, он может быть таким человеком. Однако этот человек может быть успешным только тогда, когда он учится, а затем стать обычным работником. |
To sum it up, in my opinion, the criteria of success are not only money and glory but also high results in the particular field and social recognition. |
Подводя итог, на мой взгляд, критерии успеха – это не только деньги и слава, но и высокие результаты в конкретной области и общественное признание. |

To be Successful Means…
Which person can be called successful? In my opinion, the word “success” means different things for different people. One of the English proverb says, “So many men, so many minds.” I agree with this saying because people understand it differently.
For someone to be successful means to have a lot of money. I believe that money itself does not have much influence on person’s future because if a person has concrete goal he will achieve it by his hard work. In order to be successful he needs to work and to achieve his goal. In this case, he learns to be strong and value all money he has earned. On the other hand, some rich young people think that all doors are open before them and do not work hard but only use their parents’ money.
I think that nowadays it is impossible to be poor and successful. However, at the same time we cannot say that wealth automatically leads to happiness.
For me a successful person is an independent person. He has independent point of view on different things and he is not afraid of expressing his thoughts directly and openly. He should have strong character because life is full of difficult situations. He must overcome all these difficulties if he wants to achieve anything in his life and become a successful person. In other words, to be successful means to be persistent.
I think one of the characteristics of successful person is optimism. He must have positive thinking and never give up.
A successful person as I see it should have personal charm, the ability to cooperate with others and to work in a team.
It is good if a successful person has many friends though friendship and success not very often stand next to each other. I think so because if a person achieves much his friends become envious to his success and quit often can stop communicate and even become enemies.
In my opinion, young people of my age should understand that the main factors of success are highly- paid jobs, strong family and well-being. It seems to me that to be successful means to do something well. If a person has any talent, I believe, success will not make him wait for a long time.

Говорят что для успеха нужно всего две вещи: 1. знать, чего вы хотите; 2. определить цену, которую вы готовы заплатить за достижение цели. Но разве все так просто? Of course not! Еще нужна настойчивость, необходимо сделать ее своей лучшей подругой. Опыт — другом, накапливать его и не терять тетушку надежду. Кроме этого очень важно быть осторожным. Потому что, если жизнь вдруг начнет осыпать вас лепестками роз, скорее взгляните вверх, не летит ли вслед за ними хрустальная ваза. Let’s talk about success!
Essay on A successful person
It’s a fact that every person on the planet desires to be successful. However, what does it mean? To begin with, to be successful means you can go back into time and be completely satisfied with all the things you’ve achieved and done, without any regret. One of the main peculiarity of success is to have a goal, which you should reach no matter what you’ll have to face. For example, some people would like to create a stable family environment and a harmony in their homes. Others tend to get a profitable job and wallow in money. Furthermore, it’s believed that if you want to gain success you only need talent. However, some people reckon that hard work can compensate the lack of it.
In my humble opinion, talent as well as hard work is very important, because of some reasons, presented further. First of all, if you’re not gifted or endowed with necessary skills you won’t be able to become a profound specialist in the certain area or field of the modern world. But at the same time, you have to be a hard-working and industrious individual to have an opportunity to improve yourself. Secondly, it seems to me, that these two things are inseparably linked with each other. You know, they are like sufficient parts of the whole system.
Nonetheless, a talent alone won’t be enough to become a successful human. According to some people’s point of view, if a person is talented, they don’t have to do all their best to achieve something, ’cause that’s not urgent. I disagree with this idea. Without hard work, for each moment of triumph in your life, your skills won’t improve at all. It’s better not to take your talent for granted because there’s nothing without something.
In conclusion, I would like to say that the word «success» reminds me of this quote: «If you believe you can achieve.» The definition of this word states that it’s a successful performance or achievement. I think it’s the outcome of the challenges and hardships in life, no matter what goes on in it. If you can look back and say that you had a successful life, then nothing else matters.

Сочинение на тему Успешный человек
Это факт, что каждый человек на планете желает быть успешным. Однако, что это значит? Во–первых, быть успешным означает, что вы можете взглянуть на прошлое и при этом полностью быть удовлетворенным всем, чего вы добились и сделали, без каких–либо сожалений. Одна из главных особенностей успеха — достижение цели, которую вы должны достичь независимо от того, с чем вам придется столкнуться. Например, некоторые люди хотели бы создать благополучную семью и гармонию в своем доме. Другие, стремятся получить высокооплачиваемую работу и купаться в деньгах. Кроме того, считается, что если вы хотите добиться успеха, вам нужен только талант. Однако некоторые люди полагают, что усердная работа может компенсировать его отсутствие.
