s u c c e s s

The road to success is an endless one, as a perpetual success in life does not seem possible. It feels as though the moment just before success is more fulfilling than it’s actualization. The excitement and anticipation seems more satisfying. One realizes that down the road, material success becomes futile. In an absolute sense, every attempt is a failure unless it leads to the transcendence of death. If rejections and failures teach the best of lessons learned in life, it can not be called a failure in the long run.

Human mind or our ego inherently has an air of insecurity inside, a feeling of inadequacy, a sense of loss, a need to have more to be fulfilled. As we try to make meaning out of everything on our way, we edit and update our old beliefs and value. If we can not come in terms with this 'moving focus' each and every moment, we are bound to be restless.
