Out of the box : Success and failure

The definition of success and failure depends from individual to individual.  According to me, Success comes from the joy of influencing my subjectiveness and/or being influenced by other’s opinions about a single objective truth.  Success is achieved from many different ways, that’s all.

Appearance, Actions, Words, Art, Science, Spirituality, and the list grows endlessly.

Starting from the ground up, you can influence non-living things - the very act of moving an object, juggling few bottles etc.  At that point in time, one may say that those objects are under influence.  As we move up, influencing people seems the trickier part.  This is again in relation to situation, on whom one is trying to influence etc.  Very subjective!

Now, it is in my opinion that we are in constant search of those whom we can influence, or we can eventually influence.  What are we trying to influence?  Truth!  A larger objective!  And, only in the most subjective form each one of us have experienced.  Einstein being one of the most successful person at that.  Darwin to an extent but most agree he failed.

The secret being in the mental act of not concluding things!  So the next time your opinions are not accepted, be patient until they are.  The answer to the question “how long should one be patient?” may/may not be answered before the results themselves are successful, however.  And sometimes, it might not be in the same form that we may expect as well.  Since it is a “may/may not be” situation on the answer and the results are subjective, I guess it is logical to keep one’s hopes quite high!

Thanks!