По моему скромному мнению, талант как и усердная работа очень важны исходя из некоторых причин, представленных далее. Прежде всего, если у вас нет выдающихся талантов или вы не обладаете необходимыми навыками, то вы не сможете стать видным специалистом в определенной области или сфере современного мира. Но в то же время вы должны быть трудолюбивым и прилежным человеком, чтобы иметь возможность самосовершенствоваться. Во–вторых, мне кажется, что эти две вещи неразрывно связаны. Знаете, они как важные составляющие целостной системы.
Тем не менее, чтобы стать успешным человеком, одного только таланта недостаточно. По мнению некоторых людей, если человек талантлив, ему не нужно стараться, чтобы чего–то добиться, потому что это неважно. Я не согласен с этой идеей. Без усердной работы за каждый момент триумфа в вашей жизни ваши навыки не улучшатся совсем. Лучше не принимать свой талант как само собой разумеющееся, потому что просто так ничего не бывает.
В заключение, я хотел бы сказать, что слово «успех» напоминает мне цитату: «Если у тебя есть вера, то ты сможешь достичь цели». Определение самого слова гласит, что это успешное исполнение или достижение. Я думаю, это прямой результат преодоления трудностей и испытаний в жизни, чтобы в ней не происходило. Если вы можете оглянуться назад и сказать, что у вас была успешная жизнь, то больше ничего не имеет значения.

To begin with, everyone understands success of their own way. Someone got the «five» and he is happy because only he knows the value of this mark. Someone won the competition and this is his success, because he worked hard to win. Someone needs a lot of money to be successful, someone needs a lot of friends. For me, success is my life, my birth, my family, my freedom. Every
person has his own freedom. We decide to be free or not. One people think that
freedom is an independence from their parents and other adults. Others think
that freedom is the freedom to do what they want and go where they want. In my
opinion, to be free means just to live and enjoy the sun and the sky, to love
my friends and my parents. Freedom is a peaceful sky, bright stars, the sun,
the sea and the warm sand…Начну с того, что успех каждый понимает по-своему. Кто-то получил «пять» и счастлив, потому что он знает цену этой оценке. Кто-то выиграл соревнование, и это его успех, потому что он много работал, чтобы победить. Кому-то для успеха нужно много денег, кому-то много друзей. Для меня успех — это моя жизнь, мое рождение, мои близкие, моя свобода. Каждый человек имеет свою собственную свободу. Мы сами решаем быть
свободными или нет. Одним людям кажется, что свобода — это независимость от
родителей и других взрослых людей. Другие думают, что свобода — это возможность
делать то, что они хотят, ходить туда, куда им хочется. По-моему, быть
свободным — это значит просто жить и радоваться солнцу и небу, любить своих
друзей и родителей. Свобода — это мирное небо, ясные звезды, солнце, море и
теплый песок…
Success is “The accomplishment of aim or purpose”, but is this definition universal? Can it be applied to each and everyone living on this planet? In this success essay, we are going to discuss the various perspectives on success. Success is a very unique concept and a powerful word. We live in a society where people compare and compete with each other’s success or we could say that we live in a success-driven society. A person is judged on his or her success but what does this word imply? Let us try to delve deeper into its meaning via this article.
Long Essay on Success for Students and Children
Success could be considered as the fuel on which the whole world functions efficiently. The perspective of success is different for every individual. For example, for one person success could be to get his or her dream job whereas for others it could be to spend a couple of hours with the family. In this essay on success important points such as how time management leads to success and how hard work and failure are related to success are discussed. This Success essay for students and children explains all the factors that determine success.
One of the most important factors that lead to success is time management. Time is considered to be the most precious asset of our lives. Time is everything and it’s an invaluable entity and once spent it never comes back. So it is important to learn how to manage your time. Time management refers to the process of planning and executing the task and goals to get the maximum. If done properly would lead a person to be successful in his or her life. The amount of time a person invests in improving himself will directly improve the chance of success.
Success and Failure
“Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts.”
Success and failure are inversely proportional to each other. If a person is successful he or she will directly drift away from failure. Achieving success is not easy, if it was easy everyone would have done it, but it’s not impossible. It’s important to know that the road to success is filled with failures and through those failures one becomes successful. It should be understood that failure acts as a stepping stone for success and gives the will to work harder towards his/her goals.
Success and Hard Work
Success is directly proportional to hard work. The harder one works towards his or her goals the easier it is to achieve success. Hard work doesn’t mean to do laborious work or work that will make you sweat. Hard work means not only working on your goals but also being optimistic towards life and believing in yourself that even if the journey is difficult it can be achieved.
