Success eventually embraces those who are firm believers that quitting is never an option. COVID-19 has proved to be highly challenging, and has touched in some way or other every family and business in the entire world. It is definitely capable of slowing personal & professional speed and progress; however, it is entirely incapable of halting or devastating human ambitions, fighting spirit and resilience. Bouncing back with renewed energy and ingenuity is inevitable. And, of course, one must do it smilingly.
Challenges are anyway an indication that there’s additional opportunity to improve techniques, develop fresher insights, look in new directions, walk the untried trails and expand the scope. Everything is within grasp and grip, if you believe in yourself and in the fact that a thinking human brain is the most powerful thing in the universe, and almost anything is possible if the right thoughts are created and structured in the right pattern.
The world is full of people who believe in this philosophy and understand the tenets behind it. One may find them all the time in all ‘corners’ of the ‘globe’. Though they might be renowned or little known, they have shown to others that it is possible to swim against the current, and eventually reach the estuary.
