Quite often we hear the quote "Success is Getting What You Want". In fact, my Google Search today has resulted with a total of 2 millions hits for that quote. It looks like most of us agree that success is the state of the accomplishment of one's target.
It's very similar to the dart game. You are considered "succeeded" when your dart hit the bull's eye.
All you need to do is to aim the bull's eye and throw the dart.
Aim...
Throw...
...and Hit!!
But. What would be if the target is missing on the wall?
Aiming and Throwing does not mean anything at all.
It's just like facing a blank wall.
You don't see anything beyond the wall.
You might end up stuck at the wall, not knowing the target and subsequently not having a desire to reach for any target. That is the reality that some teenagers are facing nowadays. Because of "missing direction", they loiter around, "hoping to find some inspirations".
Unfortunately, we don't have too much time "to wait" for the "inspiration". We need to look around and sometimes ask for opinions from others. Otherwise, we are wasting our time and energy.
As Steve Jobs once said...
You've got to find what you love...Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