Everyone should keep in mind that the road to success is not easy and it’s difficult but it’s not impossible. Besides working on your goals that would lead a person towards success it is very important to push your limit every day, take charge of your life, and keep learning.
It is very important to take care of your mind which could be done by eliminating negative thoughts and negative people from your life. Staying positive is a key to success.
How Can You Attain Success?
We have discussed what being successful depends on. Now, let us take a look at what we can do actively to attain that position in our lives.
Be a risk-taker: Good things come to those who are unafraid of taking risks. You must venture out of your comfort zone and try new things if you ever wish to experience new things and fulfill your goals.
Surround yourself with people who uplift you: Having the right kind of peers and friends is very important if you want to achieve success in life. These people will motivate you and help you strive to do better when you are struggling.
Learn from your mistakes: Failures act as stepping stones. If you do not learn from the mistakes you have made, you will never be able to grow and prosper. Do not be disheartened if you do not succeed in doing everything the first time itself.
Believe in yourself and keep working hard: There is no shortcut to success. You have to work hard and never give up.
Learn soft skills: Nowadays, you need to enhance your communication and your time management skills to be able to handle everything life throws at you. Work on bettering your soft skills too.
Remain dedicated: You cannot give in to distractions if you aspire to do well. Take short breaks but never let your mind wander away from the task at hand. Complete your work on time and stay dedicated to your goals.
Short Essay on Success for Students and Children
Success is achieved by those people who work harder every day and manage their time properly. Students should understand the importance of time management. Managing time properly is the key to success. Loss of time is considered to be a loss of opportunities. Time management is what most successful people like Sundar Pichai and Elon Musk do. It is important for students to know what they want to achieve in life and should have a clear vision of their dreams. If a person has a vision in the life of what they want to become, they don’t drift around and will not end up in the wrong place. After having a vision or dream one should invest his or her time in making that dream a reality. That could be done by putting in constant hard work. Sometimes even if one is not talented one can achieve success through hard work and determination. The road to success is not easy it is filled with failures and it is important to understand that through those failures one leads to success. In conclusion, it could be said that managing the time every day and working on your dream even if there are failures in your journey is considered to be the ideal formulae for success.
How Can Success Harm You?
We are all chasing the idea of success but it is important to understand that too much of anything can become toxic or harmful in the long run. You might become so obsessed with being successful that you start disrupting your emotional and physical well-being. This can have rather negative long-term consequences. Moreover, failures are a part of life. If you do not stumble even once, you might become boastful and arrogant. This will drive away even your closest family members and friends.
There is another side to this debate. If you chase success too much, you will not be able to handle failure. This can lead to depression and the development of several severe mental-health issues. To avoid this, you must focus on all the aspects of success and not run after materialistic accomplishments.
What is a success? How is it defined? It can be defined as achievement of your goals or even having small occasions where you feel to have achieved something. Whatever it is, it surely brings a smile to your face and brings happiness in your life. But even a robber feel it a success on committing as successful robbery. Can it be termed as a success?

Short Essay on Success – Essay 1 (100 Words)
Success is much more than riches, power or fame. Success is simply the feeling of satisfaction and happiness one gets from leading a particular way of life or carrying out a particular activity. Success in any field or aspect of life can only be achieved through serious hard work and a little bit of opportunity. One of the most important recipes of success is determination and it might as well be the most important secret of success. To become successful, it is necessary to never give up until the aim of happiness and satisfaction in life is fully met. The happiness and satisfaction can be found in very different things in different people.
Essay on Success: Definition and How to Achieve Success – Essay 2 (250 Words)
‘Success’ is a very powerful word. Many of us run behind it; most of us want to conquer it. So, what is success all about? Does this mean acquiring money or fame? Success means different things to different people.
Definition of Success
The Oxford dictionary defines success as “The accomplishment of an aim or purpose”.
This is the definition of success in theory, but in reality it differs according to people’s interests and goals.
It is very important for every individual to define their own concept of success rather than following someone else’s footsteps. We must analyze what makes us happy, what gives us contentment, and what motivates us. No one can list out our needs better than us.
True success means understanding our dreams and working joyfully to make those dreams come true.
How to Achieve Success
Many great people have suggested various ways to achieve success. But the real secret ingredient to nail success is to believe that we are already successful. With this strong affirmative thought, success can be easily achieved if we follow these three success factors:-
- We should follow our passion because that is where our heart and soul is. When we follow our passion there is no need for us to put any extra effort.
