Hard work is the key to success. But only working hard won’t help you get success in life. There are other factors involved. Confused?
Let me tell you a story of two friends out of which one got rich and the other lagged behind even after putting in a lot of hard work.
Once, there were two great friends. The first friend used to work hard throughout the day but hardly got anything. Whereas, the other friend worked for four hours and used to help the needy and meditate the rest of the time.
When they meet after a long time they discuss their life with each other. The first friend asks his friend, “Why is it that you get success and money after working for just 4 hours and I remain poor even after working the whole day.” After hearing his friend’s complaints, the other friend smiles and asks his friend a question,” What do you have in mind while you do your work.”
The first friend replies, “I keep think about ways and mean of earning more wealth.” At this the second friend replies, “This is the reason behind your unhappiness and failure.”
“This is the reason behind your unhappiness and failure.”
He explained that,” One does not attain success by just working hard. Success is a state of mind. What is the purpose of working hard when you stay unhappy.”
“Mental happiness is very important for a successful life.”
“Mental happiness is very important for a successful life.”
He advised his friend to stay happy and calm under every circumstance. After hearing his friend’s advice the first friend started following the same thing and soon he became rich and successful in life.
