Past Successes!

Life is a journey backed up by successes and failures and these successes or failures are such that they can keep us going or destroy us depending on the mindset with which we welcome either of this two and also how we treat them as time goes on for us. Hence past success are those things and feat we have accomplished during our past endeavors, its those accomplishment with which people measure our tomorrow and infact our lifetime, yet these can destroy us in a very short time as compared to how long it took us to achieve them. Therefore, be careful of your past success. 

Past successes are meant to keep us on guide and track but they sure can become our nightmare the moment they become our pride, pride in the sense that we feel we can achieve it because we achieved it yesterday, yes of course! you can achieve it again but how sure are you that you will achieve it when pride instead of dignity has taken over you. Pride in the sense that you brag about your yesterdays successes with every little chance you get, forgetting that each day comes with new challenges that needs new approaches and as such the approach you used yesterday might not be the same approach which will give you the required success that you desire presently.

My past successes of a truth has become my immediate foe because I so much trusted in them that I need not put in efforts to gain knowledge and experience in order to make tomorrows stories a success too but nay I had been wrong in thinking so and as such I became a victim to my own pride which has led to loss of total self confidence in almost all my endeavors. I don't know about you but this is my own story. A story centered on trash but will be made to make sense, a story which if ignored might lead me to that place where nothing but self guilt and loss of self confidence will be the result, a story were truth has been dropped and replaced by reasons that could devastate anyone. Yet in all believe me, I have so many past successes which has become my foes.

What am I trying to say? All I'm saying here is that, the fact that you were a big success yesterday does not in any way guaranty that you will be a success today and tomorrow, it does not guaranty that you will also be that very best you used to be, believe it or not, when life is lived based on past success, today and tomorrow eclipse us in such a way that regret will be the outcome at the end of the road of life, regret in the sense that you had every opportunity to make it happen today and tomorrow just as you did in the past but failed to do so because you so much believed that all you needed do was follow the principles of the past and the answer to todays and tomorrows ever changing challenges will certainly showcase, nay this is fallacy of the highest order because you sure will fail and fail again not until you realize that yesterdays efforts are only todays and tomorrows backbones.

So with the knowledge that no human is perfect, it becomes relevant to say that my view about past successes might be wrong and to an extent does not even for a second makes sense hence it could be called "NONSENSE" but remember that out of every "NONSENSE" there is still "SENSE". Sense in the fact that if you relax yourself thoroughly and get to understand about life through another perspective other than that which you have presently, then I bet you sure will come to know that what I have just said about past successes are real, true and totally practical.

Furthermore, Personally I am so success oriented but I must say that a times we do fail because all there is to think about in us is just success and success because of the histories of our past which speaks nothing but of our past successes. hmmm..this is a huge problem in the sense that we only view life in one direction as such, we forget the other side where failure exist, this is totally good but I sure can tell you that we are closer to failure than success the moment we start doing this because of our past success. So all I can say here and need say here is BE CAREFUL LEAST YOU FALL NEVER TO RISE AGAIN.

Remember, we can make everyday of our life a success but one day of failure can destroy all of our success stories. It is easier to succeed and much more easier to fail.
