Hard Work and Punctuality in a Student’s Life
by Rohan
Hard work will inevitably lead to a successful life. As Margaret Thatcher quotes ‘I do not know anyone who has gotten to the top without hard work. That is the recipe. It will not always get you to the top, but it will get you pretty near.’ Hard work is the building block to success. It is evident that there are people who rely on their intelligence to attain success. But a person who puts in consistent and constant efforts will reach wherever he or she wants as long as he or she clearly sets his or her goals.
Some people have the notion that luck plays a critical role in achieving success in life. Well, this is absolutely false. Person might be lucky once or twice but not always. It is important to understand that the success attained by luck is always temporary whereas hard work yields permanent success. If we genuinely want to achieve something, it is only our tough grind that will take us to the top.
Striving hard can also help to develop and augment one’s brain’s capacity in terms of intelligence and talents provided a person is ready to strive regularly by keeping his mindset on his or her goals.
Being punctual is another key ingredient in meeting our goals and objectives. Being punctual, also shows we have respect for people and their time. Surely lateness in whatever form is unacceptable and people detest it. Being punctual also gives an indication of our ability to complete tasks given to us at the set times.
Furthermore, being punctual also requires a good measure of discipline. Once we can discipline ourselves, being punctual automatically becomes second nature to us. We’ll start to do it without being asked or forced into doing it.
