Failure is the Key of Success.

Failure is the Key of Success.

When a child borns, the process of physical and mental development starts. With the passage of time he crosses various stages. These stages demand struggles to keep pace with time and age. In this struggle the process of gaining and losing goes abreast. When he gains something, it is referred to success. On the other hand, when is loses something or unable to gain something desired, it is referred to failure.

It is the natural instinction of man to avoid failure and gain success. This forces every one to work hard. This doesn’t ordain every time. He has to taste the bitterness of the failure, only then he enjoys the relish of the success.

Some people are discouraged on their failure. On this account they give-up their mission and noble task repenting of their misfortune. 

Getting education is the one of the noblest missions of man, which is an undeniable truth.  It is a long process. In this process many students get failed. There are two types of students who come across with failure. The ones who work hard while the others who deserve failure. If a hardworking and able student fails, he should not be despair instead he should accelerate the tempo of hard work, trusting in God Al-mighty. For such type of students failure is a blessing in disguise. This provides him a golden chance to help realize his hidden potentials and paves the way of future.

When we look at the history, we see that many great people gained success after scores of failure among which one is Napoleon and the other is Sultan Mehmood Ghaznavi. These two renowned generals defeated the war for several times, but didn’t give-in and at last they one-over their enemies. Their unflinching determinations made them a part of history. In surah Alam Nashrah Allah Says;

{Indeed ease follows by existing hardship.}

The other type of students are those who shirk of hard work. They waste their time in futile. They are inadvertent towards their studies. Such type of students should repent of their un-success.  It is because; they gain nothing during the whole span of year. Such types of students depend upon unfair means that is cheating looking over their studies.

Keeping in view the above Quranic and historic quotations, if we ever taste the failure we should not be discouraged but grid up to achieve the desired goal as we believe that the failure is the key to success. I am summing up my speech with this couplet of Allama Iqbal.

  Thank you very much for listing me.
