Persistence in Achieving the Destination

Go through a high-profile success story and you will find a humble beginning there. Every great destination requires a series of steps to reach it. And every step in its direction is crucial whether it is staggering or stable. Usually, people are disheartened and discouraged by their mistakes; they do not acknowledge the wisdom that such mistakes impart.

What a person would be, depends on where he is. The environment always affects influences, facilitates, and ultimately leads to a path that becomes one’s destiny.

A man starts a trivial job for survival, unknowingly that someday he would reach the top. A child in his tender age assists at a shop and ends up as a business tycoon. A man delivers newspapers on a bicycle and dies as a founder of the most circulated newspaper of the country. I found a person as a porter who unloaded the trucks of agriculture produce in my town: his son is now one of the prominent commission agents of the city. In most cases, evolution can easily be discovered through generations.

Doing Unconventional

There is a water carrier in the veterinary hospital in our town. He always assisted the veterinary doctor in handling the cattle dung their treatment. Then he began to handle them on his own at the doctor’s advice. After that, he began to treat the cattle even in the absence of the doctor. As the doctors do not visit the remote areas for examining the cattle on the sick list, he availed himself of the opportunity and became the medicine man for the villagers. Now usually he is consulted and requested to attend to the infected cattle in most villages and outposts. He is now Doctor Hayat. The life of the unwell.

Keep Yourself Steady

Generally, we cannot foresee the distant outcome of an insignificant opening. The very reason of our not attaching great importance to such trivial outsets. Who could say that a university gardener, called in for holding the legs of a camel during an operation, will one day learn out to be a high-profile surgeon and retire as the Chancellor of the university? Chances play a great role in such miracles but there’s no denying that mostly the environment chooses the line of action and leads gradually to an inevitable end. In this context, every person bears a succession of events that culminate in a success story of his life. These success stories and their study not only keep us steady in troubled times but also guide us and impart a great deal of enlightenment.

Opportunities and Success

Opportunity often lies in the hunt for it or keeping in touch with it. I know a poor woman who daily accompanied her son to his school in Islamabad. As she couldn’t afford the double fare, she stayed outside the school gate for six hours to collect his son. When the principal of the school came to know all of this, she offered her a job as a maidservant. One day her son became a pilot and she had no more need of that job.

Often there is an opportunity for those who may explore it. Sometimes when there is none, the persistent visits create it for you in some way or the other. And if you are persistent in your struggle. Nothing can impede your way forever. I have read about a great number of celebrated writers who were rejected by their publishers more than once in the beginning but their persistence was acknowledged at last as the great contributor to literature. Sometimes one does not succeed to find a job but if one is willing to do work, nothing can hold one back for long to convert one’s work experience into a job if you are a seeker, you will eventually be a finder.
