Success = Working on NEGELECTED issues

Yesterday, I had a colleague of mine with whom I was discussing about how to be successful? During the course of conversation I said, it is easy to climb the ladder of success if you work on issues, challenges, and areas which are often neglected by masses. It made me to think for a while analyze the success of so many great men and women of excellence. Most of these visionaries were regarded as successful because primarily they undertook issues, challenge; and chose areas of operations which others believed to be not very important. Late Savitribai Phule believed in educational uplift of women and perused it in spite of opposition by many. Mahatma Gandhi took up issue of non-violence and freedom which many thought as impossible to achieve. Mother Teresa plunged into caring for orphaned kids. Baba Amte is working untiringly towards health care and rehabilitation of leprosy patients.

In self help guru Shiv Khera's terms these individuals did not do different things but they did things differently. They could succeed in their pursuit because they believed in their hearts that these causes though neglected by society and masses are significant ones to handle. Thus, if you believe in any issue, or challenge that many others feel not so very important, please analyze it critically and you would realize that there is great potential to succeed and climb the ladder of success. Thus,

SUCCESS = Working on NEGLECTED Issues.
