Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be.

Your own path

There are countless pathways that lead to success and fulfillment. So it makes very little sense to try and squeeze yourself onto the same pathway as everyone else.

There is virtually no limit to the number of ways in which your dream can be reached. And there’s certainly no reason to give up on that dream if just one of the most obvious ways is blocked. By using the slightest amount of creativity and imagination, you can get around just about any obstacle. You can fashion your own special, one-of-a-kind pathway to success.

There is much that you can learn from the achievements of others. However, you cannot count on being able to simply imitate the success of someone else. Instead, learn from the success of others and integrate it into your life in your own unique way. There’s no need to push and shove your way onto the most obvious and most crowded roads that lead to success.

Always, there is another way, a creative, innovative way that’s just right for you. Figure out what it is, follow it with all you have, and enjoy the success that will surely come as a result.
