Is there anything called real success or failure in life?

This is the most sought question around the globe. There is always a constant  tussle between success and failure. Rather than trying to answer the above question first let us understand “what is self-realisation?”Realisation is not a big ambiguous word to understand .But still it plays a vital role in life. As we know realisation is nothing but understanding a event, incident etc. Usually learning happens after realisation.  In exams and tests, first learning takes place and then one attends test .But in real life, first test takes place in the form of personal experiences and then learning follows. A person who realises better in life is considered successful. Those people are one who will have long term goals and will strive to achieve it. These people can forsee things properly. This “self-realisation” comes under the category of intelligence (not knowledge). People with even “zero knowledge ” and with “high intelligence” are the one who achieve more than the people with “zero intelligence” and with “high intelligence” can achieve. For example Mahatma Gandhi, he was not an outstanding student in the school. But still he was strong in his belief about non –violence and was able to mobilise people and achieve freedom through non-violence which many world leaders felt it as impossible to achieve this task without bloodshed. We were able to spread information of floods which happened in Chennai because we relied on social network and media more than newspapers. But without any proper communication medium in those days, he was able to mobilise huge crowds and get freedom. This shows how strong his belief system was then. A strong belief comes out of self-reaisation or self-awareness. How to get this so called “self realisation”. Obvious answer is honesty. It is always not necessary for someone to be honest to the people around them. It is very necessary for someone to be honest to oneself. Honesty will tell how much is a person capable of or how much potential has one got. Everyone is born with equal potentials .But very few utilise them. No one knows any one’s potential in this world. No one knows a seed when germinated whether grows into a huge banyan tree or it grows into a mere mango tree. Life is all about rediscovering oneself ie, hidden potential. To bring out these hidden potential, there are many tools which can be used. These are nothing but often heard words- hard work, perseverance, humility , motivation etc. So, to conclude and answer the above raised question there is no real success or failure but there is always constant learning  ie, self-realisation.
