We all want success! And it feels best when there is no success in one’s own endeavours.
If we stay in the house and shout for success, success would not have come. We have to work day and night for success.
Looking for those who have been successful, but have suffered day after day! And there is a proverb that if you do not suffer, the suffering will not come.
So keep one thing in mind, “As much as you do, you will reap the rewards! Never expect anything more! Because expect more when you see that you have done more. “