- The path to success is always challenging. We should build confidence to face any challenging situations.
- The third and most important success factor is discipline. When we work in a disciplined manner, things will automatically fall in place.
Conclusion
If we stick to these three factors, nothing can stop us from tasting success. Success is a journey which continues even after the goal is achieved.

Qualities for Achieving Success
One should not regret their decisions taken in the past and must refrain dwelling in the past. We must give deep thought before taking any decisions and uttering words from the mouth. For making a successful decision one must ask questions to oneself like: What Do I Need To Do? What Will Be The Outcome? Will It Be Worth Doing? One must keep the emotions for success and failures intact and should not showcase it to others. Successful people never wait for applause or acknowledgement of their work as they eventually get it. To become successful one must keep friends close and enemies closer. A successful person never demeans the weak and never underestimates anyone.
Conclusion
To become successful one has to understand what is important in that instant, recognize and work on the weaknesses, take criticism and hold on to the strengths. From a broader perspective Success defines the contentment, peace of mind and sheer happiness that is achieved. One should remember that only perseverance can lead the path to success.
Essay on Success: What is Real Success – Essay 4 (500 Words)
Introduction
Real success is something we should all strive to attain. Real success can simply be said to be achieving a higher position or very high position in our chosen field or area; it can be politics or business or even education. In the world we live in today, we have equated success to riches, prosperity, fortunes, cars, houses and so many mundane things. We believe that once a person has enough money to be able to afford what he or she wants, the person is successful. This is a total and complete misconception that will be discussed here.
Money isn’t a measure of success?
While it is important to note that having money is a part of being successful and you can classify as rich person as being successful, money is not all that success is about and we have a lot of people around us that are seemingly rich but still count themselves as not successful. In fact, sometimes we see wealthy people and conclude that they aren’t successful. If this is true then we can safely conclude that success is deeper that money or other superficial and physical things can we might acquire or own. Money is very important to success in life but it is not a necessity and neither is it the only key to success in life.
What is real success?
Real success is way beyond the physical things we can see, real success is all about the feeling of satisfaction we get when we accomplish a task or do something, it is the happiness we get just by remembering what we have achieved and how we did it, real success has to do with a lot of positive feelings about ourselves and pride in what we have been able to do. As we can see, real success can only be achieved within one’s self and that is why a lot of people who we think are successful still believe they aren’t just because they aren’t happy with what they are doing or they feel they can get so much more out of life. From this, we can see that it is very important to attain true success in life.
How one can attain real success
For one to be successful, the first and most important thing one needs to do is to set goals and objectives. Only through the setting of goals can one really have something to pursue and claim success when we got those things or meet the set goals and target. A very important ingredient in achieving real success is determination. If one is going to get real success, one has to be determined to never give up no matter what the situation might be. Another very important ingredient is hard work as we can’t expect to be successful if we don’t work hard and do all it takes to meet all of our set goals. It is important that we get all the skills that are required for us to be successful in our chosen field.
Essay on Success: Success and Hard Work – Essay 5 (500 Words)
The yardstick of success varies from people to people. The success story of an individual begins from the moment of his/her birth. A human child begins the winning streak by challenging every obstacle from the moment of conception to delivery. So no human is ever a failure, and hence confidently we can say that the very existence of every human in this word bear an element of success.
At the primary level, success lies within the parameters of cracking competitive exams and identifying one’s aptitude as to which profession the individual can flourish. On broader terms, a successful life is indeed a happy life reflecting upon how far one has reached. Success is not just related to material success.
How to become successful in life?
Nobody has ever become successful within a split of a moment. It is not an arduous task either. Strong determination coupled with hard work is the key to success. The first step to any attempt is to set the goal. There can be short-term goals, and long-term goals and both play a significant role on your road to success. Once the target set, then you have to do strategic planning. It is advisable to set a time frame as well. It will enable you to evaluate yourself on a regular basis. Fixing a time frame can also check into our procrastinating nature.
The next most important factor to become successful in life is hard work. It is the key to success. The adage rightly says that ‘no pain, no gain.’ You need to keep in mind that nobody else is going to do what we ought to do. If we put little effort and saw the seeds of hard work and perseverance, then we are sure to reap success and bounty. If you have strong willpower and the fire to ignite your dreams, then nothing can pull you back.
Stay focused on your objectives rather than hoping:
You can inspire yourself by being a self-motivator and critic. It opens room for self-improvement and appreciation. As it is said that ‘well begun is half done,’ do not hesitate to sparkle a start. Once we get a push, the rest will fall right in place. Even if we stumble down a couple of times, do not let go of our dreams. Failures are part and parcel of any successful entity. Mistakes are quite common and what needs to do is that we acknowledge them, and bear them in our mind. It ensures that we learn from the mistakes and in turn do not repeat them.
