Success has a price to pay

---------
Most people want to be successful or want to
win in their pursuits, be it exams, business or
life, but only a few are successful. Simple
reason is the fact that there is a price to be
paid in terms of sacrificing leisure, sleep or
sometimes sacrificing your entire comfort zone.
Most people are success hungry but too lazy,
too reluctant to pay the price and blame their
bad luck which is the easiest scape goat. You
lose because you simply are too lazy to follow
your dream and you don't want to take risk or
put the bet on yourself. You look for safe
options and blame luck in the end. If you are
looking for a magic formula and you hope it will
work, trust me, odds are really against you.
Think of athletes, sportsmen they sacrifice time
in practise in childhood which you spent
watching TV and then when they strike gold, I
have heard many people complain that
cricketers get it easy, is it so? I meet so many
people every day and many are curious, many
have ideas but only a few with intent and drive
to convert thoughts to action.
Simply put to win there are prices to be paid. I
will quote an often quoted line,"there is nothing
like a free lunch."
