Success and Gratitude 成功与感恩

It is normal for people to strive to become successful. Indeed, most successful people have worked hard to attain success. And usually it requires an individual to work harder than the other people to climb up the success career. Hence, it is never easy to be successful.

However, no one can truly be successful without the help of others. There may be successful people claim their success solely by their effort. However, that is pride and far from the reality. The reality is that there are many things which are beyond our control. We can exercise regularly but there is no guarantee that we would not fall sick. We can also make calculated move but it doesn’t mean that we are able to make the right decision pertaining to our businesses. To push further, we have no control over our life span.

Therefore, it is wise to work hard, without which, a person can rarely be successful. Nevertheless, it is wiser to recognise one’s frailty, and be grateful for whatever success we have accomplished.

人们透过努力而獲得成功乃是正常的途径。事实上，大多数成功人士都是经过一番努力，通常他们需要比其他人更努力，才能爬上职业生涯的高峰，因此成功绝非易事。

然而，如果没有他人的帮助，没有人能真正成功。可能会有成功人士声称他们的成功纯碎是靠着个人的努力，其实这是一种骄傲，並远离事实。事实上，有许多事情是人无法控制的；我们可以定期锻炼，但不能保证自己不会生病。我们也可以进行计算，但这并不意味着我们能够在业务方面一直拥有正确的决策。更进一步而言，我们无法控制自己的寿命。

努力工作是明智的，缺乏努力，一个人很难獲得成功。然而，更明智的是一个人必须意识到自己的脆弱，并且常常为所取得的成就心存感恩。
