For being successful, one needs to not only work hard but make sacrifices
TURBAT: The world is full of successful people who will never be forgotten. They are the one who have done amazing work and contributed greatly to society, such that their names have been embedded in history forever.
The biggest reason of being successful trying again and again, as the ones who give up and lose hope eventually amount to nothing. Perhaps one of the main reasons of why we are not successful yet is because we do not set goals and lose hope easily. Our efforts stop at the first sign of failure. There are a countless examples of successful people who have failed multiple times in their lives.
Take the example of Thomas Edison, one of the greatest American inventor and businessman of all time. He is famously known for the invention of the light bulb and his imprint is present in literally every house in the world, or every time someone switches on a light.
During his quest to invent the bulb, Edison is said to have conducted 1,000 failed experiments. Yet he refused to give up because failure for him was just another step towards success.
Another example is that of Bill Gates, currently the owner of the company Microsoft, who eventually dropped out of university only to become one of the richest and most influential people in the world.
The fact is that for being successful, one needs to not only work hard but give many sacrifices. Those who are able to do this eventually achieve whatever they want in life
