Energy, interest, and time.
These 3 things can transform failure to success. Mundane to meaningful and common to special.
Energy to push forward,to carry on against odds. Interest to carry on, to explore to learn. Time to try things, to put in, to keep the promise.
If you can incorporate these three words in your life, you will never fail or miss something useful.
Natarajan sir is the person in my student life, who displayed all this 3 traits. He was in GIE close to 15 hours on Saturdays and Sundays, giving one class lecture after another. So no doubt about the energy and the time he put it.
And interest in his subjects and love to teach is what propelled him.
So find your interest and begin to put in the time and energy to it and success will be yours.
