    The document discusses the importance of hard work and perseverance in achieving success. It provides examples of highly successful individuals like Michael Jordan, Jerry Rice, Tiger Woods, and Lance Armstrong, who all attained great success through years of intense practice and overcoming significant obstacles. It emphasizes that a lack of natural talent is irrelevant and that true success comes from painful, demanding practice as well as the ability to keep struggling through failures and never give up until one's goal is reached, as demonstrated by Thomas Edison's numerous failed attempts at inventing the light bulb before succeeding. Success is defined not by current position but by the hard work and obstacles overcome to achieve one's goal.

    As Ben Sweetland rightly said, "Success is a journey, not a destination" "Unless you're willing to have a go, fail miserably,

    and have another go, success won't happen." Some one has rightly said, "A successful man continues to look for work after he has found a job. Research now shows that the lack of natural talent is irrelevant to great success. The secret? Painful and demanding practice and hard work Michael Jordan practiced intensely beyond the already punishing team practices. Had Jordan possessed some mammoth natural gift specifically for basketball, it seems unlikely he'd have been cut from his high school team. In football, all-time-great receiver Jerry Rice - passed up by 15 teams because they considered him too slow - practiced so hard that other players would get sick trying to keep up. Tiger Woods is a textbook example of what the research shows. Because his father introduced him to golf at an extremely early age - 18 months - and encouraged him to practice intensively, Woods had racked up at least 15 years of practice by the time he became the youngest-ever winner of the U.S. Amateur Championship, at age 18. Also in line with the findings, he has never stopped trying to improve, devoting many hours a day to conditioning and practice, even remaking his swing twice because that's what it took to get even better.
    On October 2, 1996, at age 25, Armstrong was diagnosed with late-stage metastatic testicular cancer that had spread to his abdomen, his lungs and his brain.But he didnt give up. In spite of this life threathening disease, where many succumb, he not only lived with by January 1998 he was already engaged in serious training for racing. Lance won the first of seven Tours de France just a few years later and afterwards In addition to 7 Tour de France wins, Armstrong won 22 individual stages (including 11 time trials).

    Intense hard work along with great skills shall help you win one success after another. There shall be innumerable obstacles strewn in your path towards success, however, what makes a man truly worthy of the success that he attains is the ability to keep struggling until he can reach his goal. Giving up after a few failed attempts makes you a loser. A truly successful man will keep trying and keep struggling until he perfects his art. Thomas Edison failed approximately 10,000 times while he was working on the light bulb and yet he never dreamed of giving up this is the hard work and the determination that marks a true success. Indeed, success is not measured by the position that you are in, today but the amount of hard work you put in and the number of obstacles that you overcome to reach your goal.