Nobody has ever been successful overnight. Patience is yet another golden rule. Just convince your mind that you are strong enough to be successful, though not today, at least some day. Never be disappointed if you lose. Trust in yourself and believe that you will reach there and you deserve to reach there. Your strength and weakness define the person you are, and the realization of it is rather important. Selfless dedication and hard work will definitely get you there.
Once you achieve your goals, you can be a strong inspiration to others. There is a warrior in you and never shut it down. You are capable of climbing higher and boom into a fantastic personality. Whatsoever, live a humble life, spread positivity and bear the torch to others’ road to success.
Essay on Success: Education is the Road to Success – Essay 6 (650 Words)
Introduction
Saying education is the road to success is just another way of saying education is very important for all of us in life, without education there would not be a lot of progression in both our individual and collective lives as human. It is very important that we get education in order to get success in life. Most times, people generally limit education to the four walls of a classroom or a school.
Education has roots in every area of our existence; education can be said to begin from the home, parents and family members educate and train the children on good characters that they should imbibe and teach them to remove some habits and characters. All of these good characters imbibed by the child through education at home can help the child become very successful in future.
We all know that without good characters and morals, it is extremely hard to become successful or make it in life as people would not want to be associated with such person. We are also educated on good communication and interpersonal skills that are very necessary for us to make it and become successful in life.
Importance of education to success
We need to know the true value and worth of education. Education helps to facilitate our skill, knowledge and learning; it gives us a different view of the world and refines our personality, helping us to build very positive attitudes. Education is a totally essential tool in ensuring a bright future.
Education can serve as a tool in achieving anything and everything good about life. When we get a high level and degree of education, we earn respect and recognition from our family and the society at large.
Education can go a very long way in changing our thoughts and level of reasoning; it broadens our worldview and provides us with the opportunity to get knowledge and technical skills that are highly needed in life. We can improve our knowledge level and skill by watching educational documentaries and programmes on the TV, reading the news and keeping up to date with all of the happenings all over the world, reading a lot of books that can educate us. Education can go a long way to make us into more rational and civilised people. Education guarantees our place among people in the society and can help us achieve all of our dreams and aspirations in life.
Education and success
Success is the goal of all of us and it is our mission. Life can sometimes be full of different opportunities and challenges. Success can only be attained if we have all of the required and needed tools.
The most important tool for success is education because without education, we wouldn’t be able to have a wide view of the world and be able to innovate and develop. A lot of youths and children today cite the examples of the successful people that didn’t graduate from school and still went ahead to be successful in life. Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook famously did not graduate from Harvard university but still went ahead to become very successful. The truth is even though Mark didn’t graduate, he was well educated and wouldn’t have been able to start Facebook if he had no knowledge of coding and wasn’t enrolled in Harvard at all. From him, we can learn that education isn’t limited and can basically be any way of widening our knowledge and improving ourselves. We should never confuse education with getting a diploma or a degree. Only education in or out of school can make us be successful in life and give us the true career we want.
Without education, life would be totally meaningless without education. The only path to true success in life is education, every one that has been, is and would be successful in life needs education to do that.
Long Essay on Success – Essay 7 (1000 Words)
The modern world has a way of doing things, that is, modern man has his own particular view on how things should look. That view is completely different from the perspectives upheld by those who came before us, so to say. Like the ancient Greeks were obsessed with performing heroic deeds, or medieval European Christians with martyrdom and upholding saintly principles, we can argue that modern man has an obsession with success. Or more precisely, one aspect of that new worldview is to compare people between each other through the notion of success.
In a way, the beginning of the 21st century is preoccupied with the concept of success more than ever before, both individual and collective. That fact can is seen in many aspects of our daily lives, people are not just oppressed with celebrities and successful people they want to live that lifestyle or achieve some sort of greatness. Looking at the current state of things one is encouraged to analyze the situation further and to find the reason behind these phenomena, or at least to offer a new perspective on worldwide trend.
What Makes a Person Successful?
There are many ways a person can be successful. Most people will think of celebrities, politicians, artists, entrepreneurs, etc. They will think of someone who is known the world over because of the thing they do, the thing they are good at. That’s all fine, but there are successful people who do not like to be celebrities and there are, most definitely, celebrities who cannot count as successful people.
