THE PATH TO SUCCESS

Funny but truthful image. It explains why only a few people reach the top and succeed.
It seems to me that second image should be much more complicated! =)

Thanks

I actually think it looks like a striaght horizontal line with peaks.

Before success comes in any man's life, he is sure to meet with much temporary defeat. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and most logical thing to do is to quit. That is exactly what the majority of people do, and this is the reason why only a few reach the top.

Success is not an easy road, and that is something people don't fully understand. When something doesn't go as they expected, they give up. They don't know how to handle failures. You have got to analyse your failures and find the lesson they tought. Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Those who pick themselves up after defeat and keep trying, arrive.

The differences between the people from the first and second graph, is that those from the second know that when your plans fail, that temporary defeat is not permanent failure.

Giving up is the only form of failure. The rest is just learning.

Haha - VERY insightful, many do not know this truth.

As my Father always said,

"If you fall down, get up and try, try again."

Success is indeed like a long paragraph. All the punctuation marks within the paragraph stands for failure. Only the last full stop at the end of the paragraph stands for success.

Great insights guys!!!

Just to share, sometimes I tell myself that being on the journey to achieve success (be it the ups or the downs) is already considered a part or a "little" success in some ways

It is very true, though the first picture can also denote that a person with focus gets to their destination faster than one who is swayed along the way in picture B .......... both ways you are right Great Mind!

Determination always helps, but in business there are always up and downs, it is very difficult to get straight to your goal all at once, and those who don't get discouraged after a temporary defeat and don't give up are those who are able to reach their goal succesfully. I think that is what the OP wants to transmit with this picture.
