 The Six Principles of Success for Students



            Note: This speech was originally delivered by me 2 years ago. I am sharing it here in the hope that the ideas and principles discussed in it may benefit students and readers.

My dear friends! 

         I want to share six powerful principles that can change the life of every student. These are the rules that turn ordinary people into successful ones. Let me begin with the first one “ Goal Setting.


             Friends!  Setting a goal is the first step towards success. It is very important to help you stay on the right track and save you from destruction. It encourages you to work hard focusing on your own works. It ensures that you are on the way to achieving your goals and ambitions. A man who doesn't have any great aim in his life is just like an animal. He is like a dead person, and he can 't do anything big in his life. But the person who has any big aim in his life is a living person, and this is the real person in this world . Because he knows what he is doing and what he has to do in the future.
So first of all we must decide what we want to do in our fourth coming days. We must create a particular goal in our life.

        The second point is " Hard work" : After fixing the goal, every student must work hard. Because hard work teaches us discipline, dedication and determination. When we work hard in our life we can achieve anything and overcome any obstacle.

        Third point is " Continuity/Consistency " Along with hard work continuity is very important. Less struggle with continuity is better than long and hard struggle without continuity. And prophet Muhammad ( S.W ) also said: أحبّ الأعمال إلى الله تعالىٰ أدومها وإن قلّ. The most beloved deeds to Allah are those that are done consistently even if they are few.

        My friends! Success demands from us a long time, patience, great endurance and power of tolerance. Because there is no shortcut to success. You must have heard the name of great scientist " Thomas Alva Edison ". He is the inventor of electricity bulb. Do you know? He failed 999 times in the way of inventing it , but he never gave up, tried again and again, finally he got success in 1000 times , and firstly brightened the world by his invention. At that time he became a vivid instance for the world. 

    So set your goals, run towards it, continue to work hard, never lose your hearts, never give up, never stop until you attend your destination. 

        Fourth point is "Art of ignoring": Remember, this world is so cruel, it will never forgive you, it will never let you do what you want, it will blame you , taunt you, so if you are on the right path, don't care about what people are saying behind you.

        Fifth point is "Time Management": You must have heard of the phrase "Time flies" It means that time passes very quickly and it waits for none. Time is most valuable thing in the life. It has no beginning no end, It can neither be created nor be finished, It plays an important and huge role in human life.

        Time is irreversible, Once a moment passed, it will never return back, One who takes advantage of time gets success in this world, and one who doesn't value time, is left behind in the field of life. Time is a great wealth, Only those who takes advantages of time, earn name and fame in this world. Time is very precious wealth. It is more valuable than money, Because we can earn back the lost money. But we can't get back the lost time.

In long, short we can say that time is the greatest gift of God. Moreover there is a saying "If you waste time, Time will waste you". Only this line is enough to justify how important and valuable time is.

        So we should utilize time wisely, shouldn't waste it. And we must remember every moment the quote of " Harvey Mackay", He said «time is free, but is priceless, you can't own it, but you can use it, you can't keep it, but you can spend it, once you have lost it, you can never get it».

        Sixth, last and most important point is: “Respecting teachers" :

        The relationship between a teacher and a student is very sacred. Where parents play a role in the physical development of a child the teacher also plays a vital role in the mental and skill development. It is written in Tafseer -e-Kabeer " A teacher is more merciful to his student than parents. Because parent only protect him from the fire and suffering of the world, while a teacher protects him from the fire of hell and suffering of the hereafter.

     My friends! Due to respect for the teacher a student becomes successful, otherwise he fails on each and every turn of life. And there is a famous Arabic saying:

"ما وصل من وصل إلا بالحرمة، وما سقط من سقط إلا بترك الحرمة"

It means that: If one who got what he got because of politeness and respect, and lost what he lost because of disrespect and dishonor. Therefore we must respect our teachers and pray for them. That is our moral duty.

Thanks to all of  you to read it completely , thank you so much.