What then makes a successful person? Is it how they do things? Is it what they get in return? Is it in the number of things they can amass in their life? Most of those things can count as some part of our overall image of such a person. But, how can we define it? What is it actually?
What I like is simple answers, they are usually correct and the most practical at the same time. Even though not all answers can be simple, this one is. When you look up the word success in any dictionary you will find that it is considered an accomplishment of an aim or a purpose.
Surely people were able to accomplish an aim or a pulpous in their lifetimes, even several, before the 21st century. Why is it that this noun has such relevance for the classification of people in this age?
History of Success
If we take a look at history, as I mentioned before, we can see that every age has a different occupation. When we talk about the ancient Egyptians, we do not talk about single individuals who made this country so great we talk about the collective in general. But also, we do not know the names of the people who actually accomplished the construction of the pyramid we remember the person who ordered it and did nothing to build it.
Sometimes when I think about all the great artists whose names I do not know, that built humanity in the name of kings, it seems as if it was forbidden for individuals to be famous if they were not born into some sort of noble family.
That drastically changed with the return of democracy to Europe and the liberation from the old-world view that separated people into casts, genders, and races. The new perspective born from revolutions gave every man the right to control their destiny and therefore the right to become successful, to achieve one’s dreams and ideals. Celebrating success can be seen as a collective celebration of the boundless human potential to do incredible things. Is it always so shiny? Or is there a dark side to the story?
Can Success Harm us?
We all know that being successful has its price and the people on the top can often be alone, because of the many sacrifices they had to make to get there. There are also countless examples of people who have achieved success professionally but their health and social lives fail because they cannot handle the strain that comes with maintaining that image of perfection that is expected of them.
Then there is also the psychological pressure any person can experience when they become obsessed with succeeding in the things they do. This emotion can cause such discomfort for people that they can freeze in key moments when they should be at the top of their game. Not to mention the depression some people experience when they come in contact with the images of people that exist on social media. There is a lot in being successful that we put under the carpet, or we just consider it as part of the game, something that we should bear. It does not have to be that way.
Sharing Success
People are made to be in a group and therefore everything they do they should do for each other; however, this fact of human existence has also been a breeding ground for nationalism and other group-oriented ideologies that made the 20th century so dark. The striving to be successful, the best, the most dominant will make people perform incredible and inspiring things but it will also make them give legitimacy to the worst monstrosities. How do we draw the line between the good and bad aspect of wanting individual and collective success?
Maybe we should stop looking at success as part of domination and make it part of what makes us authentic as human beings. What do I mean? If we start celebrating everyday people when they express themselves or make something that is fulfilling for them and makes other people grow we will support others to develop this aspect of their humanity and not concentrate on domination and subordination. We should support the celebration of collective endeavors that strive to enhance the human race as a whole and not adore individual examples as if they were the meaning of life.
The secret to success is not in money and fame, but in reaching that feeling of fulfillment when you know you have accomplished something that truly matters to you and other people around you. Dreaming big and then having it, it’s not impossible.
Essay on Success: Intro, Success in Life and Success for Students – Essay 8 (2500 Words)
Introduction
If you’ve been feeling a little low lately, this essay on success is sure to boost your motivation levels and set the goals right for you! We hear about so many successful people from all the areas. Some of them may be our favorite singers, actors, scientists, writers, social workers, politicians, and what not. Their achievements inspire the hearts of many and urge them to do better.
While we tend to focus on the sensation of the final outcome, the journey toward the goal is what matters the most. Sadly, human nature forces us to look at everything through the eyes of instant gratification. But the stories of success are not created overnight. In real life, any small big achievement demands tons of efforts and sacrifices.
If success is a building, consider each effort to be a brick, that has to be put in day and night tirelessly. Dreaming about achieving a goal in life is a lovely idea. Nonetheless, working on it every day is more than just a fantasy. You have to make it happen.
Do you pray or meditate? What happens at that moment? You sit quietly and focus all your attention and energy into the prayer or in watching those thoughts. Prayer commands sincerity. True worshipping is when the heart is pure and honest.
In the same way, success is a conscientious phenomenon. It asks for dedication and ethical diligence. For a real success, there are no shortcuts and there is no quitting too! Yes, we all get tired and hopeless. That doesn’t mean we have to give in to those feelings and quit. Keep working no matter what!
At times, when you feel that you can’t go on anymore, take a break. Rejuvenate yourself, talk to your loved ones, rest a lot, create a fresh perspective. And come back again with a greater force and zeal. You never know when the efforts will turn into the sweet fruits of success. One thing common in all the great personalities was that they never quit!
