Success Come A Long Way. Well, this line came about on Friday when i was at Friday Prayer. Two friends of mine were talking and i was kinda eavedropping on them. There were talking about some stuff gotta do with the youth ministry. Then i sayed this line, Success Comes A Long Way.
In order to achieve something, one must work hard on it, spend much time and effort on it. Great businessmen will never tell you that they earned success overnight. And when i mean success, it is not just achieving, it is also maintaining it. Bill Gates created Microsoft and he is one of the world's richest men, but he did not stop there. He continue to upgrade his computers and continue to give interesting features to his creation. He is still continuing on what he do, no stop to it.
True, there are overnight success, but what's good of that success if you are not maintaining it. Take Singapore Idol for instance. The contestants got overnight fame and there is much hype about them. But when the competition is over, that fame decline. So in order to have that fame, they do gigs, perform in places, get in to tv shows and so on.
So i learned that in order to achieve my dreams and ambition, my passion, my hunger, my love for it must never die down. Everyday practise, listen to music as often as eat my meals, love that instrument and never take it for granted.
So guys, always remember that Success Comes A Long Way do not think it will be served to you on a silver platter.
