Before we decide to go anywhere, we must first choose our destination. To some this may be easy. Some people are born with the ambition to become a doctor or an astronaut. But there are many others who find their path as they travel down life’s winding streets. There are also those, who create their own path. Whichever class you belong to, a goal is always important.
Accept, Adapt and Achieve. These are the three watchwords for success in today’s ever changing situation. Sticking to goals is vital. But knowing when to change them requires wisdom and humility. The realization that our goals need to be modified may not be very easy to accept. To change the path that we’ve been following for ages takes courage to say.
It’s true you are unique, you are special. But that doesn’t mean you can’t benefits from what other have to offer. Simply relying on your personal experiences may not be enough. You can always learn from the experiences of others. Take a page from someone’s book and write it in your own handwriting in your book of life. Keep your identity, follow your own dream, but a little help does not make your success somebody else’s.
But there is something more difficult than saying ‘Yes’ – the ability to say ‘No’ at the right time. This is what draws the line between being an achiever and a push over. You need to set your priorities right. Everyone has individual ideas of what’s important and what’s not. It’s true that your priorities shouldn’t be guided purely by external forces, but at the same time, you should strike a balance so you don’t end up with selfish ideals. You have to decide what it is that you’re willing to give up for the right reason and what it is that you’d defend with everything that you have.

A well-beaten path does not always make the right road.