Personal Definition of Success
There is no fixed definition of success. You see, success is quite a relative term and its meaning changes from one person to another. However, it is sure to say that being able to feel content with your life and achieve what you dreamed of, is what makes you a successful person!
A prosperous life is not strictly about having all the materialistic comforts around. To some extent, this may be true. But, all in all, it’s only a microscopic way to measure someone’s success.
Let us introduce you to some of the most powerful quotes on success given by the different eminent personalities.
Everybody’s favorite, the great feminist and poetess, Maya Angelou says, “Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.”
Winston Churchill quotes it as, “Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.”
Not to mention, America’s former first lady, Michelle Obama who expresses her own views on success. According to her, “Success isn’t about how much money you make. It’s about the difference you make in people’s lives.”
In the words of Albert Einstein, “Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.”
Anne Sweeney, who remained the president of the Disney Channel from 1996 to 2014. In her words, “Define success on your own terms, achieve it by your own rules, and build a life you’re proud to live.”
It is evident enough how these miraculous and charismatic visionaries have described success in various terms and that there is no particular way to define it. The only authentic parameter should be your own satisfaction and happiness.
What is Success
We have understood that success is an abstract notion. Now, it is time to get to the bottom and explore some basic questions about it. Have you ever tried to inquire into what success means to you? What are the things that would make you convinced that you are a successful person now? Does your heart yearn for fame, money, peace, joy, love, or something else?
These questions are crucial. They make your mind clear and set your priorities more effectively. Always remember that a virtue that appeals to you may not mean the same to another person. Everybody has their own preferences and goals in life.
The bottom line is regardless of what the goal is, we can each be successful in our lives as long as the achievement makes us happy and content. It could be your education, a well-paying job, having a loving family, social security, or freedom to live the way you want to.
Anything, no matter how small or big, that fills us with a sense of purpose and gratifies the heart leads to success. If you are a happy person and love your life, then success is yours! For a long time, our minds have been trained to believe that money is the greatest source of joy. However, it’s not true!
Undoubtedly, wealth is a strong means to create comfort and security for us. But if it was the only thing needed for success, why do the richest people still deal with depression, anxiety, fears, and failures? Have you ever thought about it?
Physical wealth does not guarantee an insusceptibility to dissatisfaction and failure. Thinking otherwise would only create a bottomless void within you. People madly run after money and career. And yet when they are well-established, they still may not feel the joy and peace within. What is the missing piece in their lives?
Success in Life
Life is a rollercoaster, isn’t it! We all have our own strengths and weaknesses. Overcoming your flaws and frailty is a victory in itself. If you are thinking of coming out as a winner in life, don’t confine yourself to monetary values. With money, you may feel “technically” rich and yet have no access to the truest joy.
There are many dimensions to success. But everything depends upon our ability to recognize them. What are these dimensions, by the way! Let us explore a few of them.
You must have heard the famous quote, “Health is Wealth”. We need to understand the hidden value of this quote today more than ever. Ask yourself, if you would be able to enjoy anything in the same way if you were suffering from an acute or chronic illness? No, but such physical ailments are a bitter truth to many. To these people, achieving a partial or full recovery, having a long and respectful life is a success.
For the emotional souls, having their loved ones around, giving them a quality life, and taking care of them is what counts as the real victory. A person who cares about the whole society, for him/ her the true meaning of succeeding would be providing the basic amenities to the underprivileged, fighting for human rights, or creating awareness.
And yes, the biggest of the aims could be as simple and meaningful as leading a peaceful life. It could be about not having regrets and ill feelings toward others. They could also be as big as winning a gold medal in the Olympics, breaking the stereotypes, getting out of a toxic relationship and having a stable life.
The point is, success cannot be put into a singular category. And comparing one’s goal with the other person would be like comparing apple to an orange, or fruits to vegetables. Each person is unique. Their journey of life is different and so are their goals and parameters of success.
Success for Students
The keys to successful academic life are open secrets. As a student, your progress depends on the level of self-discipline, dedication, and hard work. If you are able to pull off these habits in long-term success would never leave you. Right? Nonetheless, the matter is not so simple.
In today’s time, students are looking for “success” more desperately than ever! Considering the cut-throat competitions, it is quite understandable also. The pressure of family’s expectations makes things even more complicated. The students have no option except to excel in their studies, but at what costs?
First of all, academic success is dependent on a limited number of subjects. The true potential of a child or a young one cannot be fairly measured based on such a narrow line. Moreover, somehow we have come to believe that excellent grades are a must for a student’s survival in this world. Fortunately, that’s not completely correct.
