There is a popular saying, “A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.” Every step taken is a success, and each step to be taken is an aim to be achieved. So, success can be simply defined as victory over aims and objectives. Every individual desires to get success in life but very few accomplish it as life is filled with failure and success. The most memorable moments of successful people are the ones of being successful, such as winning medals, holding trophies and being honoured for their outstanding performances.

But achieving success is not the main thing; what makes a difference is how and what type of success you achieve. Standing first in class genuinely is a great success, while winning thousands of rupees while playing cards cannot be termed as success. Success leads to perfection. First of all, one should struggle to achieve something in order to be successful. Then they should use their efforts to be perfect because being perfect means being the most successful even among successful people.

Achieving success may be a tough job as a successful achiever should have good manners, willingness to learn, a lot of passion and obsession for success. Furthermore, concentration and continuous endeavour indeed drives one towards the path of success. We should not be proud of ourselves but make others feel proud of us. We should be honourable to be honoured and we should keep in mind the maxim, “Winners don’t do different things but they do things differently.”

So, let’s try to be successful achievers to be adorned with adjectives such as overwhelming, awesome, marvellous, and extra-ordinary for the sake of our own name and identity.
