Taking birth on this amazing planet is a wonderful opportunity given for all of us to utilize our life to unleash the joy of tasting success.

5. “Rather than expecting, accepting life in the way it is will catalyze your journey towards success.”
Life is a sequence of surprises. Everything in life including the next minute of it, is a huge suspense. Expecting is not a cure for anything that happens in our life. Relying on the principle of doing our part and leaving the rest to the almighty help us win our desires and invoke an array of bliss into our lives. Accepting the situations, circumstances, people, thoughts, challenges and flaws acts as a medicine to chase away all the hindrances and burry the inferiorities. Receiving things which come to us and utilizing them as opportunities, allow us to portray our potent qualities to the world. The tests that life gives us are all aids to increase our level of patience.
Jane Jacobs never overlooked the fore-happenings of her life by expecting things. She rather chose to accept every bit of her life and shaping in the way she wanted to. The American-Canadian journalist, author, and activist was best known for her influence on urban studies. She voiced over the unhealthy and negative mindsets and attitudes which prevailed in the society during her time, through her influential writing skills. She employed one of her book, The Death and Life of Great American Cities to introduce sociological concepts to people. She tremendously participated to lead the slum clearance program in her neighborhood. The true leader doesn’t need formal education grade and certificate to bring the world to the right path; she faced criticism from the male-dominated field of urban planning but, as a mother and a writer, she essentially did her part and made space for positivity to land.
Life is beautiful! If it’s ever contaminated, it’s because of the people who live in it. Now is the time for all of us to purify our lives and ways of leading them to profoundly discover what the true success is. Tell yourself that you’ve decided to invite success to your life by bettering your life and start now!