The practical life is much more than a few subjects. Most of the things we learn at school and colleges are plain theories. The bookish knowledge hardly proves to be of any help in the real world. What makes you rich is the experiences you gain on a daily basis.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that grades and books shouldn’t be taken seriously at all. You need to understand that these things play a partial role in forming the ladder of success. The better word to focus on would be ‘growth’.
If winning the race and grabbing a seat in some reputed college takes a toll on your mental, physical, and psychological health, then, we are seriously doing something wrong here. After all, these are the same factors leading to the rising number of suicides among the youths.
Not getting good marks doesn’t mean that you are not good enough for anything. It just means that you haven’t explored everything yet. There are many great personalities like Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, J.K. Rowling, who were a failure on the scales of conventional methods. But they proved everyone wrong.
All you need to remember is that never lose faith in yourself. If you really love what you do and consistently pour all of your energy into that task, then, definitely success is waiting for you! Make a routine of your choice and follow it religiously. Stay punctual. Fix your eyes on the goal and keep working.
Success and Hard Work
You can only work hard when you are fit overall. A good health is not just about having a strong body but also a strong mind and willpower. For all these things, you need energy. So, pay attention to things that you are feeding to your sensory organs. This includes from the proper diet to releasing stress, stay positive, working out, having those around who believe in you.
Don’t just work hard on your curriculum only. Take charge of other aspects too. As much as possible, include healthy foods in the diet. Staying positive induces good hormones in the body and the effect clearly shows in your performance. To strengthen your mental health, meditate every day.
Sitting around greenery, talking to your loved ones, reading positive books, are some of the other ways to replenish your energy levels. Make sure to work out every day, or at least go for a 30-minutes walk. Keep yourself hydrated. Drink plenty of water and other fluids.
Apart from focusing on the positive steps, be careful of the negative factors too. For instance, any negative conversation or toxic people in your life may suck away all your energy and charm. Try your best to avoid these triggers. Not only that, distractions like television, online chats, social media, parties, etc. should not be underestimated.
Keep your body and mind clean like a temple. It will help you work harder and with more effectiveness. There are no shortcuts to success. However, prefer to work smart rather than work hard. Never ever neglect the amount of sleep you get. There is no substitute for proper sleep.
Lack of sleep makes you cranky. Your concentration and memory become poorer. The learning becomes slower. So, a million dollar advice would be to get sufficient sleep, that means up to 8-10 hours. A few hours may be up and down depending on the person’s body requirements.
It is okay if the hard work makes you tired. However, the whole idea of hard work should not suffocate you. They say that if you love what you do, you don’t have to work a day in your life! If the set goals don’t well-align with your heart, explore something that does. Your goals should be set by you and not anyone else.
Success and Failure
Do you fear failure? What is the definition of failure according to you? How important is a failure for success? Let us find some answers to these amazing questions and doubts that we all face within us. To make things easier, here are a few great quotes for you!
“Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.” – Robert F. Kennedy
“Giving up is the only sure way to fail.” – Gena Showalter
“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” – Thomas A. Edison
Must have changed your perspective a bit! Well, it won’t be wrong to say that failure is a part of success. It is an inevitable part of that process. Like two sides of a coin. You cannot expect to taste success until you have learned to embrace the failures.
There is an interesting story about it with a strong message. There used to live a guy who owned a grand and luxurious car. That car always stayed inside the house. The man never drove it. One day, one of his friends visited him and asked the reason for not taking the car out on the road.
Do you know what the man replied? He said that he would take the car out when all the traffic lights are green. He was waiting for an impossible thing to happen! Can you believe that? It’s ironic but yes, we all do the same metaphorically.
When we don’t take steps due to the fear of failure, subconsciously, we are waiting for everything to be perfect. So perfect that there would be no tiny scope for failing. That means there would be no red lights at all. How is that even possible!
Leave the fear of failure behind. The only thing you should be scared of is not making efforts. Because that kills even the slightest chance of success. Be humble and embrace failure. Learn from your mistakes. These lessons are valuable. No book would teach you the way your experiences will.
Conclusion
Success is a cumulative and relative term. Without peace and love, money and fame don’t count as success. True success would satiate your soul. It would fill your life with joy. Shrug off the idea of comparing your life with someone else’s. Every person follows a different path and journey. That is why the meaning of success also varies from one individual to another.
No matter how difficult or impossible seems the goal, never quit. Keep working and one day you would succeed. Don’t confine your ambitions to just making money. Listen to your heart and follow it. The voices within us are our guiding lights!
Try to be a good person before becoming a successful person. Only an individual who has earned the love and respect of all has achieved the truest success.
